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:
    2. 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.
    4. Firebase: https://firebase.google.com/support/  | These people don’t seem to have a portal for tickets… argh.
    5. 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.

Yes I'm reading parenting articles quite pre-emptively. I liked this one

It seems like modern parenting is an exhausting pain in the ass.  Somehow the task has become more difficult not less even with technology to help us do everything.   By the way, why are there still not washing machines for babies.  How has this been overlooked.  There are enough engineering couples who have tied the knot and started a family.  There's no excuse for this to not exist yet. https://www.romper.com/p/i-tried-minimalist-parenting-for-a-week-it-was-a-total-game-changer-74237 Romper Home Flowcharts News Moms Unfiltered Pregnancy Sex & Relationships Baby Toddler Kid Health Entertainment Motherhood Food Fashion & Beauty Company About Contact Terms Privacy Courtesy of goodmoments/Fotolia I Tried Minimalist Parenting For A Week, & It Was A Total Game Changer By  Ambrosia Brody 4 days ago SHARE Being present at all times with my children is an elusive goal.

Rant: I hate Google Cloud but I don't want to.

I just wasted 3 hours trying to get Google Cloud SQL to work.  After digging through docs and support forums I couldn't set up IPv6 access to my sql instance. This isn't the first time I've wasted tremendous time getting such a basic access feature to work.  I went through a nearly  parallel issue with Google Compute Engine.  It took over a week to get the answers I needed to get a network access working for Google Compute Engine. I have a problem and I admit it. :  I know Google Cloud will eventually dominate.  I can't help myself from trying to use the inevitable technological leader in the cloud wars, but damn give me back all the money and months I wasted learning these platforms.  If I could just turn off my engineering supremacy OCD ... just get prototypes working on traditional boring crappy tech,  I'd have way more streams of income by now and hate my tech life far less. Speaking of money:  There's still no clearcut way to cap monthly spend on Goog
