Yes, it's an acronym). Thursday, December 20, 2012. Ghosts of Passwords Past. I had to log into my Gmail account from a sketchy Internet cafe computer in Buenos Aires a few weeks ago to check on a reservation. Since I generally don't like doing that I made it a point to change my password when I got to the hotel. Tonight I went on autopilot and tried logging in with the old password, and was pleasantly surprised to see this custom error message:. Jake of All Trades. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

http://blog.towform.com/2013/04/moonshots.html

Yes, it's an acronym). Friday, April 19, 2013. Cool article. I especially liked this bit:. Google’s Larry Page on Why Moon Shots Matter. Teller imagines wheeling a Dr. Who time machine into Page’s office. He plugs it in and—it works! But instead of being bowled over, Page asks why it needs a plug. Wouldn’t it be better if it didn’t use power at all? Jake of All Trades. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Jake of All Trades. Signal vs. Noise. Timely Persuasion - Buy Now!
