A clickbait title should be: "A dog named Kubernetes ate a YubiKey."

> the eyes move around, locating interesting parts of the scene and building up a mental, three-dimensional 'map' corresponding to the scene

Your reference is very interesting for me because in computer vision we try to locate local features and try to match these local features, so that 3D correspondence can be extracted from multiple images which called structure from motion (SfM). Now I know, humans (and animals) also do the same thing!

Maybe it is not all related with sound but vision! it must be related with inputs to brain but it cant be only sound.

If you ever work with computer vision, rotating an image a little, lets say tilt, can vastly increase or decrease your algorithm's performance.

For example: early face detection algorithms were looking for T zone in your face from eyebrows to nose. (cheeckbones are generally brighter areas) However, those old algorithms were very bad at if the image is 180 degree rotated (T zone is not T anymore). Dont have to be 180 45 degree is enough for most face detection algorithms.

In neural nets, artificial intelligence practices like augmenting data, rotate the image a little and give the same image as an input data namely Augmenting data improves algorithm performance. In my opinion the dogs multiply the input by rotating or tilting their head so that autmatically augmenting data!!! So that they can detect better whatever they were looking before.

Computer scientist keep inspiring from nature but maybe its time to explain some phenomena with computer science methods. Researcher force themselves to find a new thing in computer area, maybe they go beyond nature sometimes unintentionally.

Why netdata is popular on HN now? There must be some big news or something..

I was also planning to publish new blog with minimal template. Here is one https://lumen.netlify.app/ with gatsby This has 100 performance on lighthouse tests and also pwa implemented.
