HN has always been a place where people get to learn and understand things from viewpoints and domains they don’t work in.
It seems that HN has more people who want to just build stuff, than people who have to fix security issues. Discussing security is itself a challenge, because of NDAs.
I don’t think any sane adult assumes that sweeping stuff under the rug means the problem has gone away.
