Is there an established word for the chronic build up in annoyance of waiting a few hundred ms each time you click something on a smart phone or computer?

- andrewmcwatters 5y agoYeah. It drives me nuts that in tech we pay more attention to processing power over things like response times and latency. Who cares if you have hardware that’s 15% more powerful than last year if nothing has moved meaningfully in my actual experience.
- fighterpilot 5y agoIt's why I prefer desktop/local software whenever it's available and whenever it's something I need to be using often. Cloud software is usually noticeably slower. Latency should be a UX priority.
- xxpor 5y agoThis is why edge computing + 5g is being pushed so heavily.
