    Why? They are no more false than "sd;kfdfs3", and "sd;kfdfs3" is just as false as them when treated as a number. Are you saying I shouldn't use something like "sd;kfdfs3" either?

    $ perl -le' print "s:", "$ARGV[0]" ? "true" : "false"; print "n:", 0+$ARGV[0] ? "true" : "false"; ' 0.0 s:true n:false $ perl -le' print "s:", "$ARGV[0]" ? "true" : "false"; print "n:", 0+$ARGV[0] ? "true" : "false"; ' 'sd;kfdfs3' s:true n:false

    Update: Added code.

      Great. Now I have to go change my password. Again. Thanks, ikegami.

      :-P

      They're not false, and they are very weak passwords.

      That's a combination that will let random people into your account.
