A few days ago, while working on a bug at work, I noticed something odd: after I fixed the bug, the default client name value in a dropdown component took almost 2 to 3 seconds to appear after the page loaded. That kind of lag is probably unacceptable to users, so I know I had […]

They proposed an intriguing interpretation […]
