This doesn't work when an important part of the process is making sure your data is actually good. If the data is proprietary, there is no way to make sure it is usable.

Engines for linear first person shooters aren't necessarily good for Skyrim-scale RPGs.

NVIDIA is basically the only GPGPU game

NVIDIA GPUs are definitely the go-to these days, but the world's most powerful supercomputer is using AMD GPUs. I wouldn't be surprised if AMD picks up speed (though they probably won't beat or meet NVIDIA). NVIDIA got started way sooner, so the fact AMD is behind is only natural.

TBH the longer you wait, the more you aren't going to want to do it. Depends on who you are as a person, but if you working toward getting married and havinf kids, then doing a PhD is going to feel like a truckload of extra responsibility that really isn't worth it. The only reason I am doing my now is that it gave me an excuse to leave my previous residence, but I was in a really stable place making plenty of money. That is a hard thing to give up.

Also usually you get a PhD because you want a specific job. If you want to do it to learn, it is a mistake most of the time. You want to be setting up your post-degree career sooner than later, because your pre-degree career is likely not going to count for much after the first few years.

TBH, I think I dislike it only slightly less than reddit. Don't get me wrong, I like the idea of the fediverse and what not. However, I see a lot of posts around here saying that lemmy is so much better than reddit, but I don't necessarily agree. Culturally I see a lot of the same behavior between the two. The main difference is there are a lot less "Facebook-like" posts and way more tech nerd-centric opinions. I would even argue that there is a lack of cultural balance. Like most of the people here are extremists in one way or the other (this includes me), and there are less "normal" people. I think this is probably what some of the users here actually want because they thirst for the "good ol' days" of forums before some of nerd culture leaked into the mainstream, but I'm not sure it's my cup of tea. Furthermore something that is sort of both a feature and a downside is that there is way less content here for obvious reasons. It's nice not to have an endless feed, but again, due to cultural imbalance, there isn't much variety. I love using linux, but I don't know if I care to have my feed engulfed by it. I'm not sure if the time I spend in Lemmy is really a net positive, just like how reddit felt. I'd say the most positive aspect of reddit was I could subscribe to a city specific subreddit and actually get news and info that is useful to my day to day life, whereas the info here is just useful for keeping me in my house or absorbed in work.

Please do not tell me to suck it up and contribute my own content. The point of this comment is not to get the community to "fix" lemmy for me but simply to relay an observation.

Honestly I like the method where you put it in a dry, preheated pan on the stove, add a bit of water and lid. Results in a crispy crust and melty cheese if executed correctly. The only downside is it is less idiot proof than using an oven.

I've always thought of u/Ramen_Lord's ebook as the go-to. Essentially all aspects of ramen making are covered here. If you don't want to make noodles, just buy chukamen at the store. If you don't want to spend too much time making broth, make a shoyu ramen. Essentially you can choose to focus on what part of the dish you want to master and then move to the next until you are able to make a whole bowl from scratch (if that's your goal).

I'm sure JOC's recipe is great, but since ramen isn't really a homestyle dish, to me it make sense to learn from a resource that isn't focused on homestyle Japanese.

I wouldn't use this one for ramen. She has great Japanese recipes, but I have doubts the ramen recipes would stand up to restaurant quality.

Build your own locally hosted cloud!

This is the hard part to sell people. I feel like for self-hosting to become popular, there would need to be a "plug 'n' play" device that essentially has everything you need to set up a small server on your home network. If you could set up a home server as easily as you can set up a Google Home device, that would be amazing.

Does it execute both, or does it execute the branch that is more likely to be valid? Branch prediction seems like it'd be way more performant than executing both branches until the result of the branch condition is available. If you think about it, what you're proposing will cause the CPU to always execute instructions that are not meant to be executed when confronted with a branch whereas branch prediction will only execute these "useless" instructions in the unlikely scenario where the prediction is incorrect.
