gollark: No, those are stupidly rare.
gollark: That's basically the entire point of their design.
gollark: You could, but hash functions are designed not to exhibit any patterns.
gollark: This sort of thing is very good at the particular task it's optimized for, but expensive (initial-cost-wise, it's easy to churn out more of them) and entirely unable to do anything else, unlike general-purpose CPUs/GPUs, which are also hilariously expensive in initial investment but can do basically anything and are reusable all over the place.
