First, the complications - things not working as I'd hope. For some reason, using a moderate Wordpress install on an EC2 instance seems to suck up all the memory and kill MySQL. Ugh! I was hoping to move back into WP as an authoring tool, but it seems like that won't work for now. I've also had too much fun with Docker, and having it suck up all the local memory on my machine -- so awesome. Now, for the things that simplify. It looks like there is a way to track who is logging into zoom in a report. I haven't been able to unleash the magic incantation, but the data seems there. There are also APIs to do interaction and polling, so it looks like I might be able to automate some things, woo hoo. I did a VM move a few days back, but I'm thinking harshly and what I need is like a tiny service and I'm running a huge VM for this, ugh. Maybe I can move just the service bit and spin the big VM up only when I need it? Finally, I need to work a bit on getting Git working and spinning a backup. My personal stuff needs better coverage and I need to push some of this in the forward direction.
