Actually more interested in how you're handling this than the PC fight that's breaking out around the thread.

I'm not sure what you're asking for. If it helps, https://lobste.rs/about has some notes on the community and https://lobste.rs/moderations has the log of moderator actions.

Pretty sure this meant the technical details of dealing with the increased traffic of the HN hug-of-death, rather than moderating policies.

The "PC" made me think he was talking about political discussion, but I added some caching in https://github.com/lobsters/lobsters/commit/e99c0783aa386740... and I'm thinking https://github.com/rails/actionpack-page_caching would be good for logged-out users.
