The innovation is related to the interactive code snippets.

I've been trying to get an answer about this, but no reply so far. What will make a great post on Hackernews that will give a lot of points? Lets say if I design an innovative new search engine , quantum computer or Go AI and put it here on Hackernews, will I gain lots of points ? I saw some posts where the user gained like 200 - 300 points at once.

sure and it's cute that you can interact with them. but wouldn't a codepen or jsfiddle or sequentialjs snippet good enough.

CodePen and JsFiddle don't allow you to display several code snippets at once. If you embedd a JsFiddle inside a blog post using iframes, you cannot share data and code between the snippets.
