Wi-Fi connected home security cameras have largely taken over the baby monitor market, but nobody would blame you for feeling anxious about streaming a live video feed of your baby to the cloud. If you’d prefer to keep things local, Anker’s new Eufy SpaceView is a great all-in-one solution for just $126 (down from the…

There are still many types of wonderful apples at my local grocery store, but there are fewer than there were the week before, and even fewer than there were a month ago. Apple season is drawing to a close, friends, but you can make it last a bit longer—or make a mediocre out-of-season apple taste outstanding—with a…

In 2019, we’re bringing back monthly financial challenges on Two Cents (you can see 2017's version here). Each is meant to help us focus on a different aspect of our money, and, ideally, develop small changes into measurable differences in our financial lives.

After ten years of working in big city emergency departments and ICUs, I traded night shifts and fast-paced intensity for a new challenge: school nursing. Because my children were in elementary school and night shifts no longer worked for our family, I figured handing out Band-Aids and ice packs would be a welcome…

One of the things I like to do every now and then—especially around this time of year—is to start fresh. I’ll think about all the services I’ve signed up for and don’t actually use. Going through and deleting them helps me feel better about my digital sprawl, and it’s a practice I recommend everyone try regularly.

Recently, we asked you about your work mouse recommendations. So, it seems only natural we follow up with the keyboard. You all have opinions, I’m sure. Put those fingers to good use and let us know your favorite.

You’ve got this weird pain in your upper back, more like a zap than a twinge, but only on your left side. Also your eye won’t stop twitching. And there’s a weird rash on your leg that’s not going away. Are you dying?!

You’ve probably already downloaded Duolingo before your next big international trip, but there are two important words to know before going to any foreign-speaking land.

Unless your goal is to make a crepe, a flat pancake is a sad pancake. The ideal flapjack is tall and fluffy, and the secret to raising them to glorious heights is to do less. (By “do less,” I mean “don’t mix so much.”)

Every day after school, it’s the same scene in my house: My son asks for a snack, I offer up an idea (usually starting with what he chose yesterday or the day before), which he promptly turns down. He might come back to it a few minutes later, after I’ve exhausted all other possibilities, but he never says yes to the…

If you’re a visual creative, you need to be on Behance. The professional social platform lets artists, designers, and other creators share their work in high resolution and build a shareable portfolio. We talked to Behance founder Scott Belsky, now Adobe’s Chief Product Officer, about his work, his personal shortcuts,…

You may have heard that over the weekend newly minted Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said in an interview with 60 Minutes that there’s precedent for wealthy Americans at the “tippy tops”—in this case, those earning over $10 million—to pay a marginal tax rate “as high as 60 percent or 70 percent.”

If the latest report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change was a jolting wake-up call, you may be wondering what else you can do to slow climate change. You’ve voted for people you knew would care about climate change, divested from companies that are making the situation worse, and replaced all your…

When someone says “in this movie, the city is like another character,” they usually don’t mean Anchorman. This week Hack Your City goes to San Diego, a city that sure sounds comfortable right now. Look at their average monthly temperatures—my apartment has a more volatile climate. OK, what’s your best advice for…

Lacking any kind of networking, let alone Wi-Fi or AirPrint, this Brother printer is the barest of the barebones. But what it does do is print black and white pages extremely well, and extremely quickly (27 ppm!), with none of the carriage jams or dried out ink cartridges of inkjet printers that have drive us all…

Our family’s Thanksgiving is huge. After everyone is done eating, we’re typically searching for some sort of “activity” that both the kids and the older folks can enjoy, which for the past few years has involved a spirited game of Pictionary.
