  If only companies could be executed.

  Did you know they used to not be immortal by default? Like old companies had to definite like a shutdown date in their articles of incorporation.

  Now they have human rights, are immortal, and use the planet like its a computer and they are a poorly written piece of malware.

  Hint: Its gonna keep looping till it overheats and crashes. Might need to unplug it and plug it back in again.

  No, we know where we are getting fucked from: behind usually, sometimes ontop so they can choke us, and the rest is always on our knees.

  23andMe

  I never met a Geneticist who couldn’t immediately recognize this company as a scam. The product wasn’t the papers they send you after doing random marker tests once (so, false positives exist, and they never cared). The product is the DNA they collected by convincing people that their test was even remotely useful or insightful.

  Its entirely based on correlation; and correlation to what? Geographic area? That makes no sense if you know one of any number of fields and many don’t even have to be scientific in nature, or genetics.

  I have always hated them, always told people to never use them and get themselves a proper 50x full genome sequencing since it costed the same; and actually provides real, resolute and reliable data. Not just like borderline pseudoscience. Might as well sent in the shape of your skull.

  Well its also their fault for falling for 23andMe because its basically a scam. The data is originally self-selected data sets then correlating a few markers tested once, to match you to their arbitrary groups, isn’t exactly how genetics work is done.

  Its actually cheap as, maybe cheaper to get 50x full genome sequencing from a company that actually doesn’t sell your data; where 23andMe business model was running a few marker tests to appease their audience they kept in the dark of how modern genetics works; then keep the same for full genome sequencing later because that shit only gets more valuable over time.

  Its what makes genetics weird. A sample taken 10 years ago, will reveal so much more about you 5 years from now, like massively more.
