#2HN might be pointing the way to the future.
Or it might be overly focused on things that will never take the world by storm.

HN is pointing the way to the future...
...and all of the failed futures as well.

#4HN is an early adopter community. If you want technical community, there are places like https://www.reddit.com/r/systems/.

What I think we see are
1 languages or tech promoted by companies like Google, MS or FB
2 developers that self promote by creating a side project using the latest buzzwords and coolest languages of the month and sharing it, some do it for the CV but others do it for learning to see what is all about.
HN can't predict the future, good tech can die because is not supported by a company with money, or the company that controls it is incompetent and kills it. I am still thinking that C# and .Net could have been more popular only if MS could have just open source it from the beginning, maybe we would have now a way to do cross platform WPF apps and running them in browser with an open source Silverlight

It will be Java 15 then.

#9Hehe... Cool, I'm a "dark matter developer" and I like it. Edit: Because of downvotes, I'll expand a bit for more interesting comment. I work in a pretty large corp. as a developer, and solve a lot of smaller day-to-day business problems - let's say it begins with Excel and ends with a web form. I also set up the server, database and anything else I need on Azure in co-operation with our (very big) IT provider. I find it quite interesting, but my workday ends at 16.

#10Dunno what hole she is in but Excel, Sharepoint are all things that new age companies don't work on & rather is the tool of choice for all things by legacy ones still chugging along.
