Of course, I didn't survey people or have access to demographic profiles from other sites, so it's just a breakdown of systems. To summarize, the average HN reader runs Chrome 21 on a pre-Retina MacBook.

Yes, but also remember that you're not measuring HN readers, you're measuring HN readers who thought your link was interesting. There are many (popular) links I don't click.

    No, I don't click web-oriented technology links. I'm generally more of a systems guy, and I find user interfaces rather boring. I suspect most people are like me (in finding SOME aspect of HN boring/irrelevant to their interests).
