#4For some reason, I'm on all the different things posted here, this makes me want to get into robotics. I've been thinking about ordering a raspberrypi, or a MicroPython board, etc., but something holds me back. Maybe the fear of getting into something that I won't have time for.

For bonus points, feed the score of each imgur/reddit post back into the Kittydar neural net that is doing cat facial detection so that it learns to snap photos that yield maximum karma.

#9I know a couple shelters that would love cat/dog facial recognition that was able to identify the animal based on it's face.
This project isn't that, but it's still pretty cool.

#10I'm reminded of this DIY cat door that used pattern recognition to prevent the owner's cats from bringing dead animals into the house.
