Thinking Out Loud
Art is a big subject, so I shall keep this brief. Art has a massive impact on shaping our personalities, whether we think it does or not. Consider for a moment, any online service that requires you to write a profile about yourself. Something that is designed to provide a summary of your personality, abilities and your likes and dislikes. IE Facebook, a dating app or even your online resume. Frequently, these profiles will require us to define ourselves by what we read, watch and listen to. Yes, other information is included in such profiles but directly or indirectly, we are asked about our artistic preferences. Possibly we do not consider such a line of questioning to be about art but essentially it is. So we dutifully state which art we cleave to and then look for reciprocal taste in others. Does this not prove that art is important?
Password Managers
As we get older, we acquire more of the following three things. Keys, items that need charging and passwords. All of which are a pain in the butt. Your key collection grows mainly because you’re an adult and someone thinks you’re responsible. Hence you not only have your own keys but a set for work and possibly spares from members of your family. As for items that need charging, that seems to be pretty much all technology these days. It’s why power sockets now come with a USB option. But this is the world that we live in and until it changes, we just have to try and get by the best we can. Today I want to talk about passwords. The fact that we have so many of them and what is the best way to manage them. But before I move on to the subject of password management, let’s go over the basics of what is actually considered to be a “good” password and by good, I mean one that is hard-to-crack.
