My argument was that you cannot clean that specific hardware like you clean your table and cutlery. It is simply not convenient. I don't see how you can wash a laptop under any circumstance, apart from a complete disassembly.

The only information on PCG I can find is the author's own paper which also fails some TestU01 tests. I am much more inclined to trust an established generator than an unproved one.

Can someone explain how the following calculation was done? With 2¹³² possible values, if identifiers were randomly generated at the rate of one million per second for the next 300 years the chance of a collision would be roughly 1 in six

Second expression in the for loop and ||, both behave as conditionals, i.e. are equivalent to an if statement and the generated instruction will be a branch. At least it would in C. Of course I'm ignoring the fact that JS is interprete
