A comment on Ask HN: Password best practices?.
* Use a passphrase of at least five random words.[1]
* Keep that passphrases secret.[2]
* Use a password manager like 1Password or Keepass to generate and manage all other passwords.[3]
[1]: Good passwords have high entropy and are easy to remember. For that reason, passphrases are preferred to passwords.
[2]: It's ok to write down your passphrase, but keep it somewhere safe -- like your wallet.
[3]: Password managers prevent password reuse and make life easier. Sync passwords across devices.
