@trade_zultan i can see a bunch of electron apps. textedit at 1.1 gb is abnormal. also, its 16gb unified mem, shared between cpu, gpu, apps... give zed a try with ai cli. and turn off "continue running in background" in browser.
RAM bottlenecking. M2 Pro, 16Gb Ram, 512Gb Memory.
Someone please suggest a permanent-ish solution. I tried giving claude code the access to terminal and fixing this but what it simply did was close apps.
Is there any way for me to reduce RAM load without closing these apps?
Is this a Tahoe issue?
Is this an apple Tactic?
After 3 years of enjoying my M2 Pro and suggesting people around me that go for it, it never lags n shit.. It has started lagging now!!!!!!
I have just cleared my SWAP memory, otherwise it goes up to 5-6Gb utilization as well. IDK what is going wrong.
you know what
all of these "which is better" polls are silly
use codex or claude code, whatever works best for you
i am grateful we live in a time with such amazing tools, and grateful there is a choice
it gave me reasons why the "last" one is better than the first.
like wtf bro!
this isn't the first time. tried this multiple times.
so... what am i supposed to believe?!
i asked claude to give me good python repos for open source contribution, ranked by various factors.
it gave me a ranked list.
i opened a new chat, gave it the #1 repo to analyze.
it said: not a good repo.
then i gave it the last-ranked repo.
my morgan stanley interview experience:
round 1 started with my intro, then he went deep into my technical background, freelance work and all projects from my resume. explained each one properly.
then my recent freelance work in detail. after that he asked about my workflow of building apps with ai. i told him my spec driven approach... he was actually impressed
then opps question ... never seen that type before but i solved it properly with his hints in between.
dsa time (i was scared as hell). he asked if i'm comfortable with trees, i said no 😂 then he said okay lets do array strings. gave a sliding window problem i'd never done. still explained the approach, wrote half the code and he said "okay fine you'll complete it".
sql was basic join – easy for me.
at the end i asked him 3 questions. first one was how he uses ai... guess what, he follows the same approach as me. then asked about the role and company. ended with a good handshake.
sat for 1-2 hrs and then the round 2 name came.
round 2 was with a very senior guy, basically hr round.
he asked a probability question – wasn't able to solve it. 2 puzzles (solved 1). some general hr questions (those were horrible 😭). then a nice system design on streaming backend like netflix. few more hr questions and bye.
i literally came out thinking i fucked up a little.
waited 3-5 hrs... results came.
7 selected out of 27.
and your boy made it 🥹
interning for next 12 months at morgan stanley as technology apprenticeship 🔥
let’s gooo
You’re 23.
You get two software engineering offers:
Option A:
- ₹18 LPA
- 40 hrs/week
- Supportive team
- Predictable work
- Promotions are slow
Option B:
- ₹30 LPA
- 60+ hrs/week
- Tough engineering bar
- Good system design exposure
- Faster promotions
Which one are you choosing?
Got rejected from an interview today. The intern role I told you guys about.
They said my basics weren't clear. That's it. No detailed feedback. Just that one line and it was over.
Sat with it for a while. Honestly my first instinct was to argue with it in my head.
> The questions were unfair.
> The interviewer was harsh.
> The format was weird.
I had all the excuses ready.
But then I actually thought about it.
They were right.
I've been studying for months and somewhere in my head I convinced myself that studying and knowing are the same thing. They're not.
> There's a massive difference between recognizing a concept when you read it and actually explaining it clearly with someone staring at you waiting for an answer.
I froze. On stuff I thought I knew. That's not bad luck or a bad interviewer. That's just a gap I didn't want to admit was there.
So:
> Back to Java
> Back to DSA
> Back to SQL
Not dramatically. Not with some big comeback energy. Just quietly fixing what's actually broken.
The rejection stings. I'm not going to pretend it doesn't. But it showed me exactly where I am versus where I thought I was.
Honestly that's more useful than passing would have been.
@tradingwsidhant Good point.
What do you think about this, people are switching their investments into Bitcoin because gold is currently up around 20% since recent swing lows along with BTC?
Gold used to be the war safe asset class, but the trend now seems to be changing.
#Bitcoin just hit $78,000
and most traders are still confused about why..
So let me break it down real quick,
Iran is threatening to block the Strait of Hormuz which is basically where 20% of the world's oil moves through
and because of that oil is spiking, markets are panicking and money is flying out of stocks
and into anything that holds value so #Bitcoin is getting bought hard right now.
This is not a crypto rally, this is the world getting scared and #Bitcoin being the answer.

> Tbh he does n't feels too cool.
> All those fancy course content with fancy advices , his video feels more of like an motivational content more than learning .
> Never been able to understand the actual concepts of software engineering from his videos, but enjoyed listening the stories for sure.
What's your opinion on him ?
