This is obviously not representative. The survey data may be true but it doesn't describe the industry, only the rehab patients. Article is clickbait BS.

"Along with controlled substances, heavy alcohol use was reported by tech executives. Half of APN's respondents self-identified as heavy drinkers, or those that consume between three and seven alcoholic drinks a day. 51% of respondents report smoking cigarettes or nicotine vapes within the last three months."

In reality, tech execs generally don't smoke. Or vape. Preposterous.

A "random" group of alcoholics in rehab in Colorado however, sure, I buy that half of them smoke or vape.
