Which PDF?

The URL I followed brought me to a interesting blog post with good but speculative discussion about the perspective of 'hackers' vs 'greenies' on mass consumption.

Did you really flag this link because somewhere within it there is a link to a PDF that includes unreliable sources? That's a pretty tough standard! :)



Reading all the comments, I came to the conclusion he probably refers to this coment: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=940369

It would be great if he can confirm so.


Yes.

I didn't have bandwidth for the video, so downloaded the PDF and scanned it as I had time.

If I missed the point of the article, doh! I was relying on the other comment.


The PDF is a transcript of a video that is linked from 15th paragraph of the article, but is just one of many linked videos. The actual article is a response from the author (approximately) of the recent HN post about the 100 square foot house.

The article itself is good, and you might enjoy it. I skipped the video, which is probably flawed in the ways you suggest. But maybe you could unflag the interesting link to the response in the meantime? :)
