Heating the peppers/anything in an open drum is probably far from optimal. To reach high temperature one may concentrate the beam on a way smaller black metal pipe isolated from the air by using i.e quartz tube. Then pump the hot air t

In bioinformatics there is a lot of usage of blocked gzip, as: concatenated separated compressed chunks which can be indexed and decompressed independently. See BAM format/samtools. Can something like that be adopted by zstd?
