    If you want to reuse an existing cmd window you can type in "cd " then drag/drop the directory from any Explorer shell. You could also close the shell after finishing with it. Not …

    You can hold shift and right-click in Explorer and select "Open Command Window Here" (at least in Win 7 and 8).

    The code in the post is for Python 2.x but if you're running Python 3.x, use this to set up a server: python -m http.server 8000

    Thanks, glad you like it. I wanted an easy way to transfer the URL without installing plugins or having to be signed into specific accounts.

    I created a bookmarklet that does the same thing for any website you're browsing. Makes it easy to transfer from PC to phone, assuming the phone can read QR codes. http://keyboardp…

    I'm not that excited about the product itself but the technology behind it and the opportunities it creates for future tech. I'm sure I'm not the only one looking at it from that a…

    That's a fair comment but stating what makes sense from a business perspective isn't the same as saying you support the actions. Far from it, but when you discuss the actions of co…

    Why would Samsung want to suddenly switch to a Nexus device when they're dominating the entire Android market with the Galaxy brand? Most users don't know what version of Android t…

    >Maybe, but where the idealism gone? Both on HN, in tech circles, and, yes, at Google, there was some healthy dose of idealism. You know, this thing that make people do thing for s…

    Unlike MS and Apple's services, Google doesn't need Android to be a brand. I think it was quite clear from the beginning that their aim isn't to ship devices for the sake of spread…

    Look at it like this. They may have cool new features not seen on existing tablets. Your favourite company might then incorporate and, hopefully, improve upon the feature and you n…

    I think that's more on sites like Reddit where the "karma" relates to the number of upvotes you have. General use of karma is basically saying "what goes around, comes around". It'…

    I generally agree but from first hand experience, I know this isn't always true. Before, I'd be happy to announce/show prototypes of stuff I was working on but it's clear that ther…

    That was a quick response from them and they've submitted an update that fixes the issue (which was unknown to them). https://eeqj.com/20130201/path-privacy/#comment-786209180

    Congratulations to the Minecraft team, well deserved. Hopefully this serves as inspiration to other indie devs working on their projects.

    I agree about the outrage part. There may not be malicious intent from Path, but I do think that there's a better way of allowing users to control their data. A simple extra option…

    Judging by the post we're commenting on, it's not exactly a shot in the dark guess. Technically, Path has done nothing wrong. They've been given permission to the photos and that's…

    I think you're conflating two very different scenarios. Someone saying "I'm in San Francisco" or posting a picture of them at the Golden Gate Bridge is clearly aware that their loc…
