The problem is your tense. You make a prediction that will affect investors like YC, yet declare the firm immediately dead. I would recommend writing to the audience you want to have, and nurture your current readership into loyalty through respect. That means reasonable headlines and fleshed out arguments. I must admit though, I've toyed with the idea of a "dev bunker". Really cheap housing + coworking + startup community = super cheap collaboration. I think PG is right, that it wouldn't be cheaper than the open market. But the benefit is in the colocation, not just cost. There are plenty of YC companies that don't fit the super scrappy model though. We at Tipjoy have a house, for example.
