  Can you submit youtube videos on HN? I'd rather have this in the main stories list than the blog spam
- zeedotme 13y ago
  seriously? Blog spam because we decided to share the videos with our readers in one post? We didn't post it here either btw.
  - lachyg 13y ago
    It's not so much that your post is blog spam -- in fact, it's good that you're getting the videos out there to people who would otherwise not know about them -- but to this audience, the much more valuable link is the direct YouTube link.
    - zeedotme 13y ago
      Understand, but hopefully you can see how "blog spam" sounds derogatory towards us. Been called worse though, will get on with my day :)

    Don't take it personally. The comment was towards the original poster, not the original author. HN'ers typically prefer the original source, never the aggregated-blog version.

      I don't think it's a blog spam, as long as it serves its purpose well, which is to let people know the videos are online. For me - it does
robbiet480 13y ago
Damn where is Chase Adam? His was the best talk!
- xoail 13y ago
  I rushed to watch his talk... but nope.. wonder why he is not there.
  - katm 13y ago
    His talk and the office hours should be up shortly.
hanley 13y ago
Still no video of the Office Hours
- meowface 13y ago
  Yeah, I would definitely like to see that uploaded.

One of the speakers here. I found the online reaction to my talk pretty interesting as a case study in internet telephone. Here's the talk itself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cOubCHLXT6A http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cOubCHLXT6A First party viewers mostly seemed to like it: http://seen.co/event/startup-school-2013-cupertino-ca-2013-6739/highlight/45740 http://seen.co/event/startup-school-2013-cupertino-ca-2013-6... CNET gave a second party writeup: http://news.cnet.com/8301-1023_3-57608320-93/a-radical-dream-for-making-techno-utopias-a-reality/ http://news.cnet.com/8301-1023_3-57608320-93/a-radical-dream... Then third party people started mischaracterizing it: http://valleywag.gawker.com/silicon-valleys-ultimate-exit-is-a-fantasy-of-seceding-1449199349 http://valleywag.gawker.com/silicon-valleys-ultimate-exit-is... Finally, the Hill wrote a fourth party account, quoting these third party accounts, and that's what Washington DC saw: http://thehill.com/blogs/pundits-blog/state-a-local-politics/330607-will-silicon-valley-secede-balaji-srinivasans-ultimate-exit http://thehill.com/blogs/pundits-blog/state-a-local-politics... Not everyone got it wrong; I think this account is closer: http://www.randomhouse.ca/hazlitt/blog/virtual-expatriates-and-urbanites-silicon-valley http://www.randomhouse.ca/hazlitt/blog/virtual-expatriates-a... But I encourage you to open up those tabs and go through them one by one to see a kind of pinball reflection of the tone of the talk. In microcosm it's an example of the emerging gap between Silicon Valley and DC, and gives a sense of how policy makers can inadvertently form their opinions from echoes of echoes. Doubly ironic and somewhat sad as we can use the internet to make direct connections between people these days. The good thing is that interested parties can see the primary source directly.

  I was at Startup School and enjoyed your talk as it gave me some new ideas to think about. I also worked in media for a time and I think the mischaracterizations in the "third-hand" accounts are less about an emerging gap and more about the huge market for time-waster content on the web. Valleywag mischaracterized your talk because someone at Valleywag is paid to write half a dozen "pieces" a day that will appeal to a certain audience. Intentionally mischaracterizing things and blowing things out of proportion is necessary to meeting the daily quota of articles.

Oops, I'm not even done submitting them all yet. Office hours are uploading now, and Chase's talk will follow right after. Sadly, consumer internet upload speeds haven't kept up with video quality. And these are only 720p, down-sampled from the 1080p source material.

Woohoo been looking forward to this for those of us who couldn't make it or watch the live stream. (Was busy filling out a YC app if I recall correctly ...)
joeblau 13y ago
Thank you. I've been waiting for this since I missed a few episodes during the day.
