While I agree with the idea, HN as a whole cannot totally avoid these kinds of issues: "Tech Companies Delay Diversity Reports to Rethink Goals". I haven't posted the link because it's not in the spirit of the detox and it's only one week. Do we avoid these types of discussions because they are ambiguous and hard?

  "Fashion is mistaken for good design; 
   moral fashion is mistaken for good."

I understand the re-calibration of HN here. The choice of topics drift over periods of time and a reminder of the rationale is good hygiene.

   "Moral fashions more often seem to be 
    created deliberately. When there's 
    something we can't say, it's often 
    because some group doesn't want us to."

I'm also reminded of a great essay [0] that for today should be mandatory reading.
