Re:A good idea with bad usage: /dev/urandom by smn35 on Monday May 05, 2014 @10:07AM (#7698607)
I think you missed what he was saying. He phrased it a few different ways in the blog and the comments, the clearest probably being: "(/dev/urandom || gettimeofday()) is a very poor source of entropy".

He was complaining about a particular usage he was seeing in the wild, not random and urandom, as he explicitly says a few times.

There are no comments on this comment yet.
