I'm a bit on the fence with that. Many of us are 1-4 person groups who aren't SEO gurus yet are good hackers. We want to hack SEO and seomoz is actually a good resource. I don't know what your definition of the term "hacker" is but this seems on par with what I expect on a site like this one.
With so many SEO articles I find that it's all so incredibly gimmicky and formulaic. It's more about writing link bait to get link juice and build traffic than creating and sharing quality content. For that reason I would rather not see HN become a resource for furthering that pap. There are likely some SEO articles that fall into the latter category, and I wouldn't mind seeing them here from time to time...
