I see these headlines and I put on my math bib and pick up my math fork and get ready for a hefty meal. But all for naught each time; it inevitably comes down to, "Oh yeah someone doesn't protect against nonce reuse and then lols occur." It should no longer be the case that platform vendors are able to abrogate responsibility for bad RNGs or RNG bugs. The stakes are too high for people to get it wrong. Even in 2016 we're still seeing repeats of browsers and OS's with "predictable random number generator" bugs even though we have a pretty clear handle in the literature for how to do it well.
