indubitably··on The State of JavaScript in 2015
This. A lot of the frameworks are doing things that can sort of be done with vanilla JS now — personally I’m waiting on Object.observe to become more widespread.

Gotta be honest my doubts are raised by the HTML4.0 doctype in the sample document.

Because “everyone” means people who don’t necessarily follow browser development trends.
indubitably··on Towards Reliable Storage of 56-bit Secrets in Human Memory [pdf]
But the suggestion is to carry out a simple hash on the input phrase — one could use the second or third letter, for instance. (Or the first, second, third, first, second, third…)

How could a dictionary-style attack predict all possible such arrangments?

Why?
indubitably··on Why Working at Google Is Not My Dream Job Anymore

indubitably··on Why Working at Google Is Not My Dream Job Anymore
People that work at Google live in apartments that have laundry onsite.

Because when they saw to it that the people who previously lived in that apartment were pushed out by rent increases, they also demanded that the landlord put in laundry machines.

That way, they could do their laundry at work and have the satisfaction of checking off "on-site laundry" in their mental status meters.

"on-site laundry machines"

Let's just pause and think about how INSANE that is. Are people that work at Google really so hopelessly dependent on their employer that they can't handle basic bodily sanitation without help?

Let me get this straight. These people are taking their laundry on the Google bus to wash their clothes at work?

Hi, reality much?
