I never pictured @ChrisTurk as athletic and hairy?

Got my compensation hit for $5 today. I'm out! Peace!

 

wow that is a lot more specific than I would have thought. also you have nice hair.

also damn

 

The coolest thing is you can download the raw data & run it against better DBs that give you all the health info 23&me can't (..and probs shouldn't lol)

Turns out I have a gene that is the highest risk of Alzheimer's development SAD (but also super fking cool to know LOL)

 

would you like some of mine

 

maybe that is another way of saying you will live to a really old age. I wouldn't want the "likely to get hit by a bus" gene.

also damn

 

Everybody dies of something lol. For me I legitimately wanted to know what the #s looked like

also I regret everything



like damn can y'all imagine there was a time in human history where you just had to continue RNG'ing until a dinosaur ate you or some shit and now you can find out if your brain is going to eventually melt into useless mush for like $100?

Alzheimer's: Is it in your genes? - Mayo Clinic

"But not everyone who has one or even two APOE e4 genes develops Alzheimer's disease. And the disease occurs in many people who don't even have an APOE e4 gene, suggesting that the APOE e4 gene affects risk but is not a cause. Other genetic and environmental factors likely are involved in the development of Alzheimer's disease."

"Before being tested, it's important to weigh the emotional consequences of having that information. The results may affect your eligibility for certain forms of insurance, such as disability, long-term care and life insurance."

I hadn't thought about quote #2...the internet doesn't need to have info like that so easily found to charge different rates to different people...also I swore so you should delete this entire conversation for that reason.

also damn

 

holy crap OK now I understand why they don't give you this information normally, my dumb ass doesn't understand how to do a lookup table and it turns out my brain genes are normal.. I think.. honestly paying the extra $10 to get another site to just generate this for me seems like a good idea rn

 

I think it's kinda up to the person.. the vast majority of these things should have the asterisk that even a 100x incident rate is still like a 1/1,000,000 chance of actually impacting your life so I don't particularly care about the results outside the curiosity factor.

 

I made nearly 70 cents!

 

can I have a beer? @ChrisTurk too.
