Funny how there is a post-it with a password glued to the screen of the computer in the lede image, now in plain sight for thousands of readers.

Looks like there's a year at the end; might be to facilitate suckurity requirements such as yearly password rotation.

I keep a list of every time I change one of my work passwords with the date it would have expired, and it seems to fluctuate between 2.5 and 3.5 months with little consistency. Some of us used to have it locked so we didn't need to keep changing it, but they reenabled it some time ago and we got confirmation it was for some sort of external security requirements.
