I've always though about the strategy/tactics divide as a continuum between larger scale (global/long-term) vs smaller scale (local/short-term) concerns. I might be off in this, but that's the interpretation I have

Hmmm, thanks, maybe I should try that. I wonder if it would help if I wrote a little program that plays short note sequences and then asks me to recreate the sequence (possibly modulo transposition).

What happened to me once is that a long-time password of mine got truncated as the website lowered it's maximum password length, and the login page didn't truncate, so my full correct password suddenly stopped working. The pain.
