Ask HN: Mechanical keyboards for programming
I've got my eyes on the Das Prime 13.
I've got my eyes on the Das Prime 13.
The entire bottom half is gone(sigh) and I have no idea what to do. I purchased it in the US, and have come back to India now, so this makes the situation even worse. I have totally no idea what to do, the drop wasn't even 3-4 feet. My previous iPhone 5 survived a 10 foot drop with minor scratches, and a little bit of a crack. I do NOT have Applecare, I never thought I needed it. :(
It really saddens one's heart to have their phone screen broken. This isn't an anti Apple, or spam thread, I'm just wondering what the alternatives are here? Should I shift to Android or something else now that these have become so poorly built?
I'm a competitive programmer who's about to visit San Fransisco for 2-3 days. I was wondering what places I should visit in the Bay Area, I mean, I think it can be a great place to learn and see how startups work, so, any suggestions as to which places I should visit while I'm around would be awesome. I'm looking for a little fun trip with some learning and new experiences maybe.
Maybe being able to visit the startup you work in would be great, I don't know maybe Dropbox, Facebook, Twitter, Box, or any other cool company that allows me take a "tour"...
With the amount of hype around it, it won't be back I guess...
I'm a 14 year old kid from India. I have recently cleared ZCO(Zonal Computing Olympiad). I'm preparing for INOI now. Can someone mentor me and help me learn algorithms ?
Mainly, I need help learning graph theory and dynamic programming. In graph theory, I know the basic concepts like pdfs, bfs and dijkstra and floyd-warshall. But when it comes to using the skills in questions, I fail and am unable to do so. DP is more like my weakest point. So, can someone help me ? I can't really pay much, as my family isn't from a very high economic background, but help from the HN community will be really appreciated.
