Homebrew broken installation QUALITY STANDARDS - homebrew

Was trying to install Homebrew on new mac, clicked on the wrong link here https://github.com/Homebrew/install, the one which sets the 2 exports HOMEBREW_BREW_GIT_REMOTE and HOMEBREW_CORE_GIT_REMOTE, so I accidentaly set both of these to '...'. Is there a way to unset them, or is homebrew forever broken for me?
PS: StackOverflow didn't like the title for some unexplained reason, so I added the 'quality standards' in caps, thats somehow fine...

Solved it by formating the mac to factory settings & getting macincloud account. Don't buy crApple products unless you hate yourself

unset HOMEBREW_BREW_GIT_REMOTE unset HOMEBREW_CORE_GIT_REMOTE resets those
environment variables

Codesigning electron app for windows (on windows)

As it says in the title, this is what im trying to do: using windows 10, codesign my electron app using the certificate purchased from a third party vendor (which is in p12 format).
I've read the docs here: https://www.electron.build/configuration/win and here: https://www.electron.build/code-signing
And realise that I need to provide a path to the certificate file and password (if one is set) using the appropriate keys (certificateFile and certificatePassword).
I've also seen these answers:
How to sign in windows installer using electron builder
(There's also loads of questions and answers referring to people building for windows on mac, but that's not what im doing here)
But this doesnt seem to address the question.
These are how the lines in my package.json are set referring to the relevant path/password:
"certificateFile ": "./certificate_file.p12",
"certificatePassword ": "password"
I realise that it is better to have these set in a .env file and read them from there, which I intend to do later. But as I understand it, this should suffice shouldnt it?
My build command is:
"build": "electron-builder build"
And this produces the following:
But there is no mention of signing taking place at all. If Im being royally stupid, please feel free to point out where ^_^ many thanks in advance!
Updates
Queried with project maintainers on github, code signing is supposed to take place automatically provided the variables are set correctly, see convo here: https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder/issues/6895)
It may be significantly simpler to sign your exe OUTSIDE of electron builder. In which case, the approach I took was to use SSL.com's SSL manager GUI.
You can read about it toward the bottom of this page and see their documentation of the tool here.
About a week looking into codesigning with electron builder, still not entirely sure how to do it.
About 5 mins using this tool. Done.
I don't remember the whole process but I had to fumble around for a few days to get it working.
In my package.json file I have a build object like this:
"build":
...
"win": {
"certificateFile": "private/mycertificate.pfx",
"verifyUpdateCodeSignature": true,
"publisherName": [
"My Company Name"
]
},
Then before publishing I run this in windows powershell to set the env variable:
setx CSC_KEY_PASSWORD my-certifcate-password-here
Then finally:
electron-builder -w

Electron builder - GitHub Personal Access Token is not set, neither programmatically, nor using env "GH_TOKEN"

I have an electron app for which I want to set up an auto-updater. I followed this blog post and made a small demo, it worked great with some small changes.
Then I tried to implement it with my real project and now I am getting an error.
GitHub Personal Access Token is not set, neither programmatically, nor using env "GH_TOKEN"
I already have electron-builder.yml file and i even tried setting up GT_TOKEN anv variable but it still throws same error.
Forget about that post, I tried to implement it but faced many issues with that.
Try this one.
But take a note that For macOS, you will need a code-signing certificate.
For windows and Linux it works seemlessly.
Just follow the instructions.
For exporting the token, you need to add the export line at the end of the .bashrc or .profile in Linux/Mac. Google it if you don't know how.
Make sure to restart IDE/Terminal to inherit latest env variable.
Well, I found the solution, I set env key in .bash_profile and it worked. I don't know why setting GH_TOKEN in the main.js file and in electron_builder.yml file didn't work. It works in the beginning but then when I added more configuration to package.json file it started throwing this error.

Virtualized Puppet master showing alphanumeric error when trying to load the dashboard

When I try to go to the puppet dashboard it loads up a white page saying
The environment must be purely alphanumeric, not ''
I googled this error a bit but there does not seem to be a finite solution yet. As fast as what I've done I've looked into the conf.d files, but I'm afraid to make the wrong edit. I'm still new to this and was wondering if anyone has ever ran into a similar situation?
This happens if one tries to access puppet console in wrong port (8140) instead of 443, assuming default ports are being used.
This also happens when you install puppet-passenger The opensource.
In this case - everything is OK!
Install Open Source agent and be a Puppet Master :)

JIRA Issue type drop down list is blank when trying creating an issue

When I try creating an JIRA issue, my issue type list is blank. But it works just fine on another PC.
Is there any setting that I need to activate? Thank you in advance.
Without more detailed background on the difference between the two machines here are the possible fixes that come to mind:
Be sure that you are using the same user account with the same user priviliges
Check that you are using the same browser with all dependencies installed (java)
Consider re-indexing JIRA from the Administration Panel
Check your schemes to insure you don't have non-applicable dupes
Hope this helps.

Need to recover older $PATH setting

I have just installed an app which overwrote my $PATH variable... so now, a bunch of stuff will not work. While I have a full backup, I am hoping that there is an easier approach than to restore, get the PATH, the "roll it forward" again.
Is there a location in the windows registry (or anywhere else) that stores an older $PATH setting?
Thanks,
GS
If anyone is interested, I found the answer...
using REGEDIT, it is under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Session Manager\Environment or
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet002\Control\Session Manager\Environment
In my case, it was under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet002...
GS
type in cmd:
set path=%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;
above code will set the path temporarily. To set permanently, add %SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\; to System Properties -> Advanced System Settings -> Environment Variables
