I keep asking for legitimate uses of 10k in cash but the only answer I get is that it’s none of my business. It raises questions.

My point is you have to trust a user to input some raw text somewhat reliably. Have you dealt with users at scale? Whenever you provide a raw field in a form, the values are pathetic, tons of users can’t input things correct Maybe they’ll w

Once again the stereotypical HN comment of « no this is all wrong, my way is right » For all communications that matter today, email is HTML. No one cares that JohnFen choses to not render them as HTML.
