WTF Bite: Debugging why a PCI driver is sometimes missing interrupts. I found someone accidentally inverted a bool in a way that meant it only called interrupt handlers when an interrupt didn't occur. But due to a race condition, if an interrupt came in while it was at the beginning of the handler that ran when there were no interrupts, it would then process the entire backlog of interrupts and mostly worked by accident.

You can try if faking activity with “Staying Alive for Google Chrome™” plugin (or corresponding plugin for whatever browser you use) helps…
The real policy is login expires after 1 hour of inactivity or 2 hours of activity. It's dumb.
Sorry boss. I missed the meeting because I was auto-logged out again and didn't see the notification.
Feature. Keep it.edit: Yes, I'm completely ignoring
But I'm obviously still logged in until that point or I wouldn't have seen the message to click on it.

Our product logs you out on any activity if you've been idle for an hour before that.
It also does this when the new activity is on the login page.

I opened the Fitbit app on the phone to sync my tracker. It tells me:
Update Fitbit-App
This version is no longer compatible with your Charge 3. It is possible that your device no longer connects to the app. You have to update the app in this case.What the fuck is that supposed to mean?
The tracker isn't connected to the internet, only indirectly through syncing to the app, so it hasn't updated or changed in any way. The app also hasn't changed, because that's obviously what it's complaining about: being out of date. How can two devices that used to work together no longer work together when neither of them has changed?!

Except in my "brutal honesty" I offered you constructive criticism on your post,
You gave what i'm assuming is the "constructive criticism" half an hour after I commented amusedly on the downvote, a comment that didn't ask who it was that downvoted.
this criticism was a list of basic statistics on the issues on github and a story about a issue you filed that is still open. I honestly fail to see how that is constructive, except compared to the post of yours i was actually replying to...
Speaking of.... another two hours later you dropped the "news" that you were the one who downvoted me, at least a full two and a half hours after you downvoted the post. Your post explaining this said this was basically "You raised a point that needed explanation and also I downvoted you because you're unfunny".
well 1) i did not actually care who downvoted me. could have been the great goddess Amaterasu herself what did it for all I cared. and 2) you said in your post that the downvote was for the humor and 3) constructive criticism is not "be funnier"
Thus you got "I don't care. downvote me for the humor. it is actually literally impossible for me to care less about your opinion of my humor.." and because you have shown that you care who downvoted you i posted proof that i didn't because your post was already at negative votes.
and you got offended at my "dismissiveness" of your opinion on my humor..... soo...... yeah. My brutal honesty is "I don't care you don't like my humor." which is dismissive because the fact you don't like my humor has zero relevance to me.
but, you know what.... maybe it's better this way. if you want to think of me as a "Holier than Thou" asshole of a manager.... fine. I can live with that, but in return you'll have to live with the fact that i think the same about you. Except for the part about being a manager, because that's not factually true now, I reserve the right to add that bit back in if you ever start managing a team.
Also you wanted an essay? sure, I can do that:

Juul was a one of those "play fast and loose" California startups which is now owned by Altria (aka Philip Morris).
Their office is very near my CA home; I've driven past it many times. So when I saw a job listing for a "hardware verification engineer" I was interested. (I recognized the name as a nearby company, but not as to the nature of their business.) I don't remember whether it was sent to me by a recruiter or just an automated recommendation from LinkedIn or whoever based on the job title, but I was interested enough to read more.
It has nothing to do with chip verification. It doesn't even have anything to do with electronic hardware, unless you consider a heating element electronic. And hell no, I wouldn't work for your company even if the job were a good match for my skills, FUVM.

You can try if faking activity with “Staying Alive for Google Chrome™” plugin (or corresponding plugin for whatever browser you use) helps…
The real policy is login expires after 1 hour of inactivity or 2 hours of activity. It's dumb.
Our product logs you out on any activity if you've been idle for an hour before that.
Ours is set to something like 5 or 10 minutes. But then again, we deal with people's medical information, so...
It also does this when the new activity is on the login page.
In at least some versions of our web program (we have several in production right now for different clients and different studies for the same client), switching between the admin console and the end user system can cause the login to fail once with a message "<other system> account detected, logging out" after entering correct credentials, despite having already logged out (manually or automatically) of the other system.

Did it use an index into the list of articles, starting from the newest?
Sometimes, they'll offer an alternate link directly to the article using a URL that has the article title encoded therein. Sometimes.

we don't even have proof that vaping is safer
With appropriate regulation (e.g., of composition and concentrations and so on of the liquids), it appears to be definitively safer than smoking. I make no claim that it is either actually safe — the list of things safer than smoking is a very long one! — or that anywhere in the US is necessarily applying appropriate regulation. I do note however that vaping users in the UK have significantly less lung and throat irritation than smokers, and they're a hell of a lot more pleasant to be near as a non-user of any nicotine-based product.

They often have other deficiencies such as being insufferable eejits.
