I'm not sure where you're getting the "worshiping" part from. Though I respect your overall opinion while still disagreeing from it, it's been a very long time since HN came anywhere near worshiping Apple or even most big tech companies. Most of us simply live in the real world where using big tech wares is a soft-requirement. Using an Apple device or having interest in them makes one no more or less a "hacker", which is already a pretty subjective and contextual term to begin with.
