“...Turing Award (the equivalent of a Nobel Prize in computer science)...”
Given the completely besmirched reputation of the word “Nobel”, ‘twould be better for the Nobel prizes actually requiring intellect and achievement (physics, medicine, etc) to be renamed. The peace and literature prizes have reduced the reputation of the present name to the equivalent of “Yugo” in the automotive world.
Slightly off topic, see tagline...

Meta questions for authentication have been used for years. One of the prime problems with passwords is currently requiring passwords that cannot be remembered, even with “security” hints. More than seven letters, upper and lower case, with a number and a symbol...If it is a password that is used infrequently or lost good luck! Writing them down is becoming a necessity, violating the physical security of the password in favor of the electronic security.
This is interesting stuff.
