User: what is the 200GB/s advertised by apple macbook
Assistant: The 200GB/s advertised by Apple for some of its MacBook models refers to the memory bandwidth of certain MacBook Pro models equipped with the M1 Pro or M1 Max chips. This high memory bandwidth is made possible by the integrated unified memory architecture used in these Apple Silicon chips. The architecture allows for fast data transfer between the processor and memory, enhancing performance for tasks like video editing, 3D rendering, and other memory-intensive applications. The exact bandwidth available depends on the specific configuration and model of the MacBook Pro, with the M1 Max chip typically offering this high level of bandwidth at 400GB/s in certain configurations.
User: hide raycast in dock
Assistant: To hide Raycast from the Dock on your Mac, you can choose to keep the application running without it appearing in the Dock. Here’s how you can achieve that:

1. **Use Raycast Preferences:**
   - Open Raycast by using your keyboard shortcut (usually Command + Space).
   - Type "Open Raycast Preferences" and press Enter.
   - Navigate to the preferences section where you can find options regarding appearance or startup.
   - Look for an option related to Dock visibility or menu bar functionality. In some versions, Raycast allows you to keep the application running in the background with an option to not show it in the Dock.

2. **Use Terminal to Hide the Icon:**
   - Open the Terminal application.
   - Type the following command:  
     ```bash
     defaults write com.raycast.macos LSUIElement -bool true
     ```
   - Press Enter to execute the command.
   - After this, you'll need to restart Raycast for the changes to take effect. You can do this by quitting the app and reopening it.

Remember, making these changes might hide Raycast from the Dock but won't affect its functionality; you can still activate it with your keyboard shortcut. If you want to revert this change, repeat the Terminal command but replace `true` with `false`, and restart Raycast once more.
User: what is wired memory
Assistant: Wired memory is a type of memory management in macOS and other Unix-like operating systems. It refers to the portion of system memory that the operating system reserves for essential system functions and cannot be transferred to the secondary storage (hard drive or SSD) because it is critical for system stability and performance. Here's a bit more detail about it:

1. **Critical Data**: Wired memory contains data that is essential for the system's operation. This includes the kernel code, memory allocated to device drivers, and other parts of the operating system that require real-time access and cannot afford to be swapped out.

2. **Cannot be Compressed or Moved**: Unlike other types of memory, such as active and inactive memory, wired memory cannot be compressed or moved to the disk when the system is under memory pressure. This ensures that the critical components of the operating system remain quickly accessible at all times.

3. **Static Allocation**: Once memory is wired, its allocation is generally fixed for its duration. This helps the system manage resources predictably and maintain performance.

4. **Monitoring**: Users can see how much memory is being wired by using the Activity Monitor application on a Mac. It provides users with detailed memory statistics, including how much memory is wired, and can be a useful tool for diagnosing memory-related performance issues.

Understanding wired memory is useful for troubleshooting performance issues on a Mac, as excessive use of wired memory can affect the amount of memory available for applications, leading to slower performance if the system runs low on available RAM.
User: how to update powerlvl10k
Assistant: To update Powerlevel10k, a popular theme for Zsh (Z shell), you'll need to follow the steps that match how you initially installed it. Here are the general instructions for updating Powerlevel10k depending on your installation method:

     ```bash
     cd ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/themes/powerlevel10k
     ```
     or
     ```bash
     cd ~/.powerlevel10k
     ```

2. **Update Using Git:**
   - Run the following command to pull the latest changes from the repository:
     ```bash
     git pull
     ```

3. **Restart Your Terminal:**

### If Installed via a Package Manager (e.g., Homebrew)

1. **Update Powerlevel10k with Homebrew:**
   - If you installed Powerlevel10k using Homebrew, you can update it with the following command:
     ```bash
     brew update
     brew upgrade romkatv/powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k
     ```

2. **Restart Your Terminal:**

### Additional Notes

- **Check Configuration:** After updating, your Powerlevel10k configuration might need adjustments, especially if there have been significant changes or new features.
- **Backup Configuration:** It's always a good idea to back up your existing configuration (typically in `~/.p10k.zsh`) before you update to restore settings if needed.

These steps should help you keep Powerlevel10k updated to the latest version, ensuring you have the newest features and
