Programmers Lifestyle
Gadgets I recommend as a programmer (Software Engineer)
Starting a project from scratch requires planning and sketching.
For that I recommend the reMarkable tablet.
Being a programmer (as the word says) we program, meaning planning the app or website we are gonna build. In order to do that we need a white board to be able to sketch our ideas and add comments/notes on it. The remarkable tablet enables you to downloads PDFs. I use this feature to download diagrams to showcase my ideas.
I got the remarkable 1, there is a newer version but both work the same as a general functionality. I first wanted to try one before I committing to a newer version of it, the price of the first version is more convenient in terms of functionality. Pricey technology is not my thing. I personally belief technology gadgets should be more affordable, especially the ones that are essential for a workplace (If it is mass produce the price should me lower).
Mechanical Keyboards are a trend for a programmers. Why? Because they help you improve your typing abilities. We know is easy to make typing mistakes when coding. Software engineering is a very tedious profession, therefore we love gadgets that can help us avoiding mistakes when debugging.
I got Cherry MX Brown. It is recommended for: “A good blend of typing and gaming. Cherry MX Brown is widely considered to be the best “middle-ground” switch. Its tactile bump, silent travel, and medium actuation force makes it a versatile switch.” according to https://www.pcgamer.com/best-mechanical-switches-for-gaming/
Lastly the most important to consider when you spend so many hours “driving your computer”. I got the “gammers chair” very popular now and I can see why. I love it!
Hope you enjoy them as I do!
