n. Hackers display an intense tropism towards oriental cuisine, especially
|
|
|
|
Chinese, and especially of the spicier varieties such as Szechuan and Hunan.
|
|
|
|
This phenomenon (which has also been observed in subcultures that overlap
|
|
|
|
heavily with hackerdom, most notably science-fiction fandom) has never been
|
|
|
|
satisfactorily explained, but is sufficiently intense that one can assume
|
|
|
|
the target of a hackish dinner expedition to be the best local Chinese place
|
|
|
|
and be right at least three times out of four. See also ravs , great-wall ,

|
|
|
|
Korean, Burmese, and Vietnamese cuisines are also quite popular.
