Onboarding new employees remotely - it's still a nightmare. Those who joined companies during the pandemic often have never physically met their colleagues.
Yep.
These issues can all be overcome as we learn how to remote work
How?
It's actually 48 hours for Prime
It varies between countries. In the UK, it's one day.

I'm going to disagree—I'm really impressed with HMRC's technology. Their website is extremely well laid out and as well explained as any complex system can be. Their login system is 2FA with SMS messages (not perfect, but it's better than most things and it works). Every interaction I've ever needed has been possible online. It all works pretty well online (and that's rapidly becoming the case for the UK government as a whole).
HMRC's website is better than the website for my mobile phone and utility companies, that's certain. This latest problem is indeed a problem, but they're generally good with technology.
Improving haptic feedback is a good idea, as the current attempts simply don't feel realistic. However, doctors feeling tumours? Why? That's a sophisticated audience; people who have trained, through qualifications and experience, to understand tumours through imaging. Yes, scrolling through a CT scan with a mouse wheel isn't realistic, but they've learnt to accommodate.
On the other hand, the masses using touchscreen, that's an open market. Maybe it's a worthwhile one, maybe it's not. But that's the market to try. Otherwise it's like selling finger-friendly guitars. The professionals have adapted their fingers to the current steel--calluses and all. It's the beginners you want to target.
Wales may have gotten its own assembly as part of the devoluion of powers, but it's still part of England, has been ever since Edward I conquered it.
Build a system that even a fool can use and only a fool will want to use it.
