Sadly, Google is the password cracker's best friend. It can teach the person who
steals that card with the braille password on it all he or she needs to know
about how to read it. Other ways of writing down the password may be used,
including mnemonics, but if a mnemonic is written well enough for me to remember
a random password, chances are it's also good enough for someone else to use to
gain unauthorized access as well. That said, if you can hold the mnemonic you
use to remember a random password in your head without writing it down, and if
the mnemonic is good enough to allow you to enter the password correctly every
time you need it, then a computer generated password is probably best, as the
only point at which you need to worry about compromise is the time between its
generation and your commitment to memory.
