On-Topic: Anything that good hackers would find interesting. That includes more than hacking and startups. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity.

I think this qualifies.

Did you find it 'intellectually gratifying'?

I thought it was a beautiful, powerful and very moving story, but I didn't really learn anything new.

I would call this a good story, but not so much intellectually gratifying. Maybe if they talked more about the nitty gritty details of piloting a Chinook helicopter..
