It's best to give up? Almost no one would seriously wonder?Software is also too abstract?

Developer productivity questions will always occur in the minds of the people signing the front of the paycheck.

One of many worlds.

Well if its just you serving your own images then I think it doesn't matter. If its you hosting images for others, then that chould raise your costs but should be looked at as a cost of doing business and adjust pricing if necessary. The increased cost could be outweighed if there is a significant amount of business you didn't get by not offering the jpeg uploads.

I think the problem I'm having here is that all your terminology is open-ended and subjective. Terms like 'better off' 'happier' 'healcare advancements' are not measurable. It may be possible to answer your own question by reversing the thought. Like, will our dystopian future be caused by our attemp to fight climate change and can that dystopia be mitigated with the use of technological advancements?

This is the worst answer I have read in a year. You should be gratefull someone taught you to wipe your butt. I think what you really meant to say was "I have no idea how email works either but I'm going to make you think you shouldn't try to figure it out because then you might become better than me."

First you didn't beleive I read it, then you tell me I'm confusing myself! I would suggest removing the 'phd' on your username and replace it with something more your speed, like 'sh!t'

EDIT: ok maybe that was a bit harsh but the only way dystopian anything can be a good thing is to people who like dystopia which is then actually utopia and it reverts back to my original answer which is - dystopia = negative.

Social securityis a pretty well known ponzi scheme.

I read it more than once. Need any more clarification or were you just hoping for a longer answer to start a discussion?

yes its negative. look up the word dystopian

Why would you not support jpeg?

I scan them and save them on some kind of digital format. And things like my kids artwork I save in a box in the closet :-)
