Isn't "unprofessional", perhaps put under other names, an old mainstay in west-coast tech?
The standard HN attitude towards, say, wearing suits (or even just 'business casual') would be considered "unprofessional" in many circles. This mostly came to a head during that "Zuckerburg/bankers/hoodie" circus from last year. If somebody honestly told me that they believe in casually dressing for work, I wouldn't consider them to be tactless or lack a filter.
