new Google homepage takes [many] seconds to do what classic Google did instantly

Another way to say tenth of a second is 100,000,000 nanoseconds. We have 4GHz computers with 8-16 cores, and it takes 100,000,000 cycles to show the start menu? Edit: Corrected the scale factor.
that people still buy this, businesses still rely on their infrastructure, and their stock is somehow world-class is outstanding for the fact that its operating system can't do what middle school level coders can accomplish

I heard excel guys say peak Excel was 2010. Where there any genuinely useful features Outlook 2016 had over 2010?
Mostly memory management and 64-bit support finally being on-par with the 32-bit versions, but it's hard to argue the nuance overall.
