xkcd: Externalities
问题 So the April 1, 2013 xkcd Externalities web comic features a Skein 1024 1024 hash breaking contest. I'm assuming that this must be nothing more than a brute force effort where random strings are hashed in an effort to match Randall's posted hash? Is this correct? Also, my knowledge of Skein hashing theory is virtually non-existent but being a halfway decent programmer I was able to download and run both SkeinFish (C#) and Maarten Bodewes Skein implementation (Java) locally in 1024 1024 mode
