Learn Lua quickly with this short yet comprehensive and friendly script. It's written as both an introduction and a quick reference. It's also a valid Lua script so you can verify that the code does what it says, and learn more by modifying and running this script in your Lua interpreter.

Things to commit just before leaving your job
// Just before switching jobs:
// Add one of these.
// Preferably into the same commit where you do a large merge.
//
// This started as a tweet with a joke of "C++ pro-tip: #define private public",
// and then it quickly escalated into more and more evil suggestions.
// I've tried to capture interesting suggestions here.

Markdown Parser in 1k of JavaScript
var fs = require("fs"),
src = fs.readFileSync(process.argv[2], 'utf8')
// createParser and createBodyParser creates parsers. A parser takes a string,
// and if successful returns an array of two elements. The object representation
// of consumed portion and the remainder of of the string. If failure returns null.
var markdownParser = createBodyParser("markdown",
createParser('newline', /^(\n+)/),
createParser('h1', /^# ([^\n]+)/),

Resources for Learning Scalable Javascript Architecture

Scalable JS Resources

Forget what you know about Javascript MVC patterns from your experience with Backbone, Ember, Angular, Knockout, Batman, and yada yada. I encourage you to empty your cup, take a step back and open your mind to the ideas presented in the following resources, primarily from minds of Nicholas Zakas and Addy Osmani, two individuals I consider to be thought leaders in the front-end development world.

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)

	default.

$ Matches at the end of string or end of line if multi-line mode is enabled.
