In practice, you basically get one-bit error correction 'for free' when you have enough redundancy to detect two-bit soft errors. Simple parity can only detect one bit flip, so if you want to catch two-bit errors, you might as well correct one-bit errors you find on your way at no extra cost.

The site you quoted seems to be something that someone copied & pasted and slapped together. When the author says "32 bill per run", he seems to imply that the whole sheet always has the same serial number. Well, it certainly is not always true as you can see in this high-res photo of an uncut sheet of 1985 bills:

http://ultrafree.org/graphics/1985-1uncut.jpeg

A much more informative site which seems to be someone's labor of love says there is an exception with old Nationals "in which all notes on a sheet had the same serial number and had to be distinguished by their plate position letters." Although he's not explicit, my reading of that site suggests that modern bills (including the time of the D. B. Cooper incident) should be unique.

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 billion.

Speaking as someone who is a tad over 6ft tall, and not a body builder, it fits me quite well. My bmi when I started paying attention was roughly 26, which I was shocked at, and I got defensive about very quickly saying "it's incorrect for tall people" but the fact of the matter was I was about 20 pounds (10kg) overweight. It also quite well describes my partner, who is about 5ft5-6

As usual with these kinds of books, there is no mention of the work done by Muslim astronomers hundreds of years before either Copernicus or Kepler. Do you actually think these two astronomers and other scientists just came up with their results? That's not how science works.

Unfortunately many Western historians casually ignore or at best minimize the impact the Islamic scientific movement had on many fields such as philosophy, mathematics, physics, chemistry, and astronomy. Instead they jump from the Greeks to the pre-Renaissance era. "If Europe was in a state of academic decline, so was everyone else". As the saying goes, the winner gets to rewrite history.
I highly recommend Arthur Koestler's 'Sleepwalkers'. It's a detailed history of Copernicus, Brahe and in particular Kepler, but is also about how new models of knowledge gain traction. So it goes way beyond simplistic 'lone genius' analyses but still celebrates the great achievements of individuals. A wonderful read.
Never assume that the people attacking you are doing so because they are stupid. Some people may truly misunderstand encryption, it is extremely unlikely that Clinton, McCain, the the directors of several TLAs actually believe they can re-bottle the encryption genie.

Stopping encryption is obviously not the goal.

They may want to put a leash on the power that Silicon Valley has been gaining over the last few decades. Asking for something impossible is a good way to set someone up to fail, especially when the you can tie it to various recent tragedies with the usual emotion-driven rhetoric.

Maybe the goal is just to scare people away from encryption by associating it with terrorists or the fear of arrest for aiding-and-abetting[1].

What about banking and other business uses of encryption? Nobody ever said the government was internally consistent; selective enforcement is a powerful tool. I'm sure those uses will continue to be ignored.

I forgot one my favorites -- roast beets. Buy beets, shave the outsides with a carrot peeler, then slice approx 6-7mm thick. Roast on cookie tray with olive oil, salt, pepper. They get soft and sweet. The 3rd picture down shows about the right thickness.

Again, 3 minutes of prep time for 2 or 3 roast beets. Both red and yellow beets are amazing. Just don't freak out the next morning when you pee.

And now that I think of it, these recipes work great for asparagus. It's a little trickier though: if overcooked, it gets mushy.

Exactly, it's as hard and error prone as generating the randoms yourself. The solution you described requires an analysis of the hash function to determine collision probability, diligence to find a sha-256 implementation (circa a few years ago), review of said implementation, another analysis to figure out your truncation, then a proper implementation resulting in ~the same amount of code, except this time slower and with less entropy.
I understand why they want unique generated id's, i don't understand why they just didn't use UUID/Guid, which are way more performant ( string vs int) and less big in size ( 22 bytes vs 16 bytes).

Both are created for the same purpose and Guid's are even possible as keys in MS SQL Server (next to the standard autoincremented integer). So it's safe to say that it's pretty reliable.
Huh. I always check for collisions if I'm using a random number as a unique key. I guess it's faster to just not check, but it's just a single seek to check for existence. It's pretty fast, and you almost never have to do it twice.

As a side benefit you can get by with shorter (more human readable, typeable, fits-in-a-tweet) keys because you correct the few collisions you get.

If the extra keyspace seek were ever a serious performance bottleneck I would just skip the collision check in that one spot and use a proper RNG as OP is suggesting. But how often does that really happen? Very few systems need to generate millions of unique keys a second.

* UUIDs are one-size-fits-all 36 character base-16 encoded strings. If you want a short random identifier that you can use in a URL (that people might need to type on a phone or something) they're not ideal. Re-encoding them and/or truncating them is as hard and error prone as just generating the randoms yourself.

Google's shortener is also not very good in a url ( as implementation of unique short identifier).

Any solution that has it possible to have an I ( capital i) or l ( lowercased l) in the same sentence is flawed due to various fonts in any app where you can use an url ( SMS, facebook, Whatsapp, browsers, nokia 3310 ...)
"using a generator that won't fail"

It seems your original function made the same assumption of V8's Math.random. All PRNGs fail at some point, even CSPRNGs. You may as well write your code accordingly, with less optimistic assumptions.

If you're not going to be adding layers of safety, and if you're going to keep insisting that your PRNG "won't fail" then I guess it's only a matter of time before you will have to repeat the same mistake.

As other commenters have pointed out, you should have written your function in such a way that it does not place a critical reliance on any single component.

Didn't XP only get decent after a bunch of service packs? ... is that not the same thing as 10.3?
I have another reason based on some mucking with simple PNG's a long time ago. Might not apply to more complicated ones[1].

Maximal cycle length generators don't produce degenerate sequences. Meaning I seem to remember ones where they'd have say a sequence of 2^k - 349 and a sequence of 340 and a sequence of 7. Which means they fail badly if seeded incorrectly.

[1] Noting an old article I read on FPGA design that said, 'helps to design your state machines so that that illegal states transition to legal ones' So I assume sub 2^k generators exist that don't have sub-sequences.

Still seems to have plenty of vulnerabilities within a codebase that will never be updated anymore.
The shuffle question ties in with the overlap question. Let's stick with the AES in counter mode example. AES is a block cipher, or in other words a keyed permutation. What this means is that each key (resp. seed) determines a distinct permutation that we use to generate the blocks AES_K(0), AES_K(1), etc. In effect, each seed will result in an entirely distinct and independent 2^128-block sequence, instead of simply the same sequence starting at a different place, which is usually the case for non-cryptographic generators. So 2^128 possible keys (or 2^256, if you go AES-256) times 2^128 output blocks per key is probably enough to cover all possible card shuffles.

I do believe that. RC4 is a good example, actually; the unexpected properties that make RC4 be considered completely broken for cryptography are considered irrelevant for simulations (I won't swear by this, but I'll bet that RC4 passes all of TestU01's tests). The standards are just so much higher for cryptographic primitives. I'm sure unsexy generators can be suitable to this or that application. But due to the ad hoc nature of the statistical tests used, you can't be sure that your generator is not oddly correlated with a concrete application. I've written a comment a few days ago---on a thread very similar to this one---about a real-world case of this happening [1].

Not sure how much your question is focused on LTSpice, but there are tons of applications and VST plugins that can simulate amplifiers and effect pedals in real time with "good enough" (some artists use them to record their albums) quality, e.g. Amplitube, Guitar Rig, Peavey Revalver, LePou, etc.
Exactly what I said in the last sentence of my post. Thank you for your contribution though.
Checking for collisions becomes hardly possible in distributed systems pretty quickly (take git as an extreme example), and provides virtually no benefit if you can trust your RNG.

At those astronomical possibilities, there are many things that can go wrong before collisions become viable. Think about it: Why bother checking, when you have a somewhat similarly egregious probability that a random bit flip occurs right after your check?

In the situations you encountered, it's probably simple and cheap, but in the cases where it's not (the situation in the article being a probable example), it can be expensive, error-prone complexity without gain.
