Micro-LEDs boost random number generation

news.ycombinator.com About The Author 2025-09-29 19:48:06

Miniature LEDs called micro-LEDs have been shown to generate random numbers at gigabit-per-second speeds by a team of researchers from Saudi Arabia and the United States[1]. The generation of random numbers is vital for many tasks, including data security — where it is used to create encryption keys and passwords — and computer simulations of complex systems such as the weather and financial markets. There is, therefore, a strong demand to develop cost-effective random number generators that a

The "Most Hated" CSS Feature: Cos() and Sin()

No feature is truly “the worst” in CSS, right? After all, it’s all based on opinion and personal experience, but if we had to reach a consensus, checking the State of CSS 2025 results would be a good starting point. I did exactly that, jumped into the awards section, and there I found it: the “Most Hated Feature,” a title no CSS should have bear… This shocks me, if I’m being honest.
