What Hacker News says?

  1. As far as I know, it hasn't been formally verified. Andrea Lattuada ( https://andrea.lattuada.me/ ) is more likely to have done work in his implementation of the algorithm than I did on mine. I have run the testing with various dynamic analysis tools, but for sure this isn't formal verification. If someone is interested in doing it, happy to chat with them!
