> Anyway, it is important to remember that if you're actively on HN, you're not a normie and you probably have a very skewed view of what normies do and use.

And what if you're on HN and don't use what other are using there? I don't use AI. I don't use social media. I don't use JS frameworks. I don't use Go or Rust. I bang out HTML/JS/CSS by hand in an editor that is not VSCode when I write UIs. I also don't use Docker. Am I even allowed here?!

Yes, you are in fact absurdly overrepresented on here, not just compared to general populace but even in tech -comparison would e.g. be techy subreddits. Ironically proving GP's point pefectly.
