Ask HN: Any other good discussion boards or subreddits?

Hacker News is a great place to find good content and intelligent discussion. Can anyone recommend any other discussion boards or good Subreddits where I can discover, learn and interact with other smart knowledge seekers?

/r/programming has some good stuff sometimes, but most of the articles are here, too. Also the Dunning Kruger effect is at an all time high there. They get pretty tetchy about shit that they decide is "bad", and then devolve into flaming.

If you want to follow stuff about a particular topic in programming, you can try /r/<your_topic>: /r/lisp, /r/ocaml, /r/clojure, /r/python, etc.

Metafilter I still think is great
