>The EU cookie laws were well-meaning, but have had the unintended consequence

This is all government.

I'm not sure why we keep expecting anything other than regulatory capture with government intervention.

I have tried to fix this slow loading problem. Happening on 2 separate gaming laptops with SSDs.

Maybe I don't know what to Google.

The quality of Firefox on Windows as software is much to be desired.

Due to slow loading, I'm considering whatever they call the Microsoft browser today.

No surprise here. Apple and Nintendo are cut from the same cloth.

Big marketing budget, medium quality product, high price.

I do my part in capitalism by purchasing products that are quality.

The more students you meet at "top Universities" the more the illusion of superiority disappears.

The students are mind numbingly average. (But don't worry they will let you know what college they went to 12 years ago)

Heck if the job requires any communication, you might be better off finding someone humble or someone who needs to prove themselves.

Or maybe the best of these students go on to work at companies that pay 250k/yr and I just don't meet them.

Marketing doesn't line up with reality.

Not that those who parrot the marketing would be convinced with evidence.

This article comes too soon.

How long have we been able to use millions of entries to machine learn?

I'm still limited by processing speed.

I imagine between math improvements, electrical engineering, computer science improvements/discoveries, and more we can automate jobs that require thinking or fine motor movements.

>was encouraged to pursue professional development, my professional goals and dreams were catered for and I felt like I could make personal progression.

I think this is because instead of giving a pay raise, they offer these benefits.

It costs the company nothing.
