Find my cat: open-source Cat Tracker

Sad that a vitriolic rant with zero technical discussion is the top post. This is hacker news, not whinging news.

I think the design is too big and the battery life too uncompelling but open source means better luck at being improved. Amazon sells a lot of bunk as I’ve tried a few and only had luck with jiobit. I’d like to tinker with this.

Actually agreed. I work in hardware and have given people all the same feedback to the question/realization that "my pets chip is not a tracker"... Its not practical to attach this to pet.

And PS, I like to rant at hacker news, the community is so boring otherwise.

Which shows how bad are other comments, e.g., the one saying: "The solution is simple: keep the [cats] indoors"
