Very cute. But all of the presented passwords I got had lots of punctuation strewn about them (most commonly the " character), and the "words" were extreme nonsense. For example, I just generated a new set and I'm getting passphrases like
firs." Neven," drifty-T
and
is!" Mr. Look fore," oble)
Perhaps the best password to date is still complete gobbledygook:
lon tunittory lippile
This has the benefit of at least being pronounceable, but it bears no resemblance to actual words.
All that said, I wonder how it would do with different source material, or source material with all punctuation deleted.
- jbclements 12y agoThings will definitely get a bit longer if you make the source more uniform. I sympathize with you on the quotation marks, though; I think it might be nice to toss just those. Lemme try that.
- jbclements 12y agoI tried it, and ... eliminating the double-quotes looks like a win. Average password lengths in the order-2 model don't increase measurably; it rounds to 20.0 chars for both models. I've now deployed this. Um ... I mean... what quotations? I don't see any quotation marks! (Many thanks.)
- eridius 12y agoIt definitely looks better. I'm curious what the results would be if you eliminated all punctuation, but removing the quotes alone is a marked improvement.
