I think that executing that S-box twice would get you back where you started. gijobarts (talk) 05:28, 30 July 2013 (UTC)

" and so is the author Randall Munroe at PyCon"

I think that post is a joke.
  • It links to 541: TED Talk, which says it was done "mockingly".
  • There isn't anything on YouTube or Randall's Wikipedia page about it.
  • Another Python blog says that it was a publicity stunt, citing the organizers' mailing list archives. I didn't bother to sign up for access to the archive.
Catherine Devlin claims that she banned Randall, so we could try asking her if she's serious.
