Day 20

Today, I:

  • initiated a restore of some very old images stored in AWS S3 Glacier β€” listed keys, ran aws s3api restore-object per key with GlacierJobParameters.Tier set to Bulk and a 7-day availability window, then planned to run aws s3 sync from the bucket to a local folder once the restores finish
aws s3 ls s3://tonystrawberry-xxxx/ --recursive \
    | awk '{print $4}' \
    | xargs -I {} aws s3api restore-object \
        --bucket tonystrawberry-memories \
        --key "{}" \
        --restore-request '{"Days":7,"GlacierJobParameters":{"Tier":"Bulk"}}'

# once all restored
aws s3 sync s3://tonystrawberry-memories/ ./tonystrawberry-memories/
  • used Vertex AI with the Gemini 2.5 Flash TTS model to generate audio for Shirimono
  • started playing Pokemon Go β€” guess my free time will be busy from now on
  • continued reading DDIA chapter 7 on transactions β€” very heavy; not writing a memo yet since I'm not done, will continue tomorrow
