   Thanks for the individual plug, Alon. I’m hoping I can get a post devoted exclusively to math (not debunking bad math) up before the next edition, and it will probably be the one I was working on but couldn’t make deadline for TCOM (preview: it was about low-level pseudorandom number generation, i.e., in ASM code, which gives you a pretty cool understanding of how computers pass statistical tests for randomness).
