Japanese here. You got it right. That message is an ultimatum. No mercy for the dishonorable.

Is it just me or does this sound like a standard coding/mentoring practice?

What I (non-US) observed:

non-U.S. people when talking about their own medical issues: I have this medical issue, I wonder if I should see a doctor, the cause may be this.

U.S. people when talking about their own medical issues: I had this medical issue, I saw a doctor, and the cause was this.

non-U.S. people when talking about their own divorce: I am thinking about divorcing my wife/husband.

U.S. people when talking about their own divorce: We divorced last week.

I actually prefers pens than pencils but with different reasons. With pencils you are tempted to erase things. However, it is an illusion; Eraser does not really erase things, ending up in a dirty paper. It also takes much more time. With pens, erasing is effortless and does not require additional decision to make: Just strikethrough it. Then throw it away when you feel you want to start over.

Note that AMD has an abandoned K12 plan. They still have an ARM license AFAIU. And like what Fujitsu did to their SPARC to produce A64FX, swapping the frontend may make it possible to support an ARM instruction set without much modifications to the backend. So if they will, AMD would make an ARM chip
