  1. Blast from the past: an interview with Troy Hunt, the creator of Have I Been Pwned, about silly P@$$w0rds, and why using them does not provide much protection. You can also learn what the word "pwned" really mean and why it is spelled that way.

  11. For sure, the videos on #youtube about a dog that takes an asshole's bag out of the bus are made using #AI.
    As far as I know, the dog should be wearing a #muzzle.
