A man walks into a bar and asks the bartender for the WiFi password.
The bar tender replies "You have to buy a drink first"
So the man buys a beer.
"Ok, so now what's the WiFi password?"
The bartender replies "'You have to buy a drink first', all lower case, no spaces."

Sorry to all Germans ...

You could make a TikTok video of your presentation.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

Show up with a brick, and tell them if they're serious about security, that's the phone they should be carrying.

When I read my email I always look first for "Daily News - ..." but this latest Codeproject email is missing the words "Daily News".

... as a standard step in their problem analysis tree. Useless to solve the problem, BUT now have to search for all settings and all passwords for all my websites
She was to quick for me to prevent it. I hate remote support.

The only secure password is one you can't remember.
Seriously, why aren't you using a password manager? Every half-decent browser has one built-in these days, and there are plenty of options if you need one that works across different browsers or devices.
Clearing the browser cache won't affect the passwords stored in the password manager.

OK, I remembered it without having to look it up in my password manager., to be more specific.
The password manager in the browser are disabled at work, for security reasons (nah).

It is worse than you may think. It is one of those who think they can, but actually cannot.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

They're not entirely wrong.
Look at the current LastPass fiasco. Very reputable company/product/service, until "that" happened. Sooner or later it happens to all of 'em.
My passwords are staying offline, and certainly are NOT auto-syncing across devices.

The only place I keep my passwords is between my ears. If I lose my head, I certainly won't need my passwords anymore.

Then:
a) you're not managing many passwords
b) you're re-using them in multiple locations
c) they're not very complex
d) you have impossibly great memory
I'd love to say you have the best solution, but reality dictates this is impractical.

slightly disagree, there are methods to generation of passwords that would enable most of the passwords to be different and yet easily remembered by a human yet fairly difficult to guess or deconstruct.
I can almost always type in my password to various sites on the first time almost everytime for each site.
There are exceptions and in those. The reset/email me the password option works wonderfully.

Yes, there are methods to create long/complex passwords that you can remember (or work out in your head), but that doesn't scale, in the sense that if you have to have dozens of them, you won't remember them, unless there's some repetition or a pattern.

I use a "generating function" for passwords, so all I really need to remember is the function. This may not be as hard to guess as a 16-character random string, but is good enough for any practical purpose.
For that matter, the only accounts that require high security are the financial and medical accounts. If someone were (for example) to break into my Code Project account, what real damage would be done to me?
