Why is this on HN? It certainly doesn't meet the criteria of being remotely interesting and there doesn't seem to be any intent to share the results back with the community.

Thanks for sharing your opinion.

It is in on HN as we are want to find out how startups provision their production environment and HN is full of great startup founders/workers and early adopters. We made sure it is clearly marked with Ask HN.

Also, as I mentioned in reply to another commenter, we are going to publish 3 pieces of information after this: results, post on our experience with HN surveys and also charity donations.

It certainly a good place for you to poll. I was wondering why it was upvoted to the front page.

Ask HN is generally used to engage in discussion and get answers in the forums, from which everyone benefits, not to post external, private surveys.

(BTW, you labeled it Ask NH, not Ask HN)

There's some special treatment of job ads for YC companies. Maybe this post was done using the same back door.
