I wish everyone a happy and healthy start into the #NewYear 2026. In my New Year's Eve post, I here report on aspects of #dog #behaviors and its relationships to humans. #Herding #dogs, for example, have the specific ability to #communicate not only with #humans but also with their grazing #livestock. H. Jeong et al. (2025) addressed the "#Genomicevidence for behavioral adaptation of herding dogs" in their study.

Oh, joy! Another AI-driven attempt at #herding the cats of Hacker News into a neat little package of summaries and heatmaps, because clearly that's what the #tech world was missing 🙄. Let's add contrarian picks to ensure everyone is equally unimpressed by this digital navel gazing 🤦‍♂️.

(13) Herding Cows with Kulning – YouTube

Using the ancient Nordic herding call “kulning” to herd the cows. Kulning is a high pitch voice technique that creates a sound that can travel through very far distances. It’s been used since the medieval age to call home the cows and the goats in the forest, and also to scare away predators like wolves and bears. #sweden #kulning #herdingcall #herding #nordicmusic

Tech layoffs seem entirely driven by herding behavior at this point, right? Layoffs happen, the stock price goes up, other company boards ask why they aren't doing the same and it's rinse and repeat. And they're crippling their businesses in the process, right?
