Calling these penalties is kinda weighted. They're limits, which is a more neutral way of phrasing it.

Nov 10, 2018 at 13:09 comment added Meta Andrew T. @Glorfindel I interpret the value to be "reduced by", based on Shog's answer where he stated *0.2 (assuming SO: 1-0.8)
Nov 10, 2018 at 12:21 comment added Glorfindel Mod If I interpret Jon's chat message correctly, Workplace and Software Engineering are penalized more than Stack Overflow, not less (apart from the traffic factor).

updated info on different penalty factor
Oct 25, 2018 at 21:15 comment added gnat speaking of Software Eng it it harder to make such an overwhelming proof but if necessary I can invest some time and demonstrate that it isn't penalized either, it pops in HNQ frequently enough to gather representative set of examples. Maybe this can even be proven based on Glorfindel's database of hot questions
Oct 25, 2018 at 21:06 comment added gnat see my fact-check at the Tavern: "I see 6 (six) Workplace questions in HNQ right now: #121410, #121411, #121512, #121499, #121395, #121407". I can't tell where Shog has got his idea but it certainly is not true
Oct 25, 2018 at 20:52 comment added Meta Andrew T. @gnat I also couldn't find it on their respective meta, but I'd take Jon's meta post on Christianity and Shog direct statement on chat as the source of truth. I've also asked Shog to review this answer, but there's no comment on both sites.

Oct 17, 2018 at 11:01 comment added Mad Scientist @ShadowWizard The list is not public as far as I know, a few terms are known and there are some scattered meta posts about it, but not easy to find. This is one meta post that shows the existence of the list: meta.stackexchange.com/q/242047/151385
Oct 17, 2018 at 10:59 comment added Shadow Wizard @MadScientist where? Is it public?
Oct 17, 2018 at 10:22 comment added Mad Scientist @Somewhat there is a blacklist of terms that keeps the most problematic questions from sites like Skeptics out of the HNQ.
