Yes, I agree, it's entirely possible to find random links interesting. That does not mean they are related to "hacker news".

The only reason these stories get upvoted is because of that audience you mentioned.

Don't make me tap the sign:

    On-Topic: Anything that good hackers would find interesting. That includes more than hacking and startups. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity. 
This satisfies people's intellectual curiosity, therefore it's "Hacker News."
