You are right, this is not Hacking News. And I regret my vehemence.

Still, the livelyhood of the thread is not much of a factor in my opinion.

Though rock-climbing is in itself interesting (maybe more than average to devs) it has no direct link to being a hacker/dev.

It borders on 'lifestyle' kind of content.

Such civility is always welcome. Thank you!

Isn't this in contradiction with your first paragraph, though? This site is specifically and explicitly about things that are of interest to hackers, not things that are directly linked to being a hacker or developer; and it seems that the best way to gauge what is of interest to hackers is to get together a community of them, such as we have here, and see in which discussions they participate.
