Microsoft once tried to reduce Windows RAM usage by 20 percent but failed. Now Windows 11 may finally fix memory issues in 2026 updates.

      Probably not but maybe. It’s a gamble that I’m guessing most MBAs would love to make!

        i guess a better way is just make something less RAM heavy from the get go.

          Good luck with that if it’s being vibe coded.

            i don’t think vibe coding will be that sophisticated any time soon.

              As long as they are based on LLMs, I don’t think it ever will be. But it will get better at pretending it is and passing tests.
