Exploring game development with quantum random numbers
In gaming, randomness is often seen as both a blessing and a curse. On one hand, it can keep things exciting and unpredictable. On the other hand, it can frustrate players who feel that their success or failure is determined by chance. But what if randomness itself could be harnessed to create a unique gaming experience?
Inside Quantum Dice: Clifford’s path from climate science to code
Meet Clifford Olawaiye, a software engineer at Quantum Dice, whose career journey so far has taken him from a climate science and meteorology degree, to embedded systems engineering in the oil and gas industry, to our technology team here at QD.
3 reasons why random number generators (RNGs) are not all created equal
Find out why quantum random number generators (QRNGs) are superior to classical random number generators (RNGs) and why Quantum Dice's DISC protocol means its QRNG technology is superior to other available QRNGs.
