else disabled. I clearly remember not being able to make the cursor 'jump'
around expressions.

I have debugging disabled, but my parenthesis highlighting is NOT disabled.
Are we talking about the same parenthesis highlighting? Can you attach the
screenshot of this "parenthesis highlighting is also disabled" to the
mailing list?

There’s one thing I noticed: if debugging is disabled, then parenthesis
highlighting is also disabled (as well as other visual aids, if I remember
well?). The editor also feels faster because of this, but navigating
parentheses becomes slightly more tedious without it.

It current exists already! The screenshot I attached above is from the

It could go either way, no? I've also heard a lot of people complaining
that debugging Racket programs is difficult because the stack trace is not
useful, and this is because they use the command-line version which doesn't
have errortrace enabled (by default).

Thanks Dexter,
Yes, now I know it’s due to the debugging and tracing configuration. After
turn off debugging and profiling, it becomes.
cpu time: 20 real time: 20 gc time: 0
If disable Preserve stacktrace also, I got.
cpu time: 7 real time: 7 gc time: 0
Which is pretty decent, 16x
Hi Liwei,
I believe disabling debugging and tracing does accelerate the evaluation
quite a bit from inside DrRacket. On my system, it seems to be running my
code at the same speed as the main racket binary.

It is crucial to understand that "lowering barriers" can mean different

You can lower barrier by helping someone to learn.
And you can actually "lower barrier" by diminishing the goal.

Mr. Atlas, since this seems to be only your second contribution to the

In any case, I can agree with you on the value of education. But
1. To increase inclusiveness of some group of people, you educate people
from this group on the subject of lisp racket computer science etc.
2. By lowering "barriers" you just welcome someone who doesn't care for the
project and ruining community from inside.
3. By making a show about what
Thank you very much Matthew and Neil for those refreshing write-ups!
I'm really glad to see the question of inclusion, diversity (not the
politically charged American meaning), and overall well-being in an mostly
online community.

I care a lot about Racket — the technology, but especially the human community
that makes it possible.
