      @bascule @dakami @tqbf @eqe If you're typing the letters "Math.random" you're doing it wrong.

      @dakami @bascule @tqbf @eqe Math.random isn't "broken" any more than whiskey, it's not intended to be used as an infant formula.

      @dakami @bascule @tqbf @eqe http://www.ecma-international.org/ecma-262/5.1/#sec-15.8.2.14 … Anyone who uses this to generate crypto key material is incompetent. "Full stop."

      @marshray @dakami @bascule @eqe Huh? Who would use Math.random for crypto?

      @deezthugs @marshray @dakami @bascule @eqe @sleevi_ really, this seems like a discussion over something self-evidently dumb.

      @tqbf @deezthugs @marshray @eqe @sleevi_ tl:dr: @dakami wants JS Math.random to be a CSRNG. Seems ok

      @bascule @deezthugs @marshray @eqe @sleevi_ @dakami how about maybe first the real js CSPRNG gets deployed?

      @dakami even if Math.random were secure I think I'd still probably prefer a crypto-specific API's RNG, or at least something named "Secure"

          @bascule @tqbf @deezthugs @eqe @sleevi_ @dakami How about we just have the trusted server provide 200 bits of entropy to the browser? HMM???

          @marshray @tqbf @deezthugs @eqe @sleevi_ @dakami not a bad idea if the trusted server is running on localhost ;)
