> People are roughly divided into people who are driven and interested by "things" (nearly the entirety of this website) and people who are interested and driven by "people".
I'd put that very differently. Some are interested in what they have, others in what they do, the rest in how they do. And, I don't think that people on HN are predominantly interested in things. I think they're above all interested in acts.
if you want some more substantial further reading, search around the "things-people" and "data-ideas" dimensions are surprisingly established and quite interesting.
