gollark: Bees approach.
gollark: No, this is also not possible unless you just somehow reverse the last bit.
gollark: Well, we can brute force each bit separately I think.
gollark: Oh. Hmm. It isn't 32 bits of output.
gollark: The entire hash is a few tens of arithmetic operations in total, and there are 2^32 possible outputs, so it should be bruteforceable quite fast.
