If you don't like capitalism go to a socialist country.

HN is removing things that are 'libertarian' but not things that are 'socialist.' If socialist content is on the table, then libertarian content should be as well.

When an article about a Libertarian movie reviewer on LetterBoxd was flagged and removed from Hn yesterday within minutes...

They aren't looking for the best though. They are looking for diverse.

GPA's are meaningless now. Grade inflation, etc. Just like the adversity score that will be added to the SAT... making it meaningless... IQ tests are going to replace GPAs for hiring in general.

Communication is a two way street, I wouldn't immediately blame one party, although you would think they would mention the process from the outset.

'unreasonably arduous'- how would you define that. Really a few phone convos, a take home assignment and showing up for interview is unreasonably arduous for a diverse candidate?

This actually shows to me that the company is not willing to hire someone diverse without properly vetting them. Good for them.

It was an observation. I can't help if they were insulted.
