This tweet is misleading.
In fact, the time to crack a password using the brute-force method does not obey this primitive table.

Today I learned that natural gas and methane are not the same thing: methane is the principal component of natural gas, at around 80%, but the latter is also made up of ethane and nitrogen gas.

The Fox and the Grapes is one of Aesop's fables, numbered 15 in the Perry Index. The narration is concise and subsequent retellings have often been equally so. The story concerns a fox that tries to eat grapes from a vine but cannot reach them. Rather than admit defeat, he states they are undesirable. The expression "sour grapes" originated from this fable.

That's.... unscientific, isn't it? :?
To know is essentially the same as not knowing. The only thing that occurs is the rearrangement of atoms in your brain.
