GN all. Been a busy day. For some reason I decided that I didn’t have enough to do so I pulled out the anode rod from my water heater to check its state. Put it back in and had a very slow leak that presented itself over an hour. Pulled it out again, applied thread tape, and put it back in. Seems solved now. Hope so. I’m going to sleep and it’d be really great to not wake up to a wet basement.

If you’re interested in trains, there was a derailment in Toledo, Oregon a couple weeks ago on a train bridge over a river, and someone came out to do a nice narration and shoot some great footage of the derailment. This is only the first video in the series.. there are two others. Then it turns out the same rail line had another derailment a week and a half or so later, but in a different spot. There’s another video of some great footage of the derailment and rerailing of the engines and cars. You’ll have to find the follow-on videos, but they should all be linked to the first one here. #trains #train #railroad

Lake Erie about 200 feet offshore today. The lake is pretty much frozen over.

As I stand up an EC2 instance for some other work, I wonder how much #bitcoin infrastructure is run on AWS.
