On its own, yes, fair, but it was combined with the 64 and 128 bit variants which aren't uninteresting.

Yes, me.

The original post asked "I would like to see the collision distribution on /usr/share/dict/words." and that is what they got a demonstration of - some collisions on 32 bit, none on 64 or 128 bit. What else could be done to satisfy their original request in a way that would be interesting to you?
- vlovich123 2y agoPoint to the fact that it passes smasher in addition to that 64-bit and 128-bit variants don’t have collisions and ignore 32-bit altogether. I don’t know why libraries even bother producing 32-bit variants at this point because of how easy a collision is.
