Can you name a few companies where this is practiced? Maybe if we all start going to those places (I would happily take less pay for a healthier/happier work life) then maybe our managers would start following them

I guess you are right, this banter does indeed not help us learn anything. The quotation for the second founder was to refer to the fact that some (maybe inaccurately) dispute Newton's credit for calculus and I really did not mean to b

"Founder of quantum mechanics"? He just theorized the photoelectric effect and he opposed basic principles of quantum mechanics all his life! And you didn't even mention great minds like Placnk, Faraday, Tesla, Rutherford, Pa

I don't think Lavabit was that big of a bussiness. They had to shutdown just because of a $10,000 contempt fee. And even if they didn't have enough foresight to have regular attorney, it seems very bullish for the government to tr

Then I could just make my rand(service1) chars larger. No point in adding it to email address at all. Email leak (privacy) is an issue that this could help with but I do not see any benefit in terms of securing my account

This was sarcasm right? In all seriousness though, I think titles like "passwords stolen" are a little misleading. Article titles should either be "hashed passwords stolen" or "plaintext passwords stolen" IMO.
