There are devices that measure radioactive decay for operations where truly random numbers are very important. Or something like that, I am not an expert, sorry.
Interesting. As I understand it, pure computing (not sensors recording external data) are incapable of generating truly random numbers. But I’m obviously not an expert either!
I’ve been using “Perfect Passwords” for years, which apparently generate nearly random passwords from server noise, but he admits it’s still not truly 100% random…
Computers can be random with special hardware.
Care to elaborate?
