🐶 Dogs May Use Blinking as a Social Signal
Scientists have found that dogs blink more often when they see people blinking, especially their owners.
However, they do not simply copy human blinking: dogs were not necessarily more likely to blink immediately after a person did.
Researchers believe this reaction may reflect increased attention and social interaction, suggesting that blinking could be part of dogs' nonverbal communication with humans.

📱 Developer Uses Shock Collar to Stop Doomscrolling
Liam Kloppers tested an electric shock collar as a radical way to combat doomscrolling. He connected the device to an app that delivered a shock when he opened his social media blacklist.
Even the weak pulse was so intense that Kloppers almost threw his phone at the wall.
"I was now too scared to use my phone. I was also too scared to keep using the collar," he says.So, he decided to replace the shock with an irritating high-pitched beep. How do you feel about this approach? 🔥 — I'd try it myself 🤯 — Too extreme!

👨💻 AI Creates New Jobs
AI adoption has led to new jobs at 54% of UK companies, according to a Lloyds survey that included businesses ranging from small companies to multinational corporations.
The findings offer a different perspective on the common fear that AI will put people out of work. A King's College London study found that 69% of workers are worried about losing their jobs due to AI, and 57% of Britons believe the technology will eliminate more jobs than it creates.
But the bigger shift may be less about mass layoffs and more about the job market changing: some roles are disappearing, while new ones are emerging.
💼 Companies increasingly see AI adoption as essential to staying competitive. Six in 10 businesses surveyed by Lloyds said they risk falling behind if they fail to embrace new technologies. And to help employees adapt, 58% of employers plan to invest in workforce training over the next year.
Is AI a threat to your job?
❤️ — I'm irreplaceable!
🤔 — I'll need to learn some new skills
🔥 — Soon we'll all be out of work...

Is such a mode necessary?

💰 Anthropic Could Go Public at a Valuation of More Than $2 Trillion
Anthropic investors expect the company to go public in October at a valuation of $2 trillion or more. For comparison, SpaceX was valued at $1.77 trillion when it went public. If that forecast holds, Anthropic would set a new record.
Investors are betting on rapid business growth. They expect Anthropiс's annualized revenue to reach $100-120 billion by the end of 2026-more than tenfold from the start of the year.
Anthropic has already filed for an IPO but has not yet announced the offering price or size.
Do you think this valuation is realistic?
❤️ — Yes, the growth justifies it
🔥 — No, the AI market is overheated

🦇 Batman Makes People More Polite, Study Finds
A 2025 experiment found people behave better when a superhero is nearby.
A "pregnant" actress boarded a subway car. Normally, about 38% of passengers offered her a seat. But when a "hero" in a Batman costume boarded alongside her, that number nearly doubled to 67%.
Oddly, 44% of those who gave up their seat in the Batman group said they never even noticed him. Researchers believe this points to a hidden "spillover" effect of attention in crowded public spaces.
Do you give up your seat on public transport?
❤️ — Yes, always!
👀 — No, I need Batman...
