(Joke) I'm kind of surprised that Hacker News readers are into goats! My cousin runs a goat company, and she's not the kind of person who'd read Hacker News. (She rents out her goats to remove problematic vegetation, like poison ivy and invasive vines.) According to Google, "GOAT Blogs" are blogs about goats: https://www.google.com/search?q=GOAT+blog&rlz=1C1GCEU_enUS99... Suggestion (edited): Edit the post just enoug…

This is genius. Goats eat, say, English Ivy leaves, but they obviously don't eat all the roots. English Ivy quickly grows back (even with mere inches of roots). This requires another round of goats. Goats-as-a-service subscription ftw! Next obvious step would be some kind of goat-friendly muzzle on a few of the goats and a $9.99 "turbo" upcharge that unlocks the muzzles. Edit: I think upcharge should instead "unlock…

Goats as a service does exist. Caltrans deloys them to maintain vegetation.

That is a huge list. In what way do you consume this? I would feel overwhelmed following this many blogs. How much value would you say you get from following this many blogs?

I agree - the list is truly impressive. I ran a quick spot-check and it looks like most of these blogs are of medium to low activity. Having 1000 blogs in your RSS reader with an average of 1 article per month per blog results in reading 3 articles per day on average - not bad.

More like 30 articles per day?

About five years ago, I took my kids to a petting zoo with baby animals. I was so struck by how cute baby goats were. I couldn't shake the feeling that I had made fundamentally wrong choices in my life because I didn't have more time with baby goats. This is my current daydream to own goats (because that's probably the best way to get consistent access to baby goats). I was specifically looking at the breed of Nigeri…

My cousin started her goat business about five years ago. It took some time and patience, but now it's successful.

It helps that my cousin is quite the animal lover, went to vet school, and also works part time in a veterinarian's office.

I'm honestly more interested in your cousin's goat farm then the original post of this blog now.

(Humor on Hacker News is hard. I thought if I made two joke posts about goats, at least one would get modded up enough to undo the downvotes from the other.)

i envision an app with geoloc and crosshairs on the cam with a glowy button that makes a satisfying sound. Something like send in the goats

Then deliver them with drones for instant gratification.
