They kind of are hanging out on HN, given that a story in such a spirit is being upvoted into the front page once a week or two, but they also seem a bit bipolar in that they swing between wanting to use the internet ascetically and defending the "web is your new OS and TV and it's a good thing!" attitude because they do it for a living, and that 150k is a 150k after all.

HN is also my procrastination tool of choice, so it might be I can see articles and manifestos urging for the return to the glory of blogosphere and web 1.0 before they sink down into oblivion.

It's like you may grow an impression that on HN, there are always endless debates about notetaking in software and paper. Sure they are there. There's good stuff, too, at least every other day.
