Yeah, I’d rather trust well understood, deterministic CSPRNGs than opaque hardware that might just have a non-obvious defect.

- remus 6y agoOn the other hand, if you are relying on software you're working higher up the stack so there's more room for bugs to creep in. Or put another way, that software is running on hardware that might have a non-obvious defect. Maybe it's better to just cut out the middleman?
