- pmontra 9y agoBut beware, not only it's a beta from September 2016 vs v1.0 as HTML on the site but it's a PDF and not an epub. Not exactly the best thing on the screen of a phone. Funny thing about the registration, passwords must be between 8 (ok) and 16 characters. Why in 2017 do we still have developers thinking that there must be an upper limit on password length? First it's bad for security, second even a one megabyte password gets stored as a few bytes hash. Are they concerned with scrypt/bcrypt performance?

Why in 2017 do we still have developers thinking that there must be an upper limit on password length? Sorry to be pedantic - but having an upper limit makes sense - how many 10gb passwords would you want to store/run through a hash? 16 does seem a bit low though.
