Can you trust Paul Graham with your password?

I'm predicting a long line of "Can you trust X with your password" link bait posts.

As was mentioned last time if someone is downloading your passwords you have bigger problems to worry about than the way you store your passwords.

I think this was meant as a poke at the previous article, not a serious critique of HN's security.

It was meant as a way of pointing out how you should do password security. I picked on pg just to enrage people on this site. Password security isn't hard but even the gods get it wrong sometimes.

Pity no one has pointed out that HN logins are not encrypted.
