One thing you have to be careful about, though, is that duct tape programmers are the software world equivalent of pretty boys… those breathtakingly good-looking young men who can roll out of bed, without shaving, without combing their hair, and without brushing their teeth, and get on the subway in yesterday’s dirty clothes and look beautiful, because that’s who they are. You, my friend, cannot go out in public without combing your hair. It will frighten the children. Because you’re just not that pretty.

I don't know why but my iPhone's Notes scans have increased a ton in size. It's annoying. But somehow the following procedure fixes it:

pdf2ps unreasonably_large_phone_scan.pdf tmp.ps
ps2pdf tmp.ps compressed-output.pdf
