- samb1729 6y agoWhat does HTH mean?
- sgn 6y agoHope That Help, HTH.
- kzrdude 6y ago"Hope this helps" I see it with HAND "have a nice day" too
- _puk 6y agoI've always read it as "Happy To Help". I see that's wrong, but ignorance has made the internet seem just that little bit warmer all these years!
- gwd 6y agoI think it could probably mean "Happy to help" if said in response to a thanks of some sort. Saying it before someone has said thanks is a bit presumptuous. :-)
- mattacular 6y ago"Hope this helps" (sometimes used sarcastically)

- Xelbair 6y agoI prefer the ordered version. three most difficult things in CS: 2) Naming Things 1) Cache Invalidation 4) off by one errors 3) Concurrency
- csunbird 6y agoAnother version, about distributed systems: There are only two hard problems in distributed systems: 2. Exactly-once delivery 1. Guaranteed order of messages 2. Exactly-once delivery
