The workplace is a social hub for many people, although it seems many on HN don't care to socialize at work much.

Sure, but it depends on the company. I've made friends at every place I've worked, some lifelong, and I do miss that, but on the balance, work never really dominated my social life. I always had other friends too.

people also hire those who fit the company culture. It's important if you are to spend the rest of your life in the same room. Better to just hire for skill.
