Google Domains Tech Support Team Definitely Wins Today

Google Domains Tech Support Team Definitely Wins Today

After pushing through lots of issues across multiple hosting platforms and multiple cms tools, Google Domains Tech Support team definitely did the best job of just doing their job.  Firebase .... so far not useful.

Using Firebase to host a Blog.  Static content.  Jekyll it is.  


So PRessable so far isn’t impressing me with their support.  They didn’t make it braindead simple to point a subdomain.  Not sure who is winning from the painful lack of tech ability at Shopify and Pressable. Now I’m afraid posting to Village the Game blog will take coding skills.  This is insanity. Maybe my fears will be abated as I learn firebase and how nifty it is.
So here we go.

Issues

  1. So how do to make subdomain blog.villagethegame.com point to the site.
  2. Won’t let me add second A record:
    1. Resolved.  Google Domains tech support “Gem” showed me how to add second ip on first try.  Yay!!
  3. Not off to a good start. Can’t even fucking deploy.  And firebase tech support doesn’t respond until monday.

  1. So even after buying Google Cloud Gold Support, there is no solution.
    1. Firebase: https://firebase.google.com/support/  | These people don’t seem to have a portal for tickets… argh.
    2. LinkedIn Leads on Firebase team/staff:

  2. Since Firebase deploy is failing and Firebase Support is unresponsive I’m digging up backup plan of hosting on a cms for app engine standard environment.  
    1. /Users/darianhickman/gdk2/bin/gcloud
    2. Hello World for go app engine.
    3. Hmm… something obvious failed here so backtracking even further just setting up several subdomains and just decide which one wins …
Setting up Sub Domains for Handling Content whereever it make reside:

  1. Github Pages for VillagethegGame.github.io worked per directions.  Not too painful of a setup.
    1. http://blog3.villagethegame.com/  successfully points to: villagethegame.github.io
  2. Google Storage was a pain in the ass on several previous attempts at hosting public static content.  Doing obvious things like makeing a bucket recursively and permanently public was miserable.  But stack overflow slowly the rescue: gsutil defacl set public-read gs://bucket Unaiherran

How effective is Blogger at sharing now.

This works great for 1 day trips somewhere if you have a fridge and laptop plugged in.  

Brazil is Cool and I want in on the Action

Many have asked and many times I have explained Why Brazil? I am going to Brazil because something is going on down there, and I want in on it. Spiritually there is a huge revival going on down there. Small groups explode into megachurches. People receive prophecy and obey to go on and do great things for God. And more missionaries hail from Brazil than any other country in the world. Here's a few stories that inspired me: One prayer team from Brazil instigated a revival in Goa, India. Stephen Baldwin becomes a Christian because a Brazilian nanny obeyed prophecy. A Brazilian Missionary defies 'The Prince of Peru' to instigate revival in Peru. I believe that when I get down there I'll find mentors to take me into more powerful prayer, into more effective evangelism, and more mission-oriented churches. Essentially my hope for Brazil is that I can find a community who will help me take my faith from applying the wisdom of the Bible to something more personal ......
