The problem is that you have to define the problem enough to avoid the fact that it's trivial to output the string "1,2,Fizz,4,Buzz,......" and fulfill the assignment. You can, in fact, output "$1,$2,Fizz,$4,Buzz,..." where $ is any prefix itself divisible by 15 (there are other templates for the other situations but it clearly does repeat endlessly.)

This is really how it’s done. Don’t go over their head; go under their boss’s.

I'm not sure you understand just how dedicated they were to this whole turn it back on the employee method they were apparently using. I just skimmed the summary on the book after reading this comment. Its a toxic method of avoiding accountability masquerading as "mgmt"

You can't do whatever you describe if it needs sign off by a manager that simply ghosts on everything you try to send their way. You can assume responsibility but I'm not committing fraud for a company that does not care.

Also what you said means that you are now officially responsible for the mistakes which I'm pretty sure is what this whole "method" is about.

If they are not signing things required for your job then you need to go over their head

Is this a shortage of every type of RAM simultaneously?

Every type of DRAM is ultimately made at the same fabs, so if one type is suddenly in high demand then the supply of everything else is going to suffer.

Wait, really? For CPUs each generation needs basically a whole new fab, I thought… are they more able to incrementally upgrade RAM fabs somehow?

Not quickly but if somebody puts enough money on the table, the fabs change too. All about cost and return. Micron just axed their brand crucial (end customer RAM and SSD) because they will only sell to database centers from now on.

Crazy times.

The old equipment is mothballed because china is the only buyer and nobody wants to do anything that the Trump admin will at some point decide is tariff-worthy. So it all sits.

Essentially yes, not necessarily equivalently but every type has increased substantially

Yes, but I wonder if learning that part of a paper is likely AI and part of it is likely not, might be a signal.

Strategically, “stop talking” means nothing unless you would otherwise be slamming out ideas. You don’t need people who don’t talk, we have plants for that. You need your silence to say something.

But you can easily serve a desktop version or a small screen version.

Business Insider seems pretty hip.

Parody should be protected. But what makes it parody?

People who dumb down seem to think it's easier to be dumb. Not everyone seems to agree, fortunately.

Why should data centers need more than the usual proportion of energy at night?
