Talking about Deep Learning, Geoffrey Hinton did a AMA on Reddit not too long ago: http://www.reddit.com/r/MachineLearning/comments/2lmo0l/ama_...

Now that's maybe newsworthy. A tutorial is not, however.

Edit: contrary to my assumption, the tut was released very recently, that is today. Still, a news site is not a very good place for announcing tutorial releases, even if the guidelines are broad enough to allow it.

It's Version 0.1. That may be noteworthy in the title.

Remember, HN is not just for news. Anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity can be submitted here, and a tutorial does it pretty well, IMO.

How is this PDF different from the info from the main site: http://www.deeplearning.net/tutorial/ ?

It's portable? That's assuming you don't wget sites for offline perusal.
