Software developer at MagicMaps GmbH.
Usually I'll answer questions here about Java, C#, PowerShell, batch files, random numbers, regular expressions and Unicode. At work I primarily deal with C++, C#, PHP and a few other things.
My interests are mostly HCI, Interaction Design and UX. Recently I18n joined that list as well. That does not mean I have profound knowledge in either of those fields, just that I am interested in them.
Note: People contacting me outside SO/SE is fine, but for discussing their own questions or answers SO already provides a mechanism, namely edits and comments. So please use those things first.
I do hang around on Freenode as Hypftier, though.

Why are Microsoft Windows Update taking so long to install? I wouldn't really recommend turning system restore points off. They're a very good option of restoring a broken update which otherwise might require a reinstall |

Why are Microsoft Windows Update taking so long to install? And things break on both systems :). Some Windows installations don't like a particular update and on Linux all it takes is a library update with an incompatible API change (gettext tends to do that sometimes) where not all dependencies are prepared for it. |

Better way to wait a few seconds in a bat file? Note that the article says “Windows Server 2000”; that's not Windows 2000 and the server OSes may indeed have this. Not the consumer ones before Vista, though (and Vista mybe only because its starting point was the Server 2k3 codebase). |

Better way to wait a few seconds in a bat file? Massimo, you likely have the Server 2003 Resource Kit or similar installed which comes with a few utilities that shipped by default on later versions. |

Better way to wait a few seconds in a bat file? Massimo, it's a solution that works on pretty much any Windows without resorting to tools that may not exist on older versions. |

Better way to wait a few seconds in a bat file? Massimo: Only if you installed a resource kit, I guess. Not natively included. |

Sudo !! equivalent in PowerShell Actually, $^ is the first token of the previous command. If I dot-source a script with . ./foo.ps1 then $^ is .. This also means that arguments are not contained. Doing anything that exceeds a single token will not work this way. |

Get current directory path in windows command line? @Mohammad: Indeed, it is the current directory. The other one is the directory where the batch file is. Those two are not the same and your question asks explicitly for this one. So please edit it if that is not what you mean. |

Why does the Windows command line change the command when running from a .bat file? +1. Indeed, cmd is just clarifying here (especially the 1> part). The statements are identical. |
