I don't remember if I posted about it originally, but the #FTRFS (Fault-Tolerant Radiation-Robust Filesystem) repo was updated with a direct link to the paper and more extensive documentation. #FileSystem

Do I have a use for this? No. I just think it's a neat idea, and possibly a good way to learn how a FS module works on linux.
