Let k be an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. For any integer $m\ge 2$, we show that the Hodge numbers of a smooth projective k-variety can take on any combination of values modulo m, subject only to Serre duality. In particular, there are no non-trivial polynomial relations between the Hodge numbers.
