Some dork* has figured out how to break scratch-off lottery tickets, being able to correctly differentiate losers from winners about 90% of the time. He decided he could make more from being a consultant than making money from the tickets, so he went to the ticket makers. The linked article is pretty long, but a quick skim is quite interesting.

*I mean this fondly, of course.
