The last seven bits of every 64-bit chunk actually carry only one bit of information. The bit right before these seven (index [56]) has an abnormally high turnover rate w.r.t. next-door neighbors(66%).
Part of me wants to attribute this to some cellular automaton rule. But isn’t it interesting that, in a chunk, the eighth bit is unusually stable, while the eighth-last bit is unusually volatile? Some weird kind of symmetry at play here.
