Amish Hackers and Early Adopters
- gne1963 18y agoNice article... as Amish become more and more an urban people, farming can no longer be their only livelihood. As time rolls on it is interesting to observe which locales adopt new technologies, sometimes out of necessity.
- nihilocrat 18y agoVery interesting and mindful means of adopting new technology. I wonder why they haven't categorically accepted solar and/or wind power, at least for the parishes that allow diesel generators, since it seems to be perfectly in-line with living off the grid. I especially like the diagram at the end of the piece, it's interesting to see the trends of adoption and rejection of technologies.
