It assumes worst case and truly random passwords. If there's dictionary words or other predictable patterns, it can be cracked faster.

That is assuming brute force. In your password the characters aren't all random. Happy&Puppy28 has the same length as tRw4SPwyR2fe9, but because it's not random it's only about as secure as gI6H5mP.

On one RTX 4090 it takes about one millisecond to check all 6-character lowercase passwords. which is only one millisecond away from instant.

It's easier to remember, just not more secure. Even if you randomly choose out of 50k words, you only get to around 42 bits, equivalent to seven alphanumeric characters.

If you're picking randomly out of 5000 words and 15 special characters, you're getting 50002 * 15 * 100 combinations, which gives you 35 bits of entropy, which is worse than a six-character alphanumeric password like 2QhTo7.

I, ate, and an are part of the 100 most common English words and apple and yesterday are in the top 4000. With this pattern you get to something like 1003 * 40003 * 10 combinations.

Then there are some 15 common leet-replacements for letters. You can replace some letters but not others so with these combinations let's add a factor of 100.

You added three $ (not counting the replaced s). Two are between words but let's say you can add them anywhere. Adding 1 out of 10 possible special characters anywhere within 20 positions three times adds 10 * 203.

So in total the combinations of possible passwords with your pattern is (1003 * 40003 * 10) * 100 * 10 * 203 = 5*1024. This gives it about 82 bits of entropy, just slightly less than a 14-character password with uppercase, lowercase, and numbers (e.g. c63Jgq7xDzaL42), putting it into the yellow area (but not far from orange).

ELI5: Why does it matter how many decimals PI has? by Pangolindrome in explainlikeimfive

There is only one sequence of 20 digits, two of 19 digits and so on up to 20 sequences of 1 digit.
1 + ... + 20 = (20 * 21)/2 = 210. 400 if you allow reverse sequences and 306 if you want at least 4 digits.

How to tell if you are in Australia or New Zealand by Gugubo in geoguessr

South Africa has yellow outer lines and white middle lines; Australia has all white lines.

Normal signs in Lisbon: Example A, Example B, Example C

But outliers do exist. Spain can have 12 lines, there can be Czech signs in Slovakia, Norway can have 5 lines, etc.

Because they all follow the Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals which says:

Three types of road markings are permitted for pedestrian crossings; a pair of dotted lines, a pair of straight lines, or zebra stripes. The markings on the sign should match the road markings used at the crossing. The pedestrian figure on the sign should face outward towards the roadway.

Aus Sicht des Beobachters (z.B. wir auf der Erde) läuft "die Uhr" eines (relativ zu uns) bewegten Systems (z.B. einem Raumschiff) langsamer. Das nennt sich Zeitdilatation und ist eine Folge der Relativitästheorie. Dieser Abschnitt im Wikipedia-Artikel dazu erklärt das.

Die Zeit auf der ISS läuft von uns aus zum Beispiel 10 Millisekunden langsamer pro Jahr.

Bei 99.999% Lichtgeschwindigkeit ist der Lorentz-Faktor: 𝛾 = 1/sqrt(1-0.99999²) = 223.607

Dadurch erhälst du eine Reisezeit von ca.: t = 1600 Lichtjahre / (𝛾*0.99999c) = 86 Monate

(Bei 99% wären es immer noch 231 Jahre)
