I saw a good thread yesterday by an agriculture policy wonk that I follow about using grasses for carbon sequestration
<SnoopJeDi>
"We haven't researched this enough but uh grass is pretty awesome and some form of it grows in...a lot of places? we should see if this is a good base to work from"
<SnoopJeDi>
(can't build navies out of grass, after all)

UmbralRaptop, so that's what my labmate's thesis was about, actually
<SnoopJeDi>
A fab process for BSCCO 2212 wire that doesn't require you to do the reaction under pressure, specifically. Conventionally, you put BSCCO powder in a silver tube and react, but the pressures are enormous so the reaction vessel is basically a bomb.
<SnoopJeDi>
(it has to be done under inert gas, and the pressure is necessary to keep intra-matrix voids from blowing out at high temp
<SnoopJeDi>
)
<UmbralRaptop>
!!!
<SnoopJeDi>
his technique involves mechanically pressing the powder into a (annoyingly fragile) bar, which is then inserted into a tube, and the tubes are stacked and drawn a couple of times.
<SnoopJeDi>
not only does it avoid the whole problem of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NG1qKzIsisU but it also texturizes the powder and gives good ab-plane grain connectivity
<SnoopJeDi>
I think it's why HTS usually get rolled out into tape: to establish that connectivity because current only flows in that plane
<SnoopJeDi>

ooh, yes apparently!

yikes "SOFIA is a working science laboratory and is not handicapped accessible."

...that seems to have gotten things unstuck
<bofh>
sometimes I can see unlink() failing due to inode insanity, in which case ftruncate() should fix that.

I wasn't certain b/c I'm not sure how insane the quota system on linux is beyond knowing that all quota systems, everywhere, are eggstremely cursèd.
