"Being a hacker" in the sense that HN uses that word has to do with intellectual curiosity, and we take a broad and generous view of what that means. That's the original spirit of the site, because the hacker who founded HN has always been curious about many things.
It's true that not every story gratifies everyone's curiosity, but that's to be expected. If you don't find this one interesting, there are others to read, and if you run out, click 'past' in the top bar and you'll likely find lots that you missed.
