Friday fun: Cats, Cops, and Computers

leave a comment »

I just love this YouTube video of the (mostly) patient cop dealing with a overly friendly kitten while writing a speeding ticket.  By the way, there isn’t any sound with this dashcam video:

You can read more about the story behind this video in this KOMOnews.com posting, and check out this video of the cat and his owner (err.. human):

Some people think cats are brainless, but as this posting points out even a super computer with 147,456 processors and 144 terabytes of memory still runs 100 times slower than an cat’s brain.  So next time you see a kitten or cat doing something “brainless” just remember there’s a exaflop processor with over 14 petabytes of memory behind those wiskers.

Have a great weekend ~ Jim
