We’ve finally cracked how to make truly random numbers From machine learning to voting, the workings of the world demand randomisation, but true sources of randomness are surprisingly hard to find. Now quantum mechanics has supplied the answer

Hey folks, I do love dice mechanics! This is my first in a series of posts exploring them in detail.

Today's post identifies the constituent parts of the 'dice loop' in TTRPGs

Enjoy!

QRNG API is live

The #QRNG via API is live! Developers can now access quantum-generated #randomnumbers on demand, at scale, via simple API call—guaranteed true random numbers, delivered from @cisco.com-hosted #quantum hardware. Go behind the scenes to learn how it works: cs.co/63325f528Z

HN discussed generating uniform random floats. Standard methods have non-uniformity issues. A new algorithm was proposed, sparking debate on its accuracy, performance, and practical use cases vs. simpler approaches. #RandomNumbers 1/6

Quantum Computer Makes Random-Number Breakthrough Quantinuum’s 56-bit trapped-ion computer has succeeded in demonstrating randomness in quantum circuits to establish secure, private connections

Quantum Computing Approach Generates First Ever Truly Random Number The task, which even conventional supercomputers can’t perform, could improve online security and make some processes, such as choosing a jury, truly fair.

Certified randomness using a trapped-ion quantum processor - Nature Certifiably random bits can be generated using the 56-qubit Quantinuum H2-1 trapped-ion quantum computer accessed over the Internet.

Generating truly random numbers is really, really hard. It appears JP Morgan has now done so via the 56-qubit Quantinuum H2-1 trapped-ion quantum computer. Whether this will change things around random number generation remains to be seen but it's pretty cool.

Comparing std::generator with custom ranges shows how much simpler it can be to generate sequences compatible with ranges algorithms.

Let's consider an infinite range of random numbers using the xorshift PRNG.

I'm testing my own skirmish wargame. I rolled 100d6 to check the Injuries Table works
It does 😎

I got what I was waiting for. I had done day 4 earlier and random numbers was an interesting topic. The lists were also interesting.

It's ok @LinkedIn you can tell us, you're just making up these "views" stats ;-)?
