A comment on Ask HN: Why do some the best devs create some of the worst UX/UI?. Parent comment
Yeah, that's a fair point! To the user it doesn't matter.
And to further prove your point, if you access the raw file at https://raw.githubusercontent.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/gsutil..., it only takes 25ms, even uncached. It's half a kB.
Add the Github UI, it's suddenly 1.2 MB... that's 2000x bigger, lol. And even with the UI already loaded, it still takes nearly 500ms to navigate from one file to another. It IS slow, isn't it?
Thanks for clarifying what you meant.
