Trying and trying and click it begins to make sense.
More of I understand the components of this magic spell. I'm eons off (it feels) from understanding it at a fundamental level but that's so much better then I was a weekish ago.
Basically we're creating a rolling hash, which uses a gear hash (256 random values) plus a mask bit to define content boundaries. Still magical sounding but I understand in principal a 10% instead of 1%.
That's a win.
