Software developers and entrepreneurs like problem solving and advanced technologies. Stories about aviation and other seemingly unrelated topics could spark ideas as to how to improve something or inspire a different way to solve a problem. Nothing wrong with day-dreaming. Many of us aspire to be like Elon Musk or Richard Branson, and they certainly spent their fair share dreaming about what's possible with the latest technologies. It's also interesting to get different groups of peoples perspective on different subjects. If you posted this question on multiple sites dedicated to a subset of the population (developers, entrepreneurs, moms, croquet enthusiasts, stock-car racing enthusiasts, sales-people, 5th graders) it would be interesting to see the different responses, and to see how much group-think there would be depending on how the first few comments sounded. Some news topics are inappropriate for HN in my opinion. The current news topic about the missing airplane doesn't really need to be here unless there are people whose only source of news is HN.
