How we became better front-end developers

This is a story about things we learned on our journey through the past few years, how…

Don’t get me wrong, I understand the developer view-point. I really do. It’s an easy way to build a sustainable business.

However, it’s highly unsustainable for the enduser. We all have a limited budget. We can’t afford to pay for every software that way or we’d be broke.

This is actually bad advice. Advanced password cracking software employ a combination of dictionaries and common phrases. Using written phrases that could be sourced from public sources is bad practice. It actually takes very little time to go trough huge databases (often public domain text sources) when cracking hashes.

After my post went viral, Google responded: “We’re sorry. There’s nothing we can do.”
