I'm not sure why, but I agree that there is sometimes a bit of a weird bias on HN against making money online - which is odd for a community of people who are ostensibly devoting a good deal of their attention to making side-projects that make money. What bothers me the most about this is the people that brag about using ad blockers to block ads and then use the same types of crappy ads to monetize their own sites. That's sort of an aside though, and doesn't apply to everybody. It's just a bit of a weird bit of hypocrisy that I've seen in some folks that is modestly irritating. (I don't use ad blockers. I just refuse to visit shitty sites that load up way too many low-quality ads)
