Stross is a well-known and popular science fiction author and former system administrator. Pundits and SF authors don't need to be accurate to project what may happen in the future (e.g., Clarke assumed we'd have manned communications space stations in geosynchronous orbit rather than automated robots).

To me, your comment read as though he was a San Francisco author. It took another comment to figure out you meant Science Fiction.

I read entirely too much HN.
