LPT: When uploading an image to a website to save time you can copy and paste a URL of the image, instead of downloading it to your computer and uploading it.

Oh I can understand if it just acts as a direct link, you could lose a epic amount of bandwidth, but on the plus side, a link to ones website would be spread around, and I believe some web hosts let you turn it off if it becomes a problem.

I think and please somebody correct me if I am wrong, hotlinking is more geared to websites that avoid hosting there own images, by stealing the images of other sites.

lets say i have a website that has pictures of waffles. If instead of having my web gallery hosted on my server, I just use hotlinks, it would be both morally wrong, stealing bandwith, and also a risk, because then the links could break at a whim, and they would have to be replaced. (Photobucket anybody?)

Most (bigger) websites take a copy of the image, so that way they have there own version, that was put up in case of a take down or replacement, and so bandwith is not stolen. So linking an image tells said website, hey bro, I like that image so much, I am going to make a copy.

LPT: If a job won’t tell you the wage before the interview, leave. If they don’t tell you, then it’s not a wage you’d be able to take. And they know it. They want you to invest all your time and energy interviewing so when they lowball you, you fall victim to the fallacy of sunk costs. LPT Request: Is there a way to become warm and bubbly person? LPT: Check on your friends who just had a baby. Ask if they need company, or anything, really. Keep calling them to social events, even if they are unable to attend for a good few months. Their routine has abruptly changed, hence most "friends" just vanish. LPT request: how to get up in the right time? LPT: Get a Prenup. It is far easier to decide how materials and custody should be divided while both parties are on good terms. It'll save you both a lot of time and money. LPT: One of the biggest mistakes you could make when trying to climb any company’s ladder is believing that your skill, talent, and work ethic will be noticed and rewarded. More often than not, the only thing holding you back is keeping your mouth shut.
