It used to be more about founders and wannabe founders, but the attitude shifted through the years to a mix of cynical money-grabbing attitude, so it's unsurprising that anything that doesn't mean "higher TC" is unpopular (except for side projects involving hardware, for some reason)

It's supposed to be populated by hackers (in the general sense). But it certainly isn't now — if it ever was.
