How to install and configure PostgreSQL Debian/Ubuntu – for developer use – part 1
Recently I spent some time thinking about what can be improved when it comes to helping new users start using PostgreSQL.
One thing that almost immediately jumped to my mind is – how to install PostgreSQL? The task is theoretically simple. But there are always some caveats – which packages to use, what to configure in the beginning, where to find config files and logs.
With that in mind I decided to write a howto based on my ideas on what is right. These do not necessarily mean that these are the best for everybody, but I think this is a good start for anyone wanting to start their adventure with PostgreSQL.
Final note of warning – this post is for installing and setting PostgreSQL on developer workstation. As in: server where user can do anything, and we don't really care about security. Please do not configure production servers using this howto.

A tale of slow ssh connections
At home I have couple of machines, but one of them takes relatively long time to login to.
It looks like this:
=$ time ssh blob id -u 1000 real 0m0.401s user 0m0.010s sys 0m0.000s
While 0.4s is not very long, it bugged me. And today, I decided to look into it, to see what's happening.
