• How to support full Unicode in MySQL databases · Mathias Bynens
• MySQL Unicode Encoding: utf8 vs utf8mb4
• How to convert a big MySQL Database from utf8 to utf8mb4?

Why?

MySQL’s utf8 charset only implements some parts of the whole UTF-8 encoding and it only uses 1 to 3 bytes for encoding. So when you try to use some characters occupying 4 bytes, those characters cannot be stored and there are some warnings.

It is basically the next chapter of my previous gist, Upgrade nut on Ubuntu 18.04.

I'll only document USB connected UPS and not the other supported connection modes.

Why Multiple SSH keys?

There are numerous reasons you may need to use multiple SSH keys for accessing GitHub and BitBucket

You may use the same computer for work and personal development and need to separate your work.

When acting as a consultant, it is common to have multiple GitHub and/or BitBucket accounts depending on which client you may be working for.

You may have different projects you're working on where you would like to segregate your access.
