I don’t think this is the correct comparison. The iphone doesn’t just die after 5 years. I still have a 10 year iPhone 6 and a 8 years old iPhone 7 both still working just fine. Apple stopped releasing OS upgrades with…
I requested deletion of all my data to 23andme, but they said they keep “Genetic Information”. Does that mean 23andme still has my “SNPs”? (I’m based in Europe) Message I received by email: > 23andMe and the contracted…

Why do you think you need to achieve 4 or 5? Or even 3? Salary in tech are so high that even with a mediocre bonus, it’s still a good life. For the last two years, I aimed for just meet expectations. Easy job, no…
This varies a lot depending on where you live and your routine. If you’re middle class, lives in a nice neighbourhood and go out into posh areas, the risk is really really low. This is why this Tinder scam is extra…
