Random() Adventures in Minecrosoftcraft

Presented at Kiwicon 8: It's always 1989 in Computer Security (2014), Dec. 12, 2014, 3:15 p.m. (15 minutes).

2.5 billion dollars is a fair bit of money to spend on a game. It took about $1B for Elon Musk to launch a private space program including designing their own rocket engines from scratch, so it should go a fair way. Minecraft was obviously worth every cent. I will speak today about exploiting random number weaknesses to gain sweet server secrets from this fantabulous fantasy engine, and will be giving out code release treats. Let me know if you work out how to make a few billion from them.

    Tim/pruby/whatever is not going to pretend to be a badass. If you undercharge him, he will hunt you down and PAY YOU BACK. He didn't have to bribe anyone to get in to the con this year, they let him in all legitimate like.
