“The AI-driven growth in the #datacenter [sector] has led to a surge in demand for memory and storage. Micron has made the difficult decision to exit the Crucial consumer business in order to improve supply and support for our larger, strategic customers in faster-growing segments,” said Sumit Sadana, EVP and Chief Business Officer at Micron Technology.

Did you know that Chinese translation for computer is electric 電 brain 腦 ? Turns out the Chinese language may be on to something Because your brain actually does work like a computer!
And here's how you can use that information to write better software.

I have 13 GB of memory free. I think I’ve finally got enough RAM to “multitask” with my browser with a hundred open windows and 400 tabs. 😁
Having to keep reminding myself that I DO NOT have permission to purchase Cold War-era Soviet ferrite core memory cubes UNTIL I get some more client projects out the door and get some more checks in.
Goodenough, Nobel laureate who gave the world Li-ion batteries, passes away
... also played significant role in the development of Random Access Memory (RAM)
John B. Goodenough, American co-inventor of Lithium-ion batteries, co-winner of 2019 Nobel prize for Chemistry, passed away a month short of turning 101

It's no secret, I'm a big fan of memory. Not only is memory crucial for the functioning of a computer, it's also plain weird. This episode we are looking at magnetic core memory; a technology that defined computing for more than two decades. We'll be talking about how it works, the impacts of ferrite, and the surprising controversy surrounding it's creation.
