When you run a site with many users, you have a responsibility to safeguard your users' data. Part of this is having reasonable security, and part of that is having a reasonable admin password. As far as not "really" needing to post this, that's true of any breach of security with no obvious user-observable consequences, regardless of the kind or degree of the breach. edit: Besides, as is the case with the softcore porn in a technical presentation, I'm more worried about the fact he says it's no big deal than the actual security problem. I think "I screwed up totally and apologize for having failed you, this will not happen again" would have been more appropriate than (paraphrase) "I screwed up but this is pretty inconsequential."
