Also this post from Rob Pike with interesting thread of a bit more information about tape recovery https://www.tuhs.org/pipermail/tuhs/2025-November/032758.htm...
Added up there too. Thanks!
It does now. :-) It didn't when I posted earlier

I wrote that article, but I no longer post my stories to HN because I am subject to a block and anything of my own I submit is flagged [dead]. I do not know why, and I have written to ask with no reply.

I only write 5-10 articles a week so I don't exactly spam the site at high frequency, and if I don't feel I can add more context or insight to a story, I don't write it -- except at the very slowest times of the year, and I wouldn't post those stories here.

Ah well.
