A worthwhile criticism, except...
How many ads do you see on HN? What's the ad revenue? What are the operating costs?
So, to reiterate your argument:
1. We don't matter to pg because we don't generate profit and are instead a slow drain on resources
2. Therefore this site must be a relic of the 90s written in an ad-hoc collection of mzscheme macros
That's a completely accurate mischaracterization of what I've said, yes.
