Welcome to Hacker News in 2015, where the community mindset has changed from the old school Slashdot's reverence for software freedom and ideology to modern Reddit's mantra of "Who cares? It works! Get real!"

1) >implying the mindset on HN hasn't always been "push things and break shit who cares"

2) /r/programming and other software development subreddits are actually closer to slashdot's ideologies (excepting /r/webdev where performance is an overrated thing)

The good news is that HN seems to be slowly going back to a more old school mindset. At least you can criticize javascript.framework.of.the.day.js without being showered in downvotes, as opposed to a year ago.
