The IRS is sending letters to more than 10,000 taxpayers with virtual currency transactions, telling them to pay back taxes and file amended returns. So much for 'sticking it to the man' with bitcoin
I wonder if they can claim capital losses on the alternate days when it tanks?

Might only be 65 of those businesses reporting cyber attacks, the other 1% of those small businesses are the cyber attackers. Its good work if you can get it.

34% of SMBs ask what a cyberattack is and if it's related to the intertubes thing.

Programming language popularity is always an interesting exercise in reading tea leaves, but SlashData took things a step further in their latest report. In addition to gauging the world’s total developer population, the organization also attempted to decipher how many developers are actually using specific languages. How many developers are there? Let's count off: one

Quote: Unsurprisingly, JavaScript is most popular.
I think this would be better phrased as "Unsurprisingly, JavaScript is most widely used. Seems more accurate. We don't really know what developers think about a language, which would reflect it's popularity. Hence, usage != popularity necessarily.

The “sensitivity” conjecture stumped many top computer scientists, yet the new proof is so simple that one researcher summed it up in a single tweet. Caution: do not read if you're sensitive about Booleans
Or perhaps that's the main reason why you should?

From the article: points on cubes of different dimensions. There’s a natural way to go from a string of n 0s and 1s to a point on an n-dimensional cube: Simply use the n bits as the coordinates of the point.
I can understand why a lot of people would be put off, at this point, but, for a nutter like me, it just increases the appetite.Later in the article: in any collection of more than half the points in an n-dimensional cube, there will be some point that is connected to at least n−−√ of the other points — and the sensitivity conjecture instantly followed from this result
Hu-Aah!
It's bleeding obvious, when you think about it.

Every now and then, you read something and then suddenly realize it's all bullshit made to sound intellectual. Proposing A solution does not mean it is THE solution. Whatever state has the highest count wins, tie goes to 1. There, solved it in even less space.

Snyk has already performed thousands of scans for .NET projects since releasing support for the ecosystem in 2017. We can now describe a composite average project, to give our users an idea of what they might find when they try to scan one of their .NET projects. In case security is useful to you
Yes, mostly an advert for their product/service, but it's got purty charts. Me likie!

This post gets C# developers started building applications with TypeScript, which allows static typing combined with the enormous ecosystem of JavaScript. All the semi-colons and braces you love, without giving up flavour! (or data types)
Because someone may ask you to work on the web, and you might hurt yourself on the JavaScript.
