I don't agree with gp's inflammatory tone, but do you not think a Fields medalist is not worth a black bar? I can buy not agreeing with tokenism, but her merit stands on its own imo. We lost a great mind; nobody's saying we should be in sack cloth and ashes but I think it's worth recognizing in some manner.

That said, I understand how HN is not really a Math/CS forum, it's more about industry.

I'm referring to the fact that she was the first female medalist. That's not enough to merit a community that usually doesn't bb mathematicians to make an exception - that would be tokenism.
