I don't think the term hacker really reflects the concept of Hacker News. Sure, but what one word could? I'm not sure there's any word that you could replace it with that would work better. The mandate of the site is "stuff that would be interesting to a hacker; i.e. an intelligent person who tinkers." "Exceptional or interesting technology" is 100% on-topic. Please submit some more of it! This site isn't necessarily meant to be "entrepreneur news". One may ask why, therefore, there are so many business-centric articles; I think it's probably because there's a critical mass of YC people here (both funded entrepreneurs, potential applicants, and interested fans). The community works with a lot of different technologies, and a lot of different hobbies which wax and wane over time, but YC people are by definition very interested in business and they're interested right now. |
