  This is wonderful. Not sure if the submitter is the one who made this, but thank you for making it and/or submitting it. These sort of code-as-art projects always make my day brighter :)

  In case it's not clear: this tries to use the submitted password to log in to Google, FB, Twitter, GitHub, Reddit, and HN, and reject if it's re-used.

  The password manager he recommends, pass, is fantastic. It's exactly what a password manager should be.
