There are many ways to profit if crypto markets crash.  Shutterstock Recently, a range of analysts have weighed in on whether cryptocurrencies are in a bubble. There is certainly cause for concern,  as the total market capitalization (market cap) of these digital assets has  surged  from less than $18 billion to  nearly $180 billion this year, according to  CoinMarketCap .  However, these currencies have been suffering some  weakness  lately, as many have dropped significantly from their peaks.

03/16/2015 Christopher Soghoian There seems to be a new data breach in the news every week — a major company hacked, millions of usernames, passwords or credit card numbers stolen. There isn’t much that you, as an individual, can do to stop hackers from stealing the data you entrust to companies. However, there are some easy things you can do to significantly reduce the harm from such breaches. Outsource your passwords to a robot The human brain can only remember so many passwords, not to mention we’re actually really bad at picking good ones. So, too often we just reuse passwords across multiple sites. This is a Very Bad Idea. Once hackers break into a website and steal a database of email addresses and passwords, they can then try to use those same passwords to login to other sites. This is a huge problem, because so many of us use the same password for our Facebook, Google, Twitter and online banking accounts. The solution instead is to use a password ...

By   GILLIAN WONG An exhibitor displays a 3D face-capture system at the 17th China Beijing International High-Tech Expo (CHITEC) in May.   Zuma Press On several fronts, 2014 was a particularly eventful year for China’s technology sector. While a handful of domestic players grabbed headlines with blockbuster share offerings, major acquisitions or soaring valuations, some multinational firms encountered major obstacles in their efforts to expand in the vast but increasingly challenging market. Chief among 2014’s Chinese tech highlights was e-commerce giant Alibaba’s  record initial public offering  in New York that raised $25 billion and catapulted it onto the international stage. Also raising eyebrows was Lenovo, the No. 1 personal computer maker, with its sizable acquisitions: first a  server business from IBM  for $2.3 billion, then  Motorola Mobility from Google for $2.91 billion . It was also a year that saw Xiaomi, a four-year-old sm...

April 27, 2013   by   Joe Martino A palliative nurse recorded the most common regrets of the dying and put her findings into a book called ‘The Top Five Regrets of The Dying.’ It’s not surprising to see what made the list as they are all things that touch each of our lives as we struggle to pay attention to and make time for things that we truly love. Below is the list of each regret along with an excerpt from the book.  At the bottom is also a link to the book for anyone interested in checking it out. One thing on regret before we get to the list. It’s important to remember that whatever stage we are at in life, there is no need for regret. The process of regret is one that provides nothing but suffering for ourselves as we begin to allow the past to dictate how we should feel now. Instead, we can use the past as a reference point to understand what adjustments we would like to make moving forward. The adjustments do not have to come out of pain, sorrow,...

John Paul Titlow   March 11th, 2013 The nerds are so excited. Our Internet-augmented, face-computer-wearing future is just over the horizon. Leading us there will be Google Glass, the first iteration of this particular sort of wearable, semi-immersive computing experience. If the product is successful, it will merely be the beginning.   The anticipation is understandable. If having Internet-connected computers in our pockets can transform our world, just imagine what wearing them on our faces will do. The prospect of  everything from augmented reality games to futuristic surgery  has people pumped for the days head. It's all very cool, but there's another side to Google Glass:  the creepy factor .  See Also:  10 Compelling Ways People Plan To Use Google Glass For every exciting use case, it seems there's at least one social or policy-related concern. How will this impact privacy? Will we even have privacy in the future? When will we overco...
