A news website run by a VC firm that is also a startup accelerator? "Countercultural"?

Yeah, but the website community is decidedly anti-startup so that does make it countercultural in the local culture.

I've heard a lot of strange things on HN but this one absolutely ends up in top-ten. How in the world is HN anti-startup? Sure, there is some anti-startup sentiments in the comments usually, but there is also comments anti-anything in the comments. HN is very much a startup-centric place if anything.

Not at all, I'm saying that HN is coopting the word "hacker".
