Besides what others have said about moderation and general lack of features, I wanted to add that hckrnews.com is a really beautiful interface that all news sites should copy IMO. I think the interaction between hckrnews.com readers and home page readers may add something that either interface alone would miss and at least it appeals to people with significantly different styles of news reading.
