IT-security would be achieved only if the output of hash function is truly random (uniformly and independently distributed). You need to create a randomness extractor that turns entropy from a source into a truly random bit sequence. What h

Practically, yes. But consider one-time pad or Shamir secret sharing: they stop being information-theoretically secure if you use such conditioning.

Indeed, at least in Russian the original term ("electronic calculating machine"),which was used before "computer" was adopted, was indeed feminine.
