I think you are incorrectly extrapolating to the entire community based on your personal experience. You are assuming that most of the readers at this site are working in a similar professional context that you do. You are also assuming, but all of those people who work in a professional context, do not also “cook at home.”

It’s OK if you did not relate to the article. But I certainly did!

For what it's worth, I think HN audience by nature of spending their free time learning about interesting techy things is more likely to be doing their own "home cooking".

I agree with the sentiment of the poster above if applied to the majority of professional software devs though.
