The nice thing about randomness is that given a random blob, you can xor a non random blob & it's just as random. So this is one input of entropy amongst a cock

- brians 9y agoThat’s true statically. Keeping that true with changes over time is HARD. For example, it matters that the non random blob never gets to see either the random input or the output.
- erhardm 9y agoActually that's the property of xor, not randomness. Data xor uniform distribution -> results in uniform distribution. It doesn't have to be random.
