I have everything wired except my headset (Technics EAH-A800), which works well, I haven't had any problems with it. Network cable vs Wifi is a REALLY different experience in terms of performance and ping, which I care more about for

I find them helpful sometimes if they are diagrams given a domain context. Not just the whole DB and all its relationships. Mostly if the relationships are simple, and the naming is reasonable, it is mostly discoverable.

I think the way the test is setup tends to create bias as it relies on mouse clicking and hence how people click on things is going to be a factor.

I think it's more like the black swan problem, you only see white swans such that you believe there is only white swans ( such that historically people made reference to a black swan to imply something that clearly didn't exist )

with my blue switch keyboard, I cannot get a key to register before the "click" and cannot get a click without a key showing up (using my finger) so in a practical way, this really isn't a problem

sounds like you want "Meteor" as it was when it first came out. Which is nearly a decade old now! I really liked it, but the whole community fragmented a while back, not sure what it is like now

I like the idea, but this manual is not very good. It told me almost nothing about the person. Instead it seemed to sound a bit like a corporate manifesto of how one should conduct oneself.
