I like the tech and industry related business posts only. There are other forums for other things. Case in point, the one or two posts linked to stories from the New York Times that seems to show up every day. While I’m sure there is a subset of us who enjoy reading the articles in the New York Times those who do are probably already reading it natively and don’t re-read them in this forum.
I realize the NYT is linked on the main page of the YC main site, but the two posts that seem to show up every day strikes me as being spam in a tech forum. They are not on topic. Same with the climate change conundrum posts, there are other forums that discuss that on a daily basis such as http://www.abovetopsecret.com/ .
If this is a vote type of thing I would vote for tech and industry related business posts only. That is what makes us special and unique as a forum.
