Uh oh!</p> <p><img alt="certificate expired" loading="lazy" src="http://www.gordonburgett.net/images/2017/cert_expired.png"></p> <p>Fortunately I just need to request a new certificate from Let&rsquo;s Encrypt and install it. I&rsquo;ve done this before, it&rsquo;s a 10 minute job. Buuuuuttt&hellip; what if I could automate it? If I spend all afternoon on this I&rsquo;ll save myself 15 minutes of work every 3 months! That math totally works out right?<br> What does the XKCD guy have to say about it?</p>
