And my anecdotal experience has been that those who've studied philosophy have a great ability to handle information and argument it.
Of course not all humanities are equal, there'll still be subjects which are not relevant in any way to business and tech.
This might be a bit off topic but I feel that submission with only a link lead to the problem OP describes. If there was a need for a proper discussion starter and text in addition to the link, then I think the problem wouldn't exist in such a scope. However in my short time here I've noticed even very "heavy topics" being just links without any further input whatsoever and I feel those would've lead to much more fruitful discussion with something to start with in addition to the link.
