Hi, /g/. So I've started coding. I decided to learn Python because apparently thats what most people start with. It seems simple right now, and I'm getting the hang of it. but I'm still running in to a few problems with one big one that's really stopping me from achieving the full 'coder' experience so I must ask - what's the best mechanical keyboard?
ur a fucking idiot catch aids
You should probably get pretty deep into a language before you spend any money on anything. Honestly coding is one of the few things you can learn completely for free, why fuck that up?

this

I'll still learn I just want the keyboard too
>>55017977
Learn Forth.
>>55017977
Learns how to do if statements and a for loop....NEED A HACKER KEYBOARD, GUYZ.
>>55018277 lets face it I would learn code a lot quicker
>>55018467
A mechanical keyboard will allow you to learn data structures and algorithms a lot quicker? Interesting.
>>55018467
no you won't lol.
I learned how to code on a $200 craptop.
you'll learn how to code if you want to. Not bc you have a mechanical keyboard. You won't even be able to logic fast enough for your keyboard to matter at this point. Some of the best coders learned on paper.

>I decided to learn Python because apparently thats what most people start with
Most people are bad programmers.
>>55017977
i got a "saltek" low profile keyboard, after evaluating a lot
>>55017977
The obvious answer will be an Apple™ keyboard to show people how much of a fag you are
>>55017977
I made it to 90k salary using rubber domes
Not sure if serious or a truly glorious troll
>>55017997
I agree

I think it's serious. A lot of people get caught up in the same trap. I wanted to learn photography, but I wanted to make sure I had the perfect camera(s), collection of lenses, tripod, etc... when all I really needed to do was take some fucking pictures.
Buying stuff and trying to get "everything you need" is a lot easier than actually diving into unknown, confusing territory and trying to teach yourself.
- OP wants to start Programming
- First thing that OP is worried about is it to get the proper kbd.
--> OP programming it's not for you...

It's more accurate to say that's what some people start with. You don't make a generalized statement based on just the opinions of just a few strangers on the internet.

What the fuck is this indentation?
Summerfag GTFO
>>55017977
Yes
>>55017997
pretty much this
>>55017977
Has /g/ fallen this low, that it's not even able to detect bait/sarcasm anymore?
Also this >>55020854
>>55018570
Why?
>>55021355
I was trolling lol
>this thread
kill me
Don't get a mechanical kb op it's useless. I tried some of them and the difference is not worth $150. If you want to be the cool kid, remember not to get cherry mx, but an $200+ topre. Obviously this has nothing to do with coding. I learnt python with an $30 rubber keyboard and i had no problems. Also consider an SSD and the latest NVIDIA® GTX© 1070, that will definitely improve your experience
;^)
OP make sure you get a keyboard that inserts spaces as tabs
>>55017977
start with anything with static typing. starting out with dynamic typing will fuck you over big time.
>coding
nevermind. future code artisan detected
jesus guys it was a joke I didn't realise it'd trigger all of you
