Hacker news used to be the place you’d come for the cutting edge in technology and entrepreneurship surrounded by interesting people pushing the boundaries day by day.
Nowadays it’s none of that. You no longer stumble upon the bleeding edge and most of the comment section is a wasteland of negativity (pot kettle I know).
It seems to be the natural progression of technical communities. Stackoverflow, /r/programming and now Hacker News.
In the past? Maybe.
