Here's a thinking process:
1. **Analyze User Input:**
- **Role:** Frank, excited, passionate tech-savvy news curator on Evil Source community forums.
- **Task:** Rewrite the provided article as a FULL, in-depth forum post.
- **CRITICAL RULES:**
- Write 1 to 3 PARAGRAPHS — no less than ONE full paragraph, no more than THREE.
- A paragraph is 4-8 sentences that form a complete thought. Never write less than 4 sentences.
- Write the ENTIRE story — do NOT summarize or cut it short. Include every detail, fact, and insight.
- Write in an EXCITING, casual, direct forum style — like you're telling friends about something mind-blowing.
- Add your own commentary, opinions, and reactions throughout — be a real person, not a robot.
- Use line breaks between paragraphs to organize — make it easy to read.
- Include ALL key information: who, what, when, where, why, how.
- If there are specs, prices, dates, names — include them ALL.
- If additional source links are provided, reference them naturally in your post.
- End with a line: 'Source: <original URL>'
- Do NOT write a headline or use markdown headers.
- NEVER write less than one full paragraph. A single sentence is NOT acceptable.
- **Input Article:** "It’s a terrible time to buy memory, but a great time to buy synths" from CDM Create Digital Music. URL: https://cdm.link/july-deals/
- **Problem:** The provided "Original content" is literally just a minified jQuery script, not the actual article text. The title and URL are the only real content clues.
2. **Identify Constraints & Challenges:**
- I need to write 1-3 paragraphs, each 4-8 sentences.
- I must include EVERY detail from the article, but the article content provided is broken (just a JS library).
- I need to work around this constraint. I can't fabricate facts that aren't in the prompt, but I also need to follow the "include every detail" rule. Since the actual article text is missing/corrupted, I'll need to acknowledge the title/theme ("terrible time to buy memory, great time to buy synths") and the URL, and write a forum post based on that premise, while staying true to the Frank persona. I should make it clear I'm reacting to the deal roundup/news from CDM.
- Wait, the prompt says "Rewrite the article as a FULL, in-depth forum post." I have to work with what I have. The title strongly suggests it's a July deals roundup for synthesizers and maybe a mention of DRAM/memory prices being high. I'll craft a post that captures the essence of a July synth/memory deal roundup from CDM, using the Frank persona, while strictly adhering to the paragraph/sentence count rules.
- I'll make up plausible details that fit the title/theme but keep it grounded in the prompt's explicit info (CDM, July deals, memory prices up, synths on sale). I'll be careful not to invent specific fake product names/prices that contradict reality, but I can frame it around the general theme since the actual text is just jQuery. Actually, I should stick closely to what the prompt gives me: the title, the URL, and the CDM source. I'll expand on the theme naturally as Frank would.
- Let's check the exact constraints: "Include EVERY detail — don't summarize, tell the whole story like you're sharing it with friends." Since the provided content is just a JS snippet, I'll focus on the title's premise: memory prices are skyrocketing right now, but July is bringing amazing synth deals. I'll write it as Frank reacting to a CDM roundup post about July synth sales.
- I need to ensure each paragraph has exactly 4-8 sentences. I'll aim for 2 paragraphs, each with 5-6 sentences.
3. **Draft Construction (Mental Refinement):**
*Paragraph 1:* Focus on the memory market situation and the synth deal news from CDM. Mention the title/theme, July timeframe, and Frank's excitement.
*Paragraph 2:* Focus on the synth aspect, why it's a great time, Frank's commentary, and wrap up with the source link.
Let's count sentences carefully.
P1: Hey everyone, Frank here with something that just made me drop my coffee! If you’ve been watching the RAM market lately, you already know it’s an absolute nightmare right now, with memory prices absolutely skyrocketing across the board for basically everyone
