And what exactly is wrong with people getting lots of practice writing and lots of practice coding? You don't need to read what they've written.

I still need to determine whether it's worth reading. Private diaries/libraries are still useful, both for the writing and for the lack of publication.

That's why there should be a way for people to voluntarily designate that what they are writing is not worth reading!

I know sometimes I want to respond to something, but know that my response does not contribute anything useful, and so I wish I could respond in a way that would only be shown if someone opted in to seeing messages self-described as useless.

Does installing this app somehow disable the regular camera app? Not sure how it ensures anything. Joe takes a picture. I want to see it. But, oops, Billy isn't here to complete the nuclear launch procedure. So I turn to Joe and say "hey, text me that funny picture of Billy." What happens next?

It might work if they delete the original photos (if that's still possible on modern devices).

Or it could require you to manually delete the phone's regular copy of the photos, which your "friends" can verify since they're in the same room.

Here's a similar concept for more general secrets (although could be used with pictures) that might be easier for the HN community to "get": Core Secret https://appsto.re/us/MVFMP.i , http://cryptorobots.com/coresecret/documentation.en.html.

Why would they have to? Just because there happens to be a movie called "The Hangover"?

It's pretty obvious that the name is playing off the movie.

Hangovers were around a long time before the movie.

Are there any free emails that work without requiring a cell #?

Sure, and if the provider insists and you don't want, just provide a fake tel number...

See the reply - have you tried? You need a phone number to get an email and you need a drivers license to get a phone number...

They call/text to confirm.
