Abbottina
Abbottina is a genus of ray-finned fish in the family Cyprinidae[1], the carps and minnows. They are native to eastern Asia (China, Korea, Japan, and Vietnam).[2] The genus was named for the American zoologist James Fisher Abbott, student at Stanford University and later professor of English at Naval Academy Etajima and of zoology at Washington University.[3][4]

gollark: They have apparently been developing ones which need microwaves/heat to flip (MAMR/HAMR), no idea what happened with those.
gollark: This is in prototypes, they'd never actually ship ones which flipped randomly.
gollark: I think it's that they *can* get smaller, but unless something is done about it they just start randomly flipping bits.
gollark: I think with HDDs they're beginning to run up against physical limits and can't get more than an order of magnitude or two more out. We need better storage technology, or denser flash, or just some way to not use stupid amounts of storage.
gollark: Hahahanope.
