Don't reveal your powerlevel in HN, dude. Now you've not only reduced the search space for your Hotmail password, yoy've clued an attacker in that that's also your Gmail password!
I use Pass [0] to generate unique/random passwords for each site I sign into, I don't use the same password for all sites. I was just describing what I used for this instance (only characters and numbers), not what I do every time. I appreciate your concern though!
