What is a "HN-level hacker"? I write code for a living and I read news on this website. Do I count? I'm an apple "consumer" because I don't want to think about any hardware gotchas when I'm trying to do my job. That's the same thing I want out of my package manager, sensible defaults I don't have to think about so I can do real work instead.
