There's some good work being done in small niches on bees [0] [1] and others. Are any HN folks working on bee-focused projects that would give their work a shoutout? I'd love throw in on research, data collection or product development work using my own hives if teams are looking for help.<p>[0] <a href="https://apic.ai" rel="nofollow">https://apic.ai</a><p>[1] <a href="https://pollenity.com" rel="nofollow">https://pollenity.com</a><p>edit - links
Heard the same story from a beekeeper in Poland. Some assholes are actually stealing other beekeepers' hives.<p>Are there any affordable tracking devices with long battery life (a few months) available that could be used to track down the thieves?
Bee theft has a long history, with even Plato talking about it. (Laws 8.843d-e)<p>>And if any, yielding to his taste of bees, secures for himself another man's swarm by attracting them with the rattling of pans, he shall pay for the damage.
