One line under the counts: the newest random number, and who earned it.
random · next in 1012sThe counter's timing is a source of randomness: the interval between one count and the next is decided by nothing. The service gathers those intervals into a pool and, when the pool has measured enough entropy to justify it, draws 256 bits as hex. This line shows the newest draw and, with more than one counter, the letter of the counter whose counts it came from: each earns its own, from its own arrivals. next in is how long the pool needs at the current rate before it can draw again.
The random is the lab report: how the entropy is measured and why the draw waits for it.
