I was also exploring randomness in JS at some point and found lots of interesting things! One was that the Alea PRNG algorithm[1] by Johannes Baagøe performed faster on JavaScript's floating point numbers. Another was that Dieharder[2] is a really fun tool to test PRNGs. I also made an attempt at consolidating other PRNG methods which were not great[3] and that led me to other people who had done the same[4]. And finally I tried to make a nicer Dieharder wrapper and a simple PRNG library, but lord knows how relevant it is anymore: https://github.com/blixt/js-arbit https://github.com/blixt/js-arbit I guess in this archaeological dig I also found how many useful resources on the internet disappear in less than a decade.
