Competitive programming skill. Just right click any where on Win11 and see how slow the menu will pop up. 100 of thousands Microsoft employees and NONE of them

  CP just teaches some familiarity with DSA/algorithms, and there's much more to perf than DSA. Even assessing algorithmic performance requires real benchmarks and profiling, while the complexity analysis people do in CP disregards other factors like hardware, architecture, format, and other abstractions. Squeezing perf via DSA is much more easier/straightforward, people don't need to grind CP to learn that

  Navigate to Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop. In the right-hand pane, look for "MenuShowDelay" Change to 0 delay.

    Doesn't that change the hover-over pop-up speed, like when you're selecting a sub menu item in a tree? Does it also affect the initial click? I used to do that on every Windows installation. Then I eventually just gave up on Windows, lol.

  This is also noticeable in videogames. If I open a menu and press a direction button 5 times (e.g. to move between menus) because my muscle memory has learned that the thing I want is at that position, then why tf is the game ignoring those 5 button presses just because there was some slow ass fade-in animation happening? Looking at you, Monster Hunter World.
