Getty Images/CNET Reports of the IRS Direct File's death may not have been exaggerated after all. The agency's free program for filing electronic tax returns may be the latest victim of the Trump administration's DOGE efficiency team, according to reporting by the Associated Press. It cited two anonymous sources familiar with the decision who said staff were told to stop working on the program for the 2026 tax filing season. Rumors of the service's demise began back in February with a social

Jaison R. Abel and Richard Deitz In our last post, we showed that the economic benefits of a college degree still far outweigh the costs for the typical graduate, with a healthy and consistent return of 12 to 13 percent over the past few decades. But there are many circumstances under which college graduates do not earn such a high return. Some colleges are much more expensive than average, and financial aid is not guaranteed no matter which college a student attends. In addition, the potential

13 Apr 2025 This is a story about how I overpaid my 2021 taxes due to an error in TurboTax and spent nearly three years trying to recover more than $12,000 from the IRS! I began writing this back in 2022, in the midst of frustration with TurboTax and the IRS, but waited to finish writing and publish it until I knew the ending. And I’m happy to say that although I had nearly given up hope, I successfully recovered my $12K tax refund, with interest, in 2025! I want to share the story not only bec

Kerry Wan/ZDNET A new PC or Mac is a major purchase. Buying a high-quality device that's built to perform well and last for years can easily cost you $1,500 or more. How much more? Well, Microsoft's most expensive business laptop costs roughly $3,000, and a fully loaded MacBook Pro tops out at a cool $4,000. But you don't have to pay those sticker prices. With a little preparation and some patience, you can save up to 50% off those high price tags without sacrificing quality. That's especially

Recently I had a lot of fun playing with the Prospero Challenge by Matt Keeter. The challenge is to render a 1024x1024 image of a quote from The Tempest by Shakespeare. The input is a mathematical formula with 7866 operations, which is evaluated once per pixel. What made the challenge particularly enticing for me personally was the fact that the formula is basically a trace in SSA-form – a linear sequence of operations, where every variable is assigned exactly once.

Along the way we'll look at the layout of the 32-bit x86 call stack and write assembly in a C program. In C, heap memory is allocated with a call to malloc and deallocated with a call to free .

They are endlessly versatile -- you can schedule lights or fans to turn on and off whenever you want, remotely start your coffee maker in the morning, or turn any outlet into one that now has a switch. They are especially useful for lights that are hard to reach to plug and unplug them, because everything is controlled with an app or voice command.
