I love vivid Sydney. Didn’t get to see much of it this year. Next year I think I’ll have to make it a priority.

Guidelines for choosing a good password →
The number of people who have ridiculously insecure passwords still surprises me. Having worked in a job where I was supposed to collect all the users’ passwords (I refused, creating a whole lot of extra work for the help desk and myself), I’ve seen a fair few when it wasn’t communicated to users that was in fact not going to collect their passwords.
