There's a big disconnect between many organizations that use libraries, compilers and tools from OS packages on stable Linux distributions, and the HN/SV crowd that uses docker, or pip/npm/go get/cargo even on production.

What's SV?
i think silicon valley.

hn has a big crowd of retro-lovers and nojs browsers.

Judging from the downvotes when suggesting to selectively disable js, that crowd is a small minority.
I comment on nojs matters often, and I've found that a lot depends on my tone and writing style.

If I'm terse and rude, I definitely get downvotes. If I'm verbose and explain my points, it's less likely, though still possible.
