The majority of discussion on the previous post was about how many/most of the books conflicted with the 1-week ban on highly charged topics.
Since that's over (right?) - perhaps people can now share their opinions on the book list itself...
- bigethan 10y agoIt was "politics" not "highly charged topics" - eg a post about javascript frameworks was fine. And I have no idea how to tell if it's over or not.

- grzm 10y agoThe week-long experiment was terminated early. See https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13131251 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13131251 It would have been over by now regardless.
- protomyth 10y agoI wish they had put that on the front page since I was still flagging political articles per the request in the original message.
- grzm 10y agoYeah, I think that would have been a good idea, too, especially as they kicked it off with a "Tell HN". I think they chose to address it as it came up in the comments. That said, this is getting off-topic :)
- jdp23 10y agoYes, it's over: https://medium.com/a-change-is-coming/learning-from-hacker-news-political-detox-experiment-996db0187c35 https://medium.com/a-change-is-coming/learning-from-hacker-n...
- minimaxir 10y agoThat's why I didn't call it an outright dupe. (I wish there were finer guidelines on "significant attention")
