Hi all,
Maybe you've seen it: some researchers at USC have argued that iambic tetrameter passwords are not only easy to remember due to their rhythmic character but also practically unbreakable. They have a computer generating couplets that could do well, and suggest that humans would be better off coming up with their own, as a randomizing algorithm could be cracked by another algorithm. So here's our challenge to you: send us your passwords! No, really. Below are supposedly computer-generated passwords. Humans--let's outdo 'em! Post your best unguessable iambic tetrameter rhymed couplet passwords to #iambsafe via
Facebook or
Twitter, or if you prefer email them to
editor@unsplendid.com. We'll consider the best of the best for publication in the upcoming issue of Unsplendid! Deadline: Nov. 18! We're hoping to make this a regular sort of thing...
Cheers,
Doug
