Articles like this don't promote healthy discussion. Achievement gaps between races in different areas are a huge social taboo.
It's just not something that can be discussed calmly and openly in a semi-professional forum like this. So you get nothing but on side spouting politically correct cliches and the other side claiming that they are the truly politically correct ones.
Noticed it as well, had to Shift+Ctrl+T to get back to it. Oh well, I can't take any more of "it's her fault" style responses from the HN community this week after the last volley of posts on this matter (which incidentally resulted in the woman's website being DOSd.)
