Hi everyone, I'm Chris Wanstrath.
When Jeremy asked me to come talk, I said yes. Hell yes. Immediately. But
then I took a few moments and thought, Wait, why? Why me? What am I supposed
to say that's interesting? Something about Ruby, perhaps. Maybe the
future of it. The future of something, at least. That sounds
keynote-y.

2) unlike config files, there is little chance of them being checked
into the code repo accidentally
3) unlike custom config files, or other config mechanisms such as Java

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)

Area-proportional Venn Diagrams
// Since `overlapArea` function is monotonic increasing, we can perform a

// area within epsilon of the desired overlap.
function distanceForOverlapArea(r1, r2, desiredOverlap) {
// Ensure r1 <= r2
if (r1 > r2) {
var temp = r2;
r2 = r1;
r1 = temp;
