Sequoia Capital is funding open-source software developers through an equity-free fellowship program. Finally, someone is helping those developers who have to fit their passion projects between paying jobs. I wonder if they can fund my "world's best dad jokes" project? I could use the support.
Genetic testing company 23andMe experienced a major data breach, with hackers gaining access to the DNA data of nearly 7 million users.
