    Maybe not the greatest blogger, but certainly the most wrong blogger: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;danluu.com&#x2F;zitron&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;danluu.com&#x2F;zitron&#x2F;

      Being reliably wrong is indistinguishable from having superhuman predictive ability.

        1. Find a secure random number generator that outputs a number between 1 and 1000

        2. Guess the next number

        3. You&#x27;ll be reliably wrong

        Do you have &quot;superhuman predictive ability&quot; in this case?

        Ed Zitron has a similar success rate, perhaps lower
