alt Hacker NewsI've seen a few sites where the login flow is simply entering your email address and you get a time-limited login link sent to you. You never create any password at all. I was skeptical at first but I've found it seems to work pretty decently.

This could not be a more picture perfect example of a Wirth-suboptimal engeneering decision as per the article if it were designed for that. The amount of slowdown to run to the emails, wait for reception, open, copy, paste instead of using the sensible flow of password manager integration is huge. But people will use wasteful processes if they just don't need to change them, so what are you gonna do?
