Lesson from LastPass hack and iOS keychain flaw: keep passwords on paper in wallet.

Lesson from #3’s iPhone mess: it’s not a good idea to have every major part of a system be unreliable. Old abused hardware (multi-dropped 4S), buggy OS (iOS 8, esp Message bug), marginal carrier (H2O). Too likely all will go wrong at once.

I had only 1 pw in LastPass; one of my iCloud pws. Post-hack decided to change it. Reminded that 1Password wifi sync rots, and changing an iCloud pw is rather painful. Never change it.

LastPass hacked. “email addresses and password reminders, was compromised.” Not pw they say.

Webkit OAUTH 2 problem – one some systems, including mine, javascript is disabled. Uncommon, but exists. Explicitly enabling javascript in webkit code fixes problem. Mystery remains — why disabled in the first place?

Sleep studies (apnea) have always been a pain, but insurance companies have made much worse. So patients and some physicians are doing at home with $35 Amazon oximeters and Windows. If apnea found, easy to get insurance company to do sleep study.
