      While Jim may be technically correct about the ISA making no difference in terms of performance due to sophisticated prediction, there is a big measurable advantage of genuine RISC in terms of efficiency and power consumption.

I am super interested in hardware related topics and I took lots and lots of architecture and hardware related courses, but I have no idea how to get a job in this field. I always feel like I got into the wrong field and should've instead studied ECE. I want to pivot into more hardware related stuff but I don't feel like I have the right qualifications for a job in the industry, and it seems to me the only way to get those qualifications is to get one of those jobs and learn on the job.
