Yup didn't think to look. Block was 8 seconds before it. They didn't have time for block assembly.

Sort of counter intuitive, huh? You'd think with the insane hash power and difficulty you wouldn't see blocks go in a few seconds anymore or blocks take an hour but still happens with the same regularity. It is all relative. Yeah it's exponentially harder to find the block but also exponentially more hashpower. Shot pattern doesn't tighten.

It’s all neat stuff to me.

I guess if it’s math and computational then you can just get it right on your first guess… or second, or third try, but very quickly. Won’t happen very often I’m sure but can definitely still happen periodically depending on what’s going on in the network at that time.
