Earlier quoted context omitted.

It’s a hacker forum. Sailing across the world like he did was the hacker equivalent in the 1400s. HN also constantly links to paywall articles, and I imagine at least ninety percent of people here use ad block

Comparing today’s tech hacking with sailing across the Atlantic is a very good joke, very funny.

Hacking in the context of hacker news doesn’t have to be related to technology at all
