Many people understand all these things. They're just not nihilistic assholes who will lie and cheat to any amount to get ahead. That's the difference.


You're on Hacker News - that's what this site advocates. That's what startup culture is.


Startup culture has an aspect of it, and many people here dislike that aspect. Broader hacker culture certainly doesn't have it.

You're confusing "hack" with "cheat" in the same way that some YouTube dickheads confuse "prank" with "being a dick for laughs".


Hacker News is a misnomer for this site. It should be Startup News.
