From the FAQ:
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.
Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic.
Thusly, as a hacker or someone that knows them, I can't help but find this to be highly in the Off-Topic category, uninteresting and certainly not gratifying my intellectual curiosity.
- eugenejen 17y agoI don't feel this as off topic. Nation is a much newer concept than clans and tribes in human history. The same problems happened before in early 20th Century China. Both Nationalists and Communist governments in China tried very hard for a long time to remove clan and tribal influence and a lot of bloody consequences happened. So this is part of social science. (though social science is political and not real science).
