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…

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 p…

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 o…

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 infrastructu…

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 …

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 check…

We're seeing connectivity issues around us-west-2 for the past hour (since around 3:30 AM PST). AWS status page is green as always. Is anyone else experiencing issues?

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 A…

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 floatin…

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 ju…

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 …

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 ou…

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 …

Good to know - thanks and best of luck to you guys!

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…

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 consu…
