For your time-wasting enjoyment! I'd never heard of Jiminy Glick before, and to find that Martin Short is one of our all-time comedy greats came as a surprise!

Because the public social media domain is the perfect place for this kind of information. Now everyone will know.
Wonder if these will work for grandpa?
They probably chose twitter just to be able to call it "tweetpee". WhatsappPee just doesn't sound all that marketable.

If they did it on Facebook messenger like "FacePee" one day or another the world knows every babies pee history and not to mention the constant surveillance of the baby's diaper by Facebook to train it's AI for predicting when the baby is about to pee.

Does the baby need to give its consent and accept cookies every time you change the diaper?

Maybe a rusk rather than a cookie!

Great. Like I would want to put a low power GHz transmitter right next to my baby's privates.

As a technical person, do you prefer to report to a technical or non-technical manager?
I have had good and bad experiences with both.
On the up, I appreciate the freedom and trust extended by good non-technical managers, as well as the guidance from good technical managers.
On the down, some non-technical managers try too hard to be involved in the detail and often make bad calls based on their insufficient understanding of a problem or situation. I found that technical managers, on the other hand, can be very authoritarian, really just giving commands, these are often the ones who have the highest staff turnover (among coders) as well.
From my experience, I prefer reporting to non-technical managers. I found that the technical know-how and guidance I used to seek from technical seniors is mostly available from any diverse group of peers and juniors, each with unique interests and strengths.
Whichever you prefer, I'd like to share this snippet:
SARS gives clarity on e-filing collapse - YouTube[^] (forwarded to the best part)
...and ask for a moment of silence for the IT people who work for this company. It's a month-old interview with the "Chief Officer for Digital and IT" of SARS (South Africa's revenue collection services).
Enjoy!
