Well, except that even most HNers won't immediately grok your command-line example, not to mention most of the people in my family or any family. It's educational at least, and $2 is not much to pay for an education about how not to use your grandchild's name and birthdate as a password.
Not to mention it's awesome that an 11 year old girl is dabbling in cryptography already.
I pay $2 for lemonade at a lemonade stand. It's not because I'm thirsty, and I'm most assuredly not going to comment about how it's an absurdly bad business because Wawa has 40oz drinks for half the price.
Edit: sometimes I am legitimately thirsty.
- vezzy-fnord 11y agoexcept that even most HNers won't immediately grok your command-line example That's a fairly damning outlook you have on "most HNers".
- drdaeman 11y agoDoes it come with an education that if any third party had seen or suspected to have seen your password - even if they swear that they haven't recorded/remembered or even seen it, and even if that's a nice person who must be honest - the password must be considered compromised, all its uses changed ASAP and it must be never used anymore? If no - that's a wrong kind of education we have here. Athough, if customers receive a package with "here's your password, but don't ever use it - see, it was compromised; take this dice instead, check its fairness and generate your own password!" then it's great.
