For instance in a sequence of fair tosses, eventually there will be 8 heads in a row. So if I look for a subsequence of 8 heads in a row, I will find it. This subsequence of all heads is not random, not representative of fair coin tosses. This translates to the real life problem of people who search data sets for a specific result that they want to see. They then present the result of their selected sample as significant or representative, which it isn't. For instance a drug company may run multiple trials in different hospitals. They then select the best results and only publish them. Presenting them as what we would expect to happen in normal use.

This is why we automatically attach a lower value to scientific survey results when we discover that they were funded by some party with an interest in the outcome.

It’s not inevitable. As a trivial but analogous example, consider the probability P that a bit of value 1 appears in a sequence of random bits (repeated flips of a fair coin, for instance). If the sequence is N bits long and uniformly distributed then the probability that at least one of the bits is 1 is P=1-2^(-N) (i.e. opposite of the probability that all the bits are 0). P can get arbitrarily close to 1 (by making N ‘sufficiently large’), for sure, but there is no integer N for which P=1. The same argument, in a slightly more complex form, applies to Will’s corpus appearing in a sequence of random Unicode characters. -- https://www.greenend.org.uk/rjk/

The fact that a random generator can provide anything doesn't mean that anything is random. Shakespeare didn't used words at random: you can understand what he meant. A random generator wouldn't provide only Shakespeare text, it would provide meaningless thing among which the Shakespeare would appear. but you can understand everything Shakespeare provided, so that wasn't random. > (Remember the room full of chimps and keyboards.) Forget about the remembering part. Try to start with the understanding part. > How large is the issue. Perhaps 10^23 chars. Likely a > lot more. No, the issue is the size of your brain. Which is very small, maybe a human being can't find it without special tricks. > But they WILL appear and hence they MUST be random. Yes, but no. Clearly you don't understand what causality is. If I'm asking you the sum of two and three. As you have no clue about simple computation, you will ask the answer to ChatGPT and answer me that it's five. But you could have used a dice instead and with sufficiently enough tries, the dice would ave show you a five. It doesn't mean that ChatGPT used a random generator to provide you the answer. Well, as you don't know how ChatGPT works, you will tell me that ChatGPT is based on statistics and that its answer is random, but it would only show your lack of knowledge. Because if you ask 10 times in a row the sum of two and three, the answer will always be the same. And if you ask the same thing to a dice, the answer would change almost every time. So one is randomly generated when the other isn't. Now, can you tell me which one is and which one isn't? Of course you can't, it was a rhetorical question, but it tells more about you than about what randomness is. > Thus, randomness can only be defined "locally."

He (or it?) does not comprehend human language and thus the text would seem quite random (although it would not pass many rigorous tests of randomness). OTOH, I presented my associate on Planet X^X with a sequence of digits that passed many rigorous tests for randomness. But he (or it?) immediately recognized it as the real root of a certain math equation. It is well known that "almost all" real numbers are "normal," that is their digit sequences are essentially random. But my associate was able predict every digit in the sequence even though it qualified, through testing, as being quite random.

It may appear random and it may test random but these are actually the first 1000 hexadecimal digits of Pi. Thus, it is a completely deterministic sequence. My associate from Planet X^X can easily discern this. For him (or it?) it would be Shakespeare.

No, it wouldn't pass many rigorous tests of randomness. A rigorous test should see a lot of patterns. For example, if the test is rigorous, it should find that there is a limited number of characters. And it should find that some characters appear more often than others. And it should find that some characters are more often combined with other characters. And it should find that some character combinations are more frequent than others. So only a test designed by you could failed to see it's not random. > OTOH, I presented my associate on Planet X^X with a sequence of > digits that passed many rigorous tests for randomness.

The meaning behind a random generator is not to tell that no pattern should ever occur, it means that you can't guess when the pattern will occur. You can try to guess it, maybe you'll be lucky from time to time. But if the generator is truly random, you'll never beat another random generator. > It is well known that "almost all" real numbers are "normal," That means nothing. All real numbers are normal.

Because your random generator is bad. The "being quite random" is a bad random generator. Being able to guess the output of a random generator once in a thousand time is well enough to qualify it as broken which should be avoided. Being able to guess every digit is well enough to qualify it as designed by you. -- Si vous avez du temps à perdre : https://scarpet42.gitlab.io

You can get a true random generator yourself for a relatively small amount of cash. Most are based on counting radioactive decay of some isotope of some element (I am not bothering to look up which one). It seems there's even a Hackaday project about building your own DIY version: https://hackaday.io/project/4628-nuclear-random-number-generator It's not hard, nor difficult, it's just very unnecessary for 99.999% of folks who are doing anything that wants a random number input.

They are both driven by the same generator underneath. The big difference used to be that /dev/random would block when its "entropy estimate" dropped below some arbitrary threshold. With newer kernels that only happens at first bootup. After that, they are both the same now. >> Rather than rely on some canned function, DO add some shit from >> very transient machine-related vars as well. Video vars, CPU >> temps, that kind of shit.

Neither is more random than the other, they are one and the same. The only difference was the blocking action, and that was always based on a misunderstanding early on, which is why it eventually was dropped from the driver in later kernels.

That's quantum... -- “it should be clear by now to everyone that activist environmentalism (or environmental activism) is becoming a general ideology about humans, about their freedom, about the relationship between the individual and the state, and about the manipulation of people under the guise of a 'noble' idea. It is not an honest pursuit of 'sustainable development,' a matter of elementary environmental protection, or a search for rational mechanisms designed to achieve a healthy environment.

Pretty much, theoretically. Tunnel diodes might be exploited in a similar fashion. Anything where 'quantum noise' gets involved. Anyway, STILL hear paranoia from the "Top People" about pseudo-random numbers for hard core crypto. For most of us it's not really a thing, but at the very high/secret levels ... stuff evil players will invest millions/billions into cracking .... Oh, even quantum obeys some statistical rules, on a larger scale states/events ARE kinda constrained. IF you can put enough CPU/AI on the case it could narrow down the best attacks on crypto systems.

I even saw once someone using an input on a sound card as the noise source for a random number generater. I no longer have the link to it however. But speed-of-light guy won't depart from his incorrect preconcieved notion, no matter how much evidence we present to the contrary.

That's exactly how /dev/urandom randomizes itself, so you get that, already done for you, by using /dev/urandom's output. > If you want TRUE "random", I suspect some kind of little quantum > device will be needed. Yes, you need a hardware element for true random, and often they produce randomness slowly, so you won't be reading from your hardware random generator to overwrite a disk with random data anyway.
