Years ago, when Jolt Cola was released, the media trope of caffeinated programming fuels began in earnest. Of course this was subsequently bolstered by naming two popular programming languages Java and JavaScript in the 1990s. (Java, for the uninitiated is a common word for coffee.) The naming of Cocoa, was also a sarcastic pun on the whole Coffee thing. We had CoffeeScript a few years ago... Anyway it's cues like this which help prop up them meme of Coffee/Caffeine == programmer fuel. With that sort of cultural baggage it's neither here nor there whether there's been any studies... It's simply lore, and holds about as much validity as the beard length gag. |
