It is a profoundly erroneous truism, repeated by all copy-books and by eminent people when they are making speeches, that we should cultivate the habit of thinking of what we are doing. The precise opposite is the case. Civilization advances by extending the number of important operations which we can perform without thinking about them. (Alfred North Whitehead, 1911.)

Steps for moving an existing static website to gcloud (GCS bucket with an LB in front of it)

Some of this is covered in the gcloud docs here - I add in the part about safely migrating your SSL cert.

This assumes you have an SSL cert chain and private key, similar to those issued by letsencrypt. In my case I'm moving from a VM running nginx and letsencrypt certs.

First, set up the bucket as described in the above docs, or do the auto update from hugo thing I describe in this gist

Make sure access is open: gcloud storage buckets add-iam-policy-binding gs://my-static-assets --member=allUsers --role=roles/storage.objectViewer

ProxMox Cluster - Soup-to-Nutz

aka what i did to get from nothing to done.

note: these are designed to be primarily a re-install guide for myself (writing things down helps me memorize the knowledge), as such don't take any of this on blind faith - some areas are well tested and the docs are very robust, some items, less so). YMMV

Purpose of Proxmox cluster project

How to run a Mastodon dev instance on an M1 Macbook Air

I think I now hoave a minimal set of steps required to get Mastodon dev running on an M1 Macbook Air. I may have missed some, because I got there through a bunch of trial and error, which may have installed extra dependencies. If this doesn't work, please let me know.

These instructions are based around https://docs.joinmastodon.org/dev/setup/#vagrant and https://github.com/ppggff/vagrant-qemu .
