Essential cheatsheets for web development

I just found that pretty cool summary of links for cheatsheets (mostly one pager with a summary of the most important commands of a service, programming language or ) on the new blog of Marc Andreessen, the man that made the web browser popular. I really needed to put it over here, because otherwise I will again forget about it. I'm so terrible of bookmarking stuff. So I will begin to put more of such stuff - which I might find helpful in future - here.
