the idea is that we human sucks at generating random number. When we try to generate a random number, we tend to overthink on how to make it random, and ended up exhibiting a certain pattern (such as evenly spaced data) that we think "random" numbers should have.
I think his program tries to identify the one with said pattern, and classify the data with relatively even distribution as the one you thought up, so the point the articles is more about random number rather than correctly guessing what you did.
The blog has a lot interesting articles on data analysis though, I think I will be spending quite some time going through them. :)
edit: I didn't miss any sarcasm, did i?
