(HoD = "Hug of Death" - please don't use obscure TLAs* - it makes people feel excluded)
(* three letter acronyms)
EDIT - and it means something like "site down because it's been linked to from here and can't handle the traffic)
EDIT2 - "tl;dr" is at least easy to google...

- swimfar 6y agoIt's best to just assume that all acronyms are obscure and spell them out the first time you use them, especially ones related to a specific field of interest, hobby, profession, or culture.
