I would argue that this post sets a great example for businesspeople. Sometimes in business you're going to come across someone with a strong reputation -- negative or positive -- and being able to understand them is important. So often we look at a reputation and base our actions and decisions on that, which I believe is inherently flawed.

We're all better off when different people can come together, understand each other, and work to make the world better, even if that's in a small way. So I think this is a great example of an HN post.
