- krapp 4y agoHN crawls the site and automatically replaces the posted URL with a canonical URL when it finds one. Unfortunately, more often than not, the canonical URL is either the domain or something like this.
- r721 4y agoLooks like this is the intended URL: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/13569317.2021.1921940 https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/13569317.2021.1...
- marttt 4y agoOP here - yes, this is it, thanks for the correction. I'm quite sure I tested the URL right after posting, so initially it did work.
- LinuxBender 4y agoOne could email @dang hn@ycombinator.com to suggest the correct link since the edit window has passed.
- tullianus 4y ago> However, the details of the Harvard interpretation do not stand up to scrutiny. There is no evidence that Kaczynski read most of the authors whom Chase and Corey cite as his influences, and there is some evidence that Kaczynski did not read some of them. In May 2001, Corey mailed a copy of his article to Kaczynski and asked for his comments. Kaczynski’s reply was unhelpful and dismissive, but his private notes on this article are revealing. He wrote that he had ‘never read anything by’ many of the authors whom Corey and Chase list as the Manifesto’s sources: Alfred Adler, Hannah Arendt,...and E. F. Schumacher. Kaczynski confirmed that he had read B. F. Skinner, as well as three books by Jacques Ellul... But of the authors he read, he denied that the Manifesto was influenced by several of them. Has the author of this article mailed it to Kaczynski to see what he thinks?
