If you haven’t yet seen Saturday Night Live’s “Duolingo for Talking to Children” sketch, we highly recommend it. It’s funny because it’s true: Talking to kids can be surprisingly intimidating.

We’ve all heard the best things in life are free, but when it comes to your investments, is “free” a good thing? Recent changes announced by investment firms may have you confused about how you’re supposed to manage your nest egg.

Just last month, we wrote about a couple that was swindled out of nearly $12,000 on Airbnb because of a phony listing. But according to a report by senior staff writer Allie Conti for Vice—who fell victim to a scam played on Airbnb users in several major cities—scammers on the platform are becoming a hell of a lot…

iOS/Android: Junk mail is a human misery, a failure of capitalism, a way to lose an important bill in a stack of trash. To stop getting so much junk mail, use the PaperKarma app. Take a picture of the offending mail, and PaperKarma will tell the sender to remove you from their mailing list.

I’m going to go ahead and pat myself on the back for setting up a Google Alert for the words “Qnap” and “malware.” I use one of the company’s NAS boxes, as do many others, and now I have a chance to inoculate my device against a nasty new strain of malware that’s making the rounds.

I’m a reluctant morning exerciser. I hate waking up at 6, but my day goes better when I get my workout in early. This week is a special week, then, for folks like me (and commenter Sailor Jupiter, who thinks like I do). The time change has gifted us with an extra morning hour. Waking up, the hardest task of the day, …
