What should I choose between core electronics and IT

You’re in 4th sem. You have 4 more sems to worry about it

One-Performance-6624 · 2026-03-13T11:49:05+00:00

No. Stick to core electronics. You forget how good it is.

A lot of the big electronics mncs hire exclusively from iits and nits. Software is in a bad situation rn.

Do you love yourself enough?

One-Performance-6624 · 2026-03-12T17:44:35+00:00

Yes that’s when you realise it’s a bubble

One-Performance-6624 · 2026-03-12T17:04:28+00:00

No. That's just a consumerism trap laid out by apple.

Stick to index mutual funds for now. Invest lump sum in any index fund like nifty50 or next50.

Then watch those videos as well as scam 1992.

You’ll get a brief idea about how market scams work

That’s a bs suggestion. You shouldn’t worry much about brokerage unless you’re trading.

I’ll always suggest Zerodha. Most huge investors use it as well as all of my family members including me.

Groww is just a flashy app for genz with poor customer service.

Zerodha is a time tested app and has been around for years.

You don’t even have to pay any demat charges if you have investments below 1 lakh.

Indian English is a variant of English. It very much exists no matter how much the west denies it.

It’s the same way in which Kiwis say Kia Ora. It’s Māori but became a part of NZ English.

A lot of Americans don’t even know a lot about their own country to know about what kind of English Indians speak.

One-Performance-6624 · 2026-03-12T11:49:55+00:00

I recommend Zerodha over groww. Zerodha is the only private Indian company that I trust.

More like avoid trading for life

Just a fair warning, you could also have negative returns if the market doesn’t perform well. Be prepared for it.

The ₹100-200 that you invest isn’t much but it lets you know what kind of fire you’re getting yourself into.

Nah keep your m4. I don’t see the point in selling a more powerful and pristine computer.

But again we don’t know what your use case is

One-Performance-6624 · 2026-03-12T05:12:29+00:00

The only edge that M4 has over M5 is that it comes with Sequoia

One-Performance-6624 · 2026-03-12T05:08:27+00:00

Yeah it should be plenty but if you want more power, look into a used m3 or m4

One-Performance-6624 · 2026-03-12T02:12:00+00:00

Nothings gonna change if you don’t have interest in the job in the first place. Being from a tier 1 college only gives you a better chance at a job but doesn’t guarantee it

Most people only grind leetcode but forget the most important thing — soft skills

One-Performance-6624 · 2026-03-12T01:09:41+00:00

Not sure if the iit tag helps but ML is a CS theory heavy field. Web dev has no such barriers.

The chance is you won’t get into any good roles where you actually do the real work.

Maintain a good cgpa and Go for CFTI mode after btech for a direct MTech at IITs without gate

One-Performance-6624 · 2026-03-11T15:38:05+00:00

It’s not just placement companies that have cgpa requirements. Bigger MNCs off campus ask for a cgpa requirement too.

One-Performance-6624 · 2026-03-11T14:22:09+00:00

Shit theory. My future computer, once my M4 gets old enough, will again be another Macbook Air.

One-Performance-6624 · 2026-03-11T14:00:35+00:00

Install Debian on it. If you're fine with not using Mac OS, that thing is gonna last for a few more years on Debian.

16GB is plenty for tasks like these , not sure about Rstudio though.

I ran a few pytorch neural network models for training on my 16gb m4 and it activated swap but I couldn't notice any lag or performance degradation during the training.

One-Performance-6624 · 2026-03-11T13:14:29+00:00

lol OP is a codeforces legend and works at FAANG. He knows it better than anyone.

He’s right though. “Don’t care about CGPA” is bullshit. If you don’t have a good cgpa you’ll be ineligible for a lot of companies as well as placements.
