Is it safe to permission set 777 for var?

Question

I saw 'Never use 777 for security reason' and I also found Magento 2 recommended permission setup on Magento 2 folder/file permissions

find ./var -type d -exec chmod 777 {} \;
find ./pub/media -type d -exec chmod 777 {} \;
find ./pub/static -type d -exec chmod 777 {} \;

Is it safe to use 777 for those and why?

I don't think this is recommended?

Where did you find this?

That's the problem with the internet, don't believe everything with lots of upvotes.
