People Are Unfamiliar With Memory Efficient Coding

Journalists discovering that 256 is an "oddly specific number" while every developer is facepalming so hard they've left a permanent mark. For the uninitiated: 2^8 = 256, which is a power of 2 that makes perfect sense when you're allocating memory or designing data structures.

Dad has absolutely no idea why it worked either.

The RAM sticks are basically saying "You thought you were building a budget PC? That's cute." Meanwhile your SSD is like "I store your precious data, pay up or else." It's the PC building equivalent of getting a discount on the car but finding out the steering wheel costs extra.
