>The Tesla story is interesting to 'good hackers' because it is a company that does exactly the kind of thing that 'good hackers' love to read about

That it like saying Physicists will be interested in the bowel movements of Einstein because he is a brilliant physicist..

Tesla may be an interesting company to "hackers" or what ever. But does the article contains anything of that sort? If HN is filled with the quarterly reports of every "interesting" company, that would be bad, right?

If it contained a technique, or an interesting idea that Tesla is employing, then it would have been ok.

Clear?

To be fair, quarterly reports for companies like Apple, Facebook, Twitter, and Google often make the front page. And HN is just as interested in Tesla as those companies. Furthermore, this is a particularly interesting quarterly report for Tesla, as it comes after Tesla faces serious questions about its production shortfalls, on top of the other bad news (fatal AP crash, huge recall for Model S, Moody's downgrade) it has received this past week.
You do realize how HN works right? If none cared it would not get upvoted.
