My S++ tier:

- forget below average

- i ask stupid questions right here on HN all the time

- you would literally see it in my history

- all sorts of questions like why cant we have a language that looks like typed python but runs much faster than c++, rust and zig

- why cant we have 1 sextillion transistors inside a single chip

- why cant we use nuclear propulsion to reach 99% the speed of light for interstellar travel and what are the challenges here

- every single time i literally prefix it like "stupid question: why cant we do xyz"

you call them stupid questions, but i say these are quite good, trivial-seeming but actually non-trivial questions that lead you to a deeper understanding.

Here's one exactly in this spirit:

"Why can't we just give steroids to people with muscular dystrophy?" [0]
