QR Codes Are Kind of Brilliant

That little square you scan at restaurants, stores and airports looks like random black-and-white noise. It isn't. A QR code stores information in a pattern that cameras can read extremely quickly. And because it includes error correction, it can still work even when part of the code is damaged or covered. That's why you can sometimes scan a QR code that looks absolutely terrible.

Why Does Your Phone Get Slow Over Time?

It’s not always because your phone is “old.” Storage getting crowded, background processes, software updates, battery condition and apps getting more demanding can all play a part. That expensive phone you bought three years ago hasn't suddenly forgotten how to work. The digital world around it has simply gotten heavier.
