"Hi guys! I was contacted via a recruiter on linkedin for web3 dev work. They suggested I clone their repo and run the project. I did and after I got several alerts from chrome asking me to open my unlock my browser keys. I denied those requests and killed the local instance of the app. Was this an attack? No funds were moved and I didn't connect my metamask to the app."

"The expected rate of return[ing a wallet] was 23% and the actual return was over 80%.[38] In the same vein, the 40-country study showed actual return to be much higher than expected (1.8 times). Finally, two-thirds of 200 wallets dropped in 20 North American cities were returned, [...] double that expected by US respondents to the wallet stranger question in our 2019 data.[40] Collectively, these data on expected and actual wallet return show that people are far too pessimistic about the benevolence of others."
"wallets were returned 40% of the time when they [contained] no money, and over half (51%) the time when they contained money"

Visual cleaning
Scrubdaddy (just visual cleaning) different results depending on type of dirt. Careful on painted walls https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tcXIp-PC9Ss
Bacteria tests
General cleaning of items:
- Surfaces soaked in bleach removes 100% in most cases but not all (might be measurement randomness) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7R6V2BJWHA
- Wiping the bleach off immediately after spraying is often the same result but not always as good, e.g. on toilet rim https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XFal225hSzs
- Dishsoap seems hit and miss for different surfaces, not too sure what to make of it. It's really good on the kitchen counter and kitchen sink drain, but then does little for the bathroom sink or toilet rim. Wonder if that's reproducible https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3gZlmapLkk
- Shower curtains can be washed in the washing machine instead of buying new https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HhOhG38Yvtk
- Cutting boards, wood and plastic, when new, get clean quite easily including in the dishwasher for the plastic one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1lEoq5CPfYE
Laundry:
- Vinegar doesn't fully remove bacteria in laundry https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v4ey1A5a-WA
- Bleach does in a small quantity when soaking for more than 10 minutes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=npWP4h1jRjU
- Drying cloths in the dryer and in the sun both reduces bacterial growth quite a bit, with the sun the slightly better option https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MioFTSuBQHA
Cleaning cleaning utilities:
- Sponges don't get fully clean from soaking in vinegar, microwaving for 1min, or running it through the dishwasher. Under realistic-seeming conditions, the dishwasher run and vinegar soak seem like good options. Perhaps repeat or combine the procedures every once in a while if you use a sponge for a long time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-r-C4GEliY
- Handwashing: 5 seconds with any soap seems fine for general purpose, but notice that she only dirtied and measured the palm. So probably each part of the hand deserves 5 seconds or more. Just water wasn't enough https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_90K9XIbYEQ
- Shower- and hand towels:
- Shower towel is okay for a week, maybe because it dries fully on between, maybe because of something else
- Hand towels you can basically replace daily and still find colonies https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4NWxU5RIUnI
Other:
- Toilet lid up/down while flushing does not seem to make a difference in terms of anything viable reaching the walls https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RVmbNQ18Vho
