Is this true? I always think about what changed in computers. I mean with computers that are a million times faster than they used to be, you'd think latency should be gone for software based issues, but they're not. Firefox uses up more memory than some fucking OS's do. How/why is this? Why is software so bloated, and how do we undo it?
