Personally, I don't know the first thing about hacking, and I don't have any particular affinity toward startups. The reason I visit HN on a daily basis is because it's a great cross-section of news that delves into design, development, tech law, tech businesses large and small, and yes, even a little bit of politics and economics. And often, the comments can be incredibly insightful. I find articles, software and businesses here that I otherwise wouldn't find.
