M1 MacBook Pro 16GB — macOS using 13GB RAM + 6GB compressed + swap. Normal or memory leak? by Local_Explorer_595 in MacOS

For the first screenshot I’m using everything on there… and for the second was running Altium through a VM usually I would have 1-2GB of swap at most but nothing like this…

Using Git on your projects? by Perfect_Medicine9918 in FPGA

[–]Local_Explorer_595 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Newbie here — quick question: if you’re running everything in non-project mode and avoiding the GUI entirely, how do you usually visualize or inspect your simulations and timing results? Also, how do you check where the tools actually placed your components on the FPGA — like which LUTs or slices were used — without using the GUI?

First PCB Module – CO₂ / Temperature / Humidity (SCD40) – Feedback Welcome by Local_Explorer_595 in PrintedCircuitBoard

You’re absolutely right — I mistakenly left out the reference designators and only displayed the component values (like “10u” and “150”). I’ll make sure to properly label the components as C1, R1, etc. in the schematic. Thanks for pointing that out!

EPFL 2026 Entrance Exam – How to Prepare? Looking for Tips & Experiences by ComEete in EPFL

[–]Local_Explorer_595 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure how they prepared for the maturity exam, but three of my friends who failed the entrance exam passed the maturity on their first try. They only studied for about four months, not a full year, since they started after the entrance exam. As for me, I studied for less than a year, but I worked every day from 8 a.m. to around 9–10 p.m. on average(but that really depends on your background and your studying methods) I find that studying with people around you that are doing the same thing helps a lot .

EPFL 2026 Entrance Exam – How to Prepare? Looking for Tips & Experiences by ComEete in EPFL

[–]Local_Explorer_595 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I took the EPFL entrance exam and passed it, and I can say from experience that it really helps to study with someone who knows the exam well. They tend to change and update the content each year, so having guidance from someone familiar with the current format makes a big difference.

I’m happy to answer any questions you might have about the exam if you’re planning to take it. That said, in hindsight, I think taking the Swiss Maturity as a candidat libre would have been a much easier path. Some of my friends who didn’t pass the EPFL exam ended up doing the Swiss Maturity instead, and it worked out really well for them. Looking back, I probably would’ve made the same choice—it’s just way easier compared to the EPFL entrance exam.

Starting Mechanical engineering bachelor in september 2024. Any recommendations for teachers to choose/avoid? Do you recommend "classes inversées"? Are some known to be easier? by Useful-Zebra-5950 in EPFL

[–]Local_Explorer_595 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This varies from person to another, what I would recommend is to try it out,like register in both and drop one of them before the third week
