Thanks for your feedback. I think the server was just overwhelmed. Normally, the search works instantly. Even though, I am located in Germany and the server is located in the US. I debounce the search for 250ms.

I highly doubt your assessment. When you have a short position, with underlying values you don't own, you have a leveraged investment. Which is inherently more risky than investments in a base value. The idea is not to have perfect neg

The positioning is not objectively wrong. Where do you get this from? Did you make tests with people who never used a PC before? Who are not biased? Or is this your opinion, which would be subjectively by definition. UI usage is mostly lear

I would say if you only want to learn the language the official docs are great. If you want to learn programming with Racket as the language How to Design Programs is great: https://htdp.org/ Or if you want an online course

Why they have this bad touchpads is beyond me. Then it would be better to ditch them completely and position the keyboard nearer to the user. Like tho good Linux support though.
