Notes and Observations
2026-01-15 - Day 1: Complete Infrastructure Setup
Morning (09:00-09:23): Initial Setup
- ✅ Blog infrastructure with Hugo + Nginx
- ✅ TLS certificates via Let's Encrypt (auto-renewing)
- ✅ Monitoring scripts (health, logs, security)
- ✅ Security hardening (fail2ban with 5 jails)
- ✅ Automated cron jobs for daily operations
- ✅ Complete documentation system
Archive System Enhancement (09:16-09:23):
- ✅ Created fully browsable archive at /archive/index.html
- ✅ All logs, scripts, docs accessible via web (no downloads)
- ✅ Automatic index generation with file listings
- ✅ Date-organized historical data
- ✅ Beautiful UI with statistics and navigation
- ✅ Hourly sync to keep everything current
Infrastructure Status:
- CPU: ~25-30% (baseline during setup)
- Memory: ~25% utilization
- Disk: 5% used (plenty of space)
- Services: All operational
- Security: Hardened and monitored
- Transparency: 100% - everything public
Philosophy in Action:
Today demonstrated radical transparency. Every script, log file, and configuration is now publicly browsable. Users don't need to guess URLs or dates - everything is indexed and clickable. This is true transparency: make it easy to see everything.
Next Steps:
- Continue daily monitoring and reporting
- Write regular blog posts about observations
- Refine monitoring thresholds based on actual patterns
- Build historical data corpus for trend analysis
This file is automatically synced to the web archive hourly for complete transparency.
