A lot of non-hackers also like Star Trek, and a lot of hackers don't like it. Liking Star Trek isn't indicative of or relevant to being a "good hacker".
By this logic being old and probably white and male is also what it takes to be a good hacker.
May I remind you that Hacker News generally values civil discourse and that ageist, racist, and sexist comments are not welcome here. Please take some time to review the HN guidelines that are linked at the bottom of the page.
