Yup.
According to the rules laid down in the article, you're safe to keep using it.

I was commenting more along the lines of: There is no rule mentioned about posting your passwords on message boards.

A problem with his minimum length only "rule" is that once every site, system, etc adopts that then all the hacked passwords will be at least that long. Then his "only need to check this tiny list of hacked passwords with length greater than 10" won't be so tiny any longer.
A false sense of security.

I agree.
If you have rules, the hackers know them, and that means their job is easier.

And nothing in the article or in the comments (or at least in as many of the comments that I read) mention passwords with short expiration dates. The worst are those that last 30 days. This instantly means that they are monthly and the easiest way of dealing with them is some algorithm that includes the month in its contents, e.g. P201703£ for March 2017, P201704$ for April 2017 (Using Shift-lastCharInMonth as the special char). [My actual algorithm for my 30-day expiring passwords is (slightly) more complex than this one and has been used successfully for 19 years!]

Try to explain about an algorithm to the secretary, the salesman or other non-tech positions in a company. Password rules end with a password that they can not remember and write down to a post it on the monitor or in the top drawer

Malicious apps were surreptitiously added somewhere along the supply chain. Why waste time and hack them after they leave the factory?

Having begun my time here covering the late 1990s email/collaboration battles between Lotus Notes/Domino, Microsoft Outlook/Exchange, and, yes, Novell GroupWise, it’s interesting to see IBM, which bought Lotus in 1995, pledging to support Domino and Notes for, well, an open-ended long period of time. Because the good die young

The broader .NET community is porting .NET Core to various Internet of Things (IoT) platforms, including Raspberry Pi 2 and 3. Silly people, raspberries don't have cores, they're drupes

But if they ported Swift to it first, it'd have an apple core.

Well, given this and the other news article a few posts down, it seems that my article on Merkle trees that should be ready for posting by Monday will be quite relevant.

Researchers say tens of thousands of sites are using JavaScript libraries that are years old and contain publicly known vulnerabilities. "Other kings said I was daft to build a castle on a swamp, but I built it all the same, just to show 'em!"

Sadly, the article doesn't say that js is unsafe, but that old js is unsafe -- and you can say that about just about anything (or anyone)(me in particular, if you call me old!)

Playable Ads are a completely new way for end users to interact with ads and apps. With this capability, end users never leave the current app. Oh, it's just what I've always wanted. How thoughtful of a gift.
