An under-appreciated fact is that while MVCC (multi-version concurrency control) systems like Postgres are strongly consistent, they can appear to be eventually consistent from a client's perspective. What do I mean? Let's say you have a field, inserted_at, for some table: create table access_logs ( id serial primary key,
A toolbox language is a programming language that’s good at solving problems without requiring third party packages. My default toolbox languages are Python and shell scripts, which you probably already know about. Here are some of my more obscure ones. AutoHotKey Had to show up! Autohotkey is basically “shell scripting for GUIs”. Just a fantastic tool to smooth over using unprogrammable applications. It’s Windows-only but similar things exist for Mac and Linux.
When I was first starting out in software engineering, it felt like there was a never-ending barrage of tooling to learn. After more than a decade in CLI environments, I still find myself constantly learning new features and fun facts - but it’s fairly rare that I learn something new that I end up using day-to-day. I wanted to share some things I learned at relatively late stages in the game that ended up being significant productivity boosters for me - perhaps some of them are well-known, but in the spirit of this XCKD, I hope that someone reading this might pick up something new.
