I don't know man, my TV has hardware several orders of magnitude faster and more advanced than the hardware that took us to the moon, and it takes dozens of seconds for apps like Netflix or Amazon Prime Video to load dashboards / change profiles or several seconds to do simple navigation or adjust playback. People just don't know how to properly write software these days, universities just churn out code monkeys with a vicious feedback loop occurring at the workplaces afterwards.

yes. I've observed hardware get faster and faster for 30+ years and I've watched software consume all of that headroom the entire time, for no clear reason other than the way we write software is just getting worse and worse and worse.

So true and so annoying.

Yes, but while you wait for the software to load, don't you have a smile on your face thinking that the developers used "clean code principles"?
