First the goat link, now this. Is HN shifting away from its technology focus? CRISPR is great, but I don't think we're ready to talk about reimplementing lisp on top of a mammalian genome. :)
- exodust 8y agoI'm still waiting for GPS trackers to get small enough for cats to wear comfortably on their collars. It would be fun making an app that did interesting things with that data. I'd be more curious to look at my cat's "fitbit" data than my own. A lot of cat owners would love to check on their cat's roaming data. There, a little tech for you without straying too far from cats, pardon pun.

- exodust 8y agoOnly one cat image on that page and he doesn't look pleased about his collar to be honest. Cats need their agility unobstructed by an anchor around their neck. I'm still waiting for smaller tags. https://www.whistle.com/images/whistle3/testimonials/tomselleck.png https://www.whistle.com/images/whistle3/testimonials/tomsell...
- simplyaccont 8y agoCats in general do not look pleased most of the time. I have this tracker on my cat and two dogs. After a couple of days cat got used to collar, as he never had one before. Tag itself doesn't seem to disturb him, unlike, for example absence of 24/7 food supply and presence dogs that want to play with him.
