Bug: Podcast posts doesn't display comments

Fix RSS link and communicate how to keep up to date

I never really understood how feedburner worked. I set it up because I thought I would want analytics on subscribers. This rationale became obsolete when I decided to remove analytics from the website: 3df6653

It's time to remove feedburner from the picture and just use the https://scottmuc.com/atom.xml that's generated and learn to how to make it work.

Concerns:

• How to ensure that what I use can be migrated to hugo in the future.
• How to communicate to those subscribed via feedburner to update their feeds.
• Understand how this feed fits in an overall communication channel (X, Mastadon, FB, etc)

In the end, I take pleasure in "owning" my website. I would rather take the harder path and maintain this property well and let integrations with third-party platforms ebb and flow.

Post: Developer Workstation Automation

Source

https://github.com/scottmuc/scottmuc.github.com/blob/source/source/_posts/2016-10-11-osx-workstation-setup-automation.markdown

Notes

• Hierarchy of dependencies (should Vagrant be in workstation or in project?) (too much info for this blog post)
• What should be vendored (addressed in duplication section, but needs to be moved to the appendix)
• but but but but... containers! (ignore for now, there's enough to talk about in this post)
• been a thing since '99 (http://joeyh.name/svnhome/) (will be added to the appendix

Tasks:

• Objective statement
• How to reinstall El Capitan
• SSH key managment
• What are the alternatives
• How does my automation work
• Why start with $HOME
• Why still use sprout-wrap
• Document rational around vim setup (pathogen + submodules vs the rest)
• Create a rough manifest describing the major pieces of the automation.
• Machine level and workstation level duplication
• Move other tools into an "appendix"
• Focus on personal workstation, and leave out workplace specific (may require removal of duplication tangent, or moving it to the "appendix")
• Add details around secrets management to use a password manager as an alternative to USB
• Add a disclaimer and write about how I treat my system as a stateless environment
• Typo scan
• Restructure to go over my process (with timing info) and break rationale into "appendix" segments.
• Move some rationale arguments into the osx-homedir repository?
• Add http://joeyh.name/svnhome/ to "appendix"

Yo,

You seem to have a broken link in your latest blog. In your summary para, you reference your yearly goals, but that link does not seem to exist.

Post: Developer / Operations Information Architecture

Notes

Finding information about a complex software system is hard. Information is scattered everywhere and there's no single way to find it. Attempts to organize, categorize, and label rarely results in easy to find information.

The problem with software projects are that the questions do require a human to answer... like "Where do I obtain the AWS keys to the s3 buckets for a development pipelines?".

I dream of making the virtual assistant for a developer. The AI pair.

Examples

• cd-help developed at SoundCloud
• Google! As a developer I could go to StackOverflow, but using Google as the entry point is much better
