Requiring mixed-up characters to be used in passwords can actually make them less secure. NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) removed all complexity rules from their guidelines for this reason. Making passwords longer is much more important for security. https://auth0.com/blog/dont-pass-on-the-new-nist-password-guidelines/

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1703735619648930244

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
