I don&#x27;t think you are correct, there is a very broad variety of interesting topics that come across HN daily...  I find it interesting the stories around hardware hacking in the 60-80&#x27;s that come up at times... Others include RF&#x2F;Radio... There&#x27;s also a touch of art and politics.<p>Just because <i>you</i> may not find everything interesting doesn&#x27;t mean a significant portion of the members of this site won&#x27;t.  I started out doing art work, I shifted to programming by chance because I had a talent for it, and it paid well.  I enjoy it, but it&#x27;s never been my first choice of careers.
