Resolves YES if someone puts two strings with identical SHA-256 hashes in the comments, or otherwise links to a public source describing such a pair of strings.

Update 2025-06-10 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): The creator has clarified that 'strings' in the resolution criteria refers to any pair of octet strings. This means no other properties (e.g., being valid UTF-8, free of NUL characters, or adhering to specific size limits) are required for the strings.

When you say "strings", do you mean any octet string, or do you mean that it has to be a "string" in some usual sense (sub-1TiB, valid UTF-8, free of NUL characters, etc.)?

@JamesEAdministrator Any pair of octet strings would work.
