A comment on Let’s talk about usernames. Parent comment
> Is the idea that guessing both the username and the password together is much harder than guessing the password when you already know the username?
No, to be clearer no one in the last 6 years has ever tried "m" as a password on my root accounts.
I feel very strongly that there is too much stigma around passwords, kitten4 is a nice password if you use it only once.
