>Why is this on HN?

Because it is in our industry - and people on HN often follow all aspects of issues and stories related to our industry.

(Our industry being high-tech and computers in general - get the fark off your "only-hacker"-related-news-that-exactly-matches-my-ego-should-actually-be-posted-here horse)

How is stating that one is on a high-horse nasty?

Too often, people say "why is this on HN" without actually thinking about how some of the stories and information may actually be of interest to people of this community.

Further, it appears that such statements are more often coming from a sense of superiority and its really annoying.
