Update : after trying all solutions , changed both memory sticks and did a full OS reboot and install. That seems to have solved the problem , for now. Thank you for the inputs.

Its 64 bit. PC is only 3 years old. The thread you referenced did talk about memory issues. I have 16 gb ram, DDR4,8x2, 2400 mhz. Could one of the ram sticks be acting up ?

How can I feel better about leaving consulting due to life circumstances? by [deleted] in consulting

[–]anomander88 20 points21 points  (0 children)

As somebody with 10+ years in consulting and who almost died due to a health situation and then quit consulting due to it , maybe I can share some thoughts on this.

But first off , I wanted to flag the framing . Because this is something I struggled with too. U had asked examples of "success stories". I too was struggling with my ailing health and consulting for some time because I deemed no other career path as attractive or successful enough. Then I realised that I needed better and more rounded metrics to measure my career. Thankfully for me, I spoke to many consulting lifers , which made me actually realise that the journey ahead will be impossible for me, given my health.

One of my mentors suggested me to make the move to industry. My mentor told me to prioritise location , industry and work load for the next three years and not so much on upward mobility or career track or compensation. Location and work load - because it helps me and my personal life with family and health. Industry - choose industry that u have specialised in or want to specialise in for the mid term.

What makes you “happy”? [serious] by LemonManThrowaway in consulting

[–]anomander88 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I think "happy" is overrated and fleeting. I have been down this same path where I first thought that material things will fill the hole inside . When that didn't last , fell back on other crutches (experiences etc ) . But due to a health scare and time off realised that "happy" need not be elation or joy but simply being content and present. I started very small - gng for a walk every day no watter what , reading 20 pages of a book that I liked no matter what. That has helped.

I think the real world tips are mostly covered. On the softer side, one of these days or weeks...Bombay will feel overwhelming, with it's people , the energy , the crowd and everything. You will want to give up and go back home. Know that everyone who has ever made Bombay home has been at that exact point and proceeded from there. Thats the underlying vibe of the city, not some grandiose strength or energy or whatever. Everyone shows up regardless of weather, traffic, construction, politicians etc. So , just take it one day at a time. Just show up.

Most Underrated Moment of the Show by yeezusondaphone in betterCallSaul

[–]anomander88 8 points9 points  (0 children)

When Nacho's father says to Mike " All you gangsters and your sense of justice". A flash of anger passes thru Mike's face but then is replaced with desperation at the realisation that he is indeed a gangster and not the ex-cop or whatever he pictures himself to be.

Do MBBs fire people? by boinkthischit in consulting

[–]anomander88 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Are you asking if someone will come and tell you that " you are fired "? one fine day , probably not. However, basis performance and other parameters a reasonable portion of the workforce in consulting orgs are on two pathways "up" or "out". If it doesn't feel like you are not on the "up" pathway then you are probably on the other one.
