Fri Sep 9 20:43:25 EDT 2016 Shit. Lost a huge diary entry for today. `/var` filled up on the vps, and I guess the file didn't survive. In mysql, I did `PURGE BINARY LOGS TO 'mysql-bin.000021';`, then edited `/etc/my.cnf` to reduce the chances of this happening again: expire_logs_days = 3 max_binlog_size = 102400 Strangely, we can set the maximum number of days worth of logs to keep, and the maximum size of each log (max_binlog_size), but these two things together don't guarantee a maximum grand total. So, reconstructed as best I recall... Slept from just before eleven until just before seven. Woke briefly around five, but quickly fell back to sleep. Work: - Fixed a logrotate permissions issue with the Asterisk logs on gab - logrotate's `-d` flag is actually helpful - Scott took the afternoon off Home: - Renewed by AAA membership - Confirmed that Karina, Scott, Ed, and Steve are coming for D&D on Sunday - Grocery shopping, including snacks for Sunday - Tidied up a few things around the house - Did a considerable amount of work on the static website generator Took an uneventful ten minute walk at lunch after I ate. It was hot today. Breakfast: carrots, mixed greens, coffee with half-and-half Lunch: Thai curry noodles Dinner: coffee cake
