Nobody's claiming there's no difference between /dev/random and /dev/urandom. They're just saying you should always use /dev/urandom.

Not sure what up with all the downvotes. I'm just saying that Java defaults to /dev/random and Java is kind of a big and important and all that, so not sure why everyone is giving crap to poor little Ruby about this.
