I found Cmd+Shift+G in finder handy. It'll open a text box to type your desired path and supports tab completions.

I'm familiar with it as extensions, and not completely happy with any - lacking keyboard shortcuts, losing some of my tabs/groups, no synching across devices, multiple backgrounded tabs still running and killing performance and ot

Ctrl-a + Ctrl-a, works like a charm :)

Nice. I did something similar w/ tmux: map the prefix key to C-a and map CapsLock key to Ctrl (never found real use for it). So Ctrl-a (actually CapsLock-a) is very ergonomically pleasant.

Of course - think about schools with deep pockets compared to those without much; top talent will flock to these, leaving smaller/less wealthy schools. Today athletes weigh a lot of factors when choosing where to attend - academics, at

An IT automation framework like Ansible (my favorite), Chef, Puppet, Salt. Highly recommended if your work includes doing repetitive remote server tasks or any sort of infrastructure / devops stuff.

https://oribi.io does that and more. Disclaimer - it's neither self hosted nor free (nor very expensive), and I was previously a part of the team that built it. I can honestly say no data is being sold to 3rd parties, as sh

Thanks for that - following up on your lead and checking https://www.ubuntu.com/usn/xenial , there seem to have been several unattended security upgrades issued yesterday. We checked several machines' /var&#x2

SourceTree is a great VCS tool, but why this seemingly basic feature request is ignored for nearly 3 years is beyond me. I'm hoping posting it here will at least get someone from Atlassian to comment on the issue.

As a former swimmer, I can say that shaving is not only done for drag. Once shaved and in the water, even while casually swimming in warmup, I would feel as if I'm actually floating better. We'd call the "feel for the water&q

Agreed. Following https://gobyexample.com and http://rustbyexample.com , a http://cppbyexample.com kind of site would be quite useful for people who are familiar with coding and just want to experience som

Very cool - solid library all the way. As an aside, I keep hoping Google (or others) open sources a bunch of their internal Go libraries; I'm just gussing here, but surely they've built a bunch of tools outside the standard librar

I sympathize because I went through almost exactly the same experience with YC - we applied to W14, flew to the interview and did not get in. Myself and 3 co-founders are all in our early to mid 30's, and have put in about the same amo

What did you use for your db backend with Go? Gorp, beedb, database/sql, other? Just curious, as I've been looking at building some api's with go and martini lately.

I did, they switched us to a new machine - no change. Their support was great, but the hardware needed to catch up. Perhaps this upgrade will help.

I have mixed feelings about this. We're in the process of moving from Linode to Rackspace but haven't flicked the switch just yet - was planning to this weekend. Our Linode server (16 GB plan) has been performing terrible lately w

I tried to find the restrictions/performance costs of storing and accessing medium to large blobs of text in rethinkdb store (say, for a simple web crawler), but couldn't find docs related to that. Is there a size restriction or s

Agreed - My first reaction was "Google == Cyberdyne Systems". I hope a lot of good comes out of this, but I cannot help but think of worst case scenarios. Then again, maybe I consume too much sci-fi movies and books.

Works - thanks for the tip. A simple [x] icon (perhaps with a "click ESC to close" tooltip) will also be nice, as there's currently no visual indication on how to close it.

I love firefox and use it daily for my work. The only time I switch to Chrome is when I use console.log(<some object or DOM node>) and get an [Object object] printed out. Sure I can click on it and get a breakdown (still haven't

Thank you for this. I was going to say OP's (your) girlfriend went through this 8 months ago, which probably meant a completely different looking checkout page. We all know startups are constantly trying different things in their UI to

I do most of my coding at work (rails, python, ruby, js, html, css), where we have ubuntu machines - I LOVE gedit and simply can't do without it. It has a powerful plugins system, and there's a good repo at github.com/lexrupy/gmate that con
