To be fair, we're on a forum that was originally called "Startup News," created by a billionaire venture capitalist and run by a startup incubator. People do question the SV narrative, but this is still the lobby where all the people who drink the Kool-Aid hang out.
When maia arson crimew's site got linked here, she put a notice on top of her airline database hacking article with some disparaging commentaries about HN.
