PostgreSQL command line cheatsheet

PSQL

Magic words:

psql -U postgres

Some interesting flags (to see all, use -h or --help depending on your psql version):

  • -E: will describe the underlaying queries of the \ commands (cool for learning!)
  • -l: psql will list all databases and then exit (useful if the user you connect with doesn't has a default database, like at AWS RDS)

Understanding Binding and 'this' in Javascript by zach.dev

How to Eyeball Your ‘This’ Context in Javascript

The early programmer struggles with the Javascript keyword this. But understanding your this context is easier than it seems.

This is all about where a function is invoked. Often, early programmers worry about where the function was declared. Perhaps the function was declared in a specific file or a particular object. Surely this changes it's this!

Nope.

Everything you need to know about Shadow DOM

I am moving this gist to a github repo so more people can contribute to it. Also, it makes it easier for me to version control.

Please go to - https://github.com/praveenpuglia/shadow-dom-in-depth for latest version of this document. Also, if you find the document useful, please shower your love, go ⭐️ it. :)

Shadow DOM

Heads Up! It's all about the V1 Spec.

In a nutshell, Shadow DOM enables local scoping for HTML & CSS.
