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)

How to compress PDF with ghostscript

How to compress PDF using ghostscript

As a developer, it bothers me when someone sends me a large pdf file compared to the number of pages. Recently, I recieved a 12MB scanned document for just one letter-sized page... so I got to googlin, like I usually do, and found ghostscript!

to learn more abot ghostscript (gs): https://www.ghostscript.com/

What we are interested in, is the gs command line tool, which provides many options for manipulating PDF, but we are interested in compressign those large PDF's into small yet legible documents.

Fast and simple insecure string hash for JavaScript
// These hashes are for algorithmic use cases, such as bucketing in hashtables, where security isn't
// needed and 32 or 64 bits is enough (that is, rare collisions are acceptable). These are way simpler
// than sha1 (and all its deps) or similar, and with a short, clean (base 36 alphanumeric) result.
// A simple, *insecure* 32-bit hash that's short, fast, and has no dependencies.
// Output is always 7 characters.
// Loosely based on the Java version; see
// https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6122571/simple-non-secure-hash-function-for-javascript
const simpleHash = str => {
let hash = 0;
