Dog’s first toy
This dog was rescued from an abusive home, and now he gets to pick his first toy for his new home! It looks like he’s taking the decision very seriously!

Check out this tiny robot they made at MIT! They call it an origami robot, because it folds and unfolds by itself. Someone can swallow one and they can control it from outside with magnets. It can do some small kinds of surgery without any cutting.

Check out this robot butler at a hotel delivering some stuff. How long until The Matrix is real?

Check out this GIF of some robotic fish. This has to be the most lifelike robot I’ve ever seen. I wouldn’t mind having some of these guys as pets. I’m sure they’re lower maintenance than the real thing.

I learned something really interesting about dogs today. Some scientists did some MRI scans on dogs to see how their brains responded to human voices. Apparently, the dogs’ brains responded to the voices in a similar way to humans’ brains. The scientists think that because dogs have lived alongside humans for so long, they have evolved to understand human emotions like happiness and sadness by listening to their voices. Here’s the full article if you’re interested, but it has a lot of scientific words in it:
English note:
“Dogs can tell when you’re laughing” means: dogs understand when you’re laughing.
Example:
Can you tell where he is from? (by hearing his accent)
Can you tell which way is north? (by looking at the sun)
I can tell he doesn’t like spicy food. (by looking at his face)
My mom can tell when I’m lying. (by looking at my face)

Here’s the top post from another one of my favorite subreddits called Instant Regret. This guy tries to get past a puddle without getting his shoes too wet.

It’s so funny how such a big dog is so scared of this little kitten. Some dogs are really nice to smaller cats and dogs or little kids. This dog seems like a total sweetheart.

Someone made a gif of Japanese workers doing impressive things. I think for Americans, it’s really impressive to see stuff like this because we never see it in the U.S.

I read about how the president of Nintendo cut his own salary in half after the company’s sales figures went down. It really stuck out in my mind because in the U.S., there are so many stories of companies firing workers to save money while the executives get paid millions. There’s such a big contrast. I wish more companies would be like Nintendo.
