We humans like to think we can predict everything—but randomness has other plans! From coin tosses and shuffled cards to computer-generated passwords and slot machines, chance is everywhere, and our brains are surprisingly bad at handling it. In this episode, we explore how randomness shapes games, data security, and even everyday life, and why finding patterns where none exist is just part of being human. Prepare to dive into the science of unpredictability and entropy in a way that's both fun and mind-bending.
This episode was prepared with the help of AI, and the content is written by OYLA authors. For subscription, please visit: oyla.us, oyla.uk, oyla.au, oyla.eu, oyla.co.in to check it out!
