Using the above principles, how can we design a good password?

Tip 1: Replace characters with ones that sound the same

For example, you can replace the letter e in succeed with the number 1 {note this sounds the same in Mandarin}, so that it becomes succ11d, which is easy to remember and combines numbers and letters.

Tip 2: Replace characters with ones that look the same

For example, you can replace the o in dog with 0 and it becomes d0g. It mixes letters and numbers.

Tip 3: fill with special symbols

For example, the above password d0g is not long enough, so you can add special symbols at the end, e.g. d0g!(!(!(!(!(!(, it will be easy to remember, but hackers will need 12,340 centuries to crack it.

Tip 4: Using Chinese input method

For example, the phonetic input method of the four words "My Password" is the combination of "ji32k7au4a83". At first glance, it is a random combination, but it is meaningful.

Pretty hilarious all around, anyone checked if d0g!(!(!(!(!(!( is in the database too?

Hey I'm a math undergrad and this is a question I've been curious about before. Can you link me to some literature on this? Would this fall under discrete and computational geometry? I know there are some well known books in that area

Gated recurrent unit, it has fewer gates than LSTMs usually.

A very weird comparison, the brief history of time is a popular science book aimed at laymen, it sacrifices precision for a larger audience and is not really a dry book.
The coin flip comparison is bad, but I think the article is saying that the precision is very low (like half) but the recall is possibly high. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precision_and_recall
