A08M31, the only stupid question is the one that you don't ask.

When you play with values ​​8, 16, 24 ..., it generates a set of colors; with 16 bits, obviously the number of colors generated is small (65,535 colors) unlike the 24 bits which can represent 16,777,216 different colors (by the way the human eye can only distinguish 10 million colors), if you change it to 32 bits it probably can not be represented on certain computers. Thanks to your comment I decided to analyze this line of code in depth, and I realized that sometimes it does not generate a valid color, because the code used here is copy/paste ( :D ), from stackoverflow, the solution to this problem is in the following link, codegolf.stackexchange.com/questio...

Do not forget to read the next part of this blog, because you will find more interesting things!

Thank You!
