Get the synth wave glow working for VS Code on Mac

These notes are pretty much the same steps as the two extensions list, it's just that I had to collate them together because neither seems to list it fully in the proper order.

1. Install Synthwave ’84/Synthwave + Fluoromachine theme on VS Code (I used the Fluoromachine one)

2. Install Custom CSS and JS Loader

3. Command + Shift + P to open command palette > "Preferences: Open settings (JSON)"

# The goal: create a list of maps of subnet mappings so we don't have to statically hard-code them in aws_lb

SCCM Install using Puppet "package"

This script was donated by a customer of ours. They have sent us a sanitized version of the script to share.

Please use this at your own risk, and fully understand what it is doing before using it!

The Problem:

SCCM Installation fires off in the background and you have no idea whether it worked or not. Also, if any other installs try to start while the SCCM setup is running, you will get an error.

Puppet Node Purging via API

When you're decomissioning a machine that has been managed by Puppet you may want to programatically clean up the node. There are two parts to this:

• revoking and deleting the certificate of the node in Puppet's CA
• deactivating the node in PuppetDB

The following should work for Puppet 4.x and Puppet DB 4.x (including Puppet Enterprise 2016.4.x, 2017.1.x, 2017.2.x).

I've used certificate based auth, and the examples are being run from the puppet master so make use of existing certificates for authentication. When run remotely the cacert, certificate and corresponding private key for authentication will need to be present.
