Anyone have an idea of how "technical difficulties" got introduced into the process? What comes to mind is (maybe) using a default seed? Re-initializing the number-picking-machine? Am really curious to see what kind of logical bug could lead to duplicate numbers in pairs like September 28 and September 30, and ... September 29 and October 3.
- mrguyorama 9y agoOne idea is if the call to the random number generator was designed to return either random data OR an error code indicating failure. Multiple failures of the same type would therefore produce the same numbers, barring any sort of "mixing" with other random or non-random data. This is wild conjecture of course
