I was told that it's great that there's lots of links here. Links are kind of
[a chore](/tdro/messages/scarce/#tdro-messages-scarce), but an obsessive habit
(from academic times). There's some semi automation happening but the main
downsides are:

  1. Checking if they still work
  2. Checking if relevancy hasn't changed

The other con {{< abbr "||" or >}} pro (take your pick):

  3. Friends more in the know, _may_ dissect {{< abbr "&&" "and doubly" >}} tear you a new one
     when the content and the link disagree (with reality).

_Insanely_ knowledgeable people are also out there online too. On occasion, when
I bother with emails, I always end up learning extremely fascinating stuff.
