PSA: if you are being offered quick and easy money for bringing a specific object to a specific place, you may be getting recruited as a suicide bomber without your knowledge.
You may know that generally, accepting a job offer of the type, you should expect that you are going to be doing drug drop-offs — a relatively profitable and not an extremely dangerous job, the biggest risk being arrested.
In the last days, in Ukraine, russian secret services started using people looking for easy illegal money as suicide bombers. They paid them to deliver packages containing explosives to a specific location. The packages contained tracking devices that would allow the "employer" to detonate the explosives as soon as the "courier" arrives at the location, guaranteeing that at least 1 person dies in the attack so it makes headlines and that the only person who spoke to the secret agent is dead.
So far the attacks have only happened in Ukraine, but with recent reports about russia increasing the scale of it's spy network activities in the EU, it's safe to assume that EU citizens will start recieving "job offers" via WhatsApp, Telegram and other messengers or even social media or phone calls soon.

Evo 2, developed by the Arc Institute in collaboration with NVIDIA and researchers from Stanford University, UC Berkeley, and UC San Francisco, is the largest AI model for biology to date. Trained on over 9.3 trillion nucleotides from more than 128,000 genomes across all domains of life, Evo 2 can identify patterns in gene sequences and predict disease-causing mutations with high accuracy. It also has the capability to design new genomes, potentially accelerating disease research and treatment development.
