01:22:33<systwi_>Erm, the outside of an HDD platter is supposed to be faster than the inside, right?
01:22:36<systwi_>(ignoring fragmenting)
01:23:59<systwi_>Maybe it's because the disks heat up as they go along, but I've been block-scanning a handful of HDDs and their scans tend to gradually slow down as they progress.
01:24:38<systwi_>Nothing unbearably slow/signs of failure, but, just slower.
01:30:38<@JAA>Yes, the further out, the more data per rotation since the data density is about constant.

02:57:35<@JAA>Last night, I had a discussion about obscure ways to write one-liners in Python for shell pipelines. I came up with one that's too ... 'good' not to also share here: `seq 10 | python3 -c 'import pickle, sys; sys.modules = type("m", (map,), {"__getitem__": lambda self, k: None})(lambda x: print(x, end = ""), sys.stdin); (o := type("o", (object,), {})).__module__ = None; pickle.dumps(o)'`
02:58:04<@JAA>It gets worse the longer you stare at it, especially if you're familiar with Python. :-)

05:46:11<theblazehen|m>systwi_: I believe HDDs write outside -> inside for that very reason - boot files written at the "start " of the disk located on the outside, makes it faster etc. Curious if that holds up if you read the disk backwards? (ddrescue --reverse)
