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 ;)
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 like financial records, but then again, it's 21 characters long :)
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.
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 about or fully trust, a generic password to use on trusted services and secure passwords for crucial services.
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's hard to navigate, with bad responsiveness and clunky, even on Chrome. I believe the bad UX comes from the skeuomorphic design. I've never seen such design work good for a software UI.
That aside, Bret Victor is a genius and I love most of is work. He's a great inspiration to me, and should be to anyone involved in any form of software development.
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://mrdoob.com/96/google_sphere
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 feeling that they are stuck in a continuously endless loop of negative feedback, doesn't mean its right or the only thing there is. You, and only you, have the power to change your own mindset (for the better or worse). There's nothing that does that for you.
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 upon this fate.
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.
