Matters not. You still have no idea which one of my main passwords, how many they are nor where its used. Also, this particular password is non-critical which is why I used it as an example, but you're welcome to try and hack my accounts ;)

Probably from NIST Special Publication 800-63. Level 3 authentication requires cryptographic keys with an entropy of at least 80 bits. http://csrc.nist.gov/publications/nistpubs/800-63/SP800-63V1...

I think 80 is overkill. I'd say anything above 60 is secure enough for most passwords. One of my main password (consisting of only lowercase letters) has an entropy of 78.7 bits, which is good enough to safely guard sensitive information li

If you are adding to the 8 char password you aren't creating unique passwords. They share the initial 8 chars with each other. Still, this method is much more secure then using password.ly.

Which is why I am against such services. Imho, they do more harm then good.

This merely gives the user a false sense of security. What if a hacker get hold of your master password? I rather advocate the use of different high-entropy passwords divided in security tiers. A junk password for places you don't care abou

How about... The diapositives, motion blur, scratched wooden surface background and shadowed borders (simulated lighting)? Those are the main design elements of the site, and are all skeuomorphic.

Not related to the article. Seems Bret doesn't care much about us Windows users. It's more or less impossible to scroll with your scroll-wheel with that custom scroller. Personally I think he's trying too hard with worrydream.com. I feel it

This is really old, created in 2009/03/18. You an also use: gravoogle.com or gravigoogle.com to get to this page. He also created the Google Sphere a couple of months later, though that one has never been updated to the new design: http://

If you don't like your workflow, change it. It's really as simple as that. If you can't change it, switch to a job where you can. Trying to change how other people perceive you or your job will only make it worse. Just because so many are f

This is like comparing apples and oranges. I'm inclined to think that the creator of this video is biased towards AeroFS.

Read the article again. Child molestation and rape is obviously never acceptable (except to the most disturbed of minds), but the same should be said about putting innocents in jail. You lower yourself to the most abysmal level to wish Rick

You're not the only one. Considering that the owner have ads on the site, gives evidence of someone who want to make a quick and easy buck from trolling the community.

Yeah I agree with you that they haven't really created a jellyfish. It's not much more then a muscle that contracts in the same way as a jellyfish when subjected to an electrical charge. But if you read it all you'll notice the following pa

I'm not so sure about this whole "tell a great story" shabang. Sure, it's a part of the whole picture, but I am definately sure that Apple has a lot more to gain to keep things under the lid as long as possible, then to just "tell a great s

And how does not having code names for products ruin the great story more when the product is known? It wasn't about secrecy, remember...

What's aesthetically pleasing to a OSX-user might be something totally different to a Windows-user. A UX designer who doesn't know that, is worthless as well ;)

I wonder if they wrote such a friendly cease-and-desist letter to Rockbaren in Gothenburg, Sweden. According to the new owner of the night club, this had already been played out between the old owner and JD. Seems not! http://www.goteborgd

There are 2 main (tech) differences: - Mongrel2 uses SUB/PUB (2 channel), BlastBeat uses ROUTER/DEALER, you only need one channel for request and response. - Mongrel2 put the whole request in a single message, this is easier but forces you
