Readit NewsIt's fun seeing all these patterns. I did some edit. I was thinking that skipping over numbers divisible by 2 and 5 will get rid of most visible gaps, but they keep emerging.
> Now, in August 2025, after another year-and-a-half of work confirming and reviewing their findings, Gehman and her team have published a peer-reviewed study in the journal Nature Ecology & Evolution identifying Vibrio pectenicida, a saltwater-loving bacterium that works its way into sea star fluids, as the likely “dominant pathogen responsible for sea star wasting disease.” Gehman’s team has tracked down the killer.
> Also, we can see that pseudo 3-random is substantially better than pseudo 2-random, which indicates that k-random is probably an improvement over 2-random for the k. Some k-random policy might be an improvement over DIP.
This sounds very similar to tournament selection schemes in evolutionary algorithms. You can control the amount of selective pressure by adjusting the tournament size.
I think the biggest advantage here is performance. A 1v1 tournament is extremely cheap to run. You don't need to maintain a total global ordering of anything.
