A comment on Hacker News for Hackers.

This is certainly a different take on Hacker News data.

One of the thing I honestly dislike about comments on Hacker News is the advocation of the No True Scotsman-esque definition of "Hacker," where the only thing that matters is code and how it's used. In 2017, there's more to being a "Hacker" than just what low-level language is being used.
