I'm wondering the same. I never used to see this back when I lived in Europe and I don't see it here in Asia. It's probably fair to call it a SV thing.

- bowlofpetunias 13y agoIn Europe there's usually alcohol and socials, but as far as I have encountered no binge drinking or hard partying. Nothing anyone who doesn't drink would feel uncomfortable about. I don't think it has much to do with the presence of bars or alcohol, but more with the local culture. And in the US, the drinking culture as a result of the absurdly high drinking age is totally juvenile. My guess is that programmers fresh out of college bring that culture with them.
