* Created the YSTV Computing Policy.
* Created the YSTV Computing Policy.
* Created the password manager service.
* Created the password manager service.
* Chaired 4 computing meetings. Which where somewhat productive, and helped shape the [[Website 2020]] project.
* Started work on the [[Website 2020]] project primarily doing the [https://api.ystv.co.uk backend] but also made two-ish frontend services:
** [https://github.com/ystv/web-api web-api] - Supposed to be a web API (as the name implies) that powers the majority of the project's functionality.
** [https://github.com/ystv/web-auth web-auth] - Provides a very bodgey [https://auth.ystv.co.uk "SSO"] service for the project.
** [https://github.com/ystv/Website2ElectricBoogaloo DB migration] - Updated things, making it allegedly "better" and made it work with the new project.
** [https://github.com/ystv/video-encode video-transcode] - To replace EncodeSrv with an edgy name and hopefully better approach.
** [https://github.com/ystv/creator-studio creator-studio] - To replace the existing watch admin functionality.
* Setup our [https://cdn.ystv.co.uk "cdn"] (really just 4 instances of minio running to provide an s3 like interface, but it sounds cooler to say its a cdn).
* Replaced web's hard drive. Partially done to stop the constant daily email about a degraded array
* Fixed acmetool when let's encrypt went away from using ACMEv1. Partially done to stop the constant daily email about certificates due to expire.
* Caused a drive crash
* Replaced web's motherboard that was agreed upon being faulty due to it's SATA connections being dubious. The replacement motherboard was also dodgy with a non-working network port which isn't ideal for our main server. Installed a pci-e networking card which couldn't work because the drivers weren't installed. Used a very reliable usb adapter to install the software necessary for the pci-e card to work. Knocked out the webcams after completing the upgrade due to a lack of vlan knowledge.
* Buggered up web's record in lanDB after attempting to change the MAC address for the interface listed, requiring a ticket and an escalation and we lost the domain ystv-stream.sns.york.ac.uk (No idea what it was for) in the process :(
* Specced out the ystv computing upgrades with our £10k grant.
* Complained a lot about the other aspects of the grant spending.
* Helped out with the branding upgrade.
* Organised the 2020 project's public site branding since the two appointed scallywags aren't very good at communicating with each other ;).
* Got burnt out and procrastinated lots of times.
* Reinstalled the OS on both edit0/1 after Adobe not playing well with the computers not being able to connect to the domain controller.
* Rearranged the station's control room to be more "covid secure" and tidied all the mess (pushed into a corner).
* Installed a new CCTV server.
* Got adam-rms for ystv after asking his housemate nicely.
* Misc changes to the current site to keep it maintained somewhat.
