That "immature" community you speak of is one of the best parts of IH. As someone who joined IH and the maker community in general last year, there are few other places that I turned to beforehand to get basic and/or "dumb" questions answered about entrepreneurship. Hacker News is far too elite for that kind of environment.

For me, it's a place to feel "safe" to ask questions that might get ridiculed or passed on elsewhere. It's not just about the informative podcasts and interviews, but also about being around people who have the same goals as you, but are at different stages. It just so happens that many of us are at the beginning. And there's nothing wrong with that. We're all learning together!
