Passwords have probably stopped more people getting into their own account than hackers.

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/Showerthoughts

Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • Bitwarden

    The core infrastructure backend (API, database, Docker, etc). (by bitwarden)

  • Obligatory reminder to use a password manager bitwarden.com and to use a passphrase eff.org/dice for the master password, you can just use random.org if you don't have any dice.

    If only this Troy guy would've told us how the passwords are checked. Oh, wait. He did. And if only this Troy guy would've provided an API to use in case we don't trust the site (since sites can be hacked and code can be changed). Ah, would you look at that. Now if only there weren't some developers out there that could use this API to make tools that'd check for passwords in the same way that's documented in that blog post. Like these ones or this one or other ones which I haven't searched for.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
