Most probably a problem of slope rates (capacitive load of the wild wiring). Ok one can sometimes adjust this by clockrate as a workaround(?). But the chance to burn down the hardware doing like is also always present; not all signals have a schmitt trigger input circuit

Well.. that's a new one!
But it certainly a good problem to have!

Actually it's not. I don't know where the code needs to be slowed down. It could be anywhere. Yikes.

Sorry, I have to ask... did you try increasing the voltage yet? Just bypass those pesky 3v3 regulators, they are just slowing things down.

Umm, I want this to work for other people, not just me. I'm not writing it for just me. If the code is 10% slower but works with most devices it won't kill anyone.

The is usually an easier problem to fix than increasing speed. That's the problem I have fought over the last two years and defeated.
Anyway, it sounds to me like you need configurable delay points with the ability to minimize them for certain devices and increase them for others. One that's one approach anyway.

That might be too complicated, given that 90% of the boards out there need the lowest common denominator code. I think I just need to find the sweet spot.
But you're right - sometimes. Maybe most of the time, it's easier to speed things up than slow things down. Unless you can just throw another core at it (I have two)

The wired breadboards work well up to about 1 MHz, then can have some strange behaviour above that. I suspect it is due to capacitance, but could be mistaken on that. The behaviour your describing fits into that kind of scenario.

Absolutely. The thing is though, is that I have to be able to tolerate it. I know it's possible because I'm working with code that does it as a guide, but I'm clearly missing something.

Thought of the Day will be making a brief return over the festive period, starting Monday (and probably but not definitely ending the following Friday).
So how long are you folks shutting down for? I assume most companies are working up to or on Christmas Eve and restarting in the new year?

I think our company is following that plan. But as usual, I've booked two weeks off, so today is my last day until 4th January.

Office, no shutting down since 25th is on Sunday and we do not have the awesome English holiday rule. Me, next week Wednesday is last until 4th Jan.

Company closes after next Thursday (23rd) until Monday, Jan 3rd - but I'm taking the prior week so today is my last day of the year. Woot!!!

this is my last day, taking 2 weeks off as is most of my team.

Cool.
The University we support is shutting down for two weeks starting Monday. The Foundation, where I work isn't shutting down but everyone is getting the 23rd, 24th, and 31st as well as three additional days of their choice during the next two weeks off as paid holidays.
Me, I'm taking two weeks and visiting my parents.

My clients (education support sector) will be out from today through the rest of the year. I however traditionally take the downtime to try and get caught up, though it is a much more relaxed schedule.

My clients will have work going on until Friday and then restarting the following Wednesday. Which means that if there are any issues, I'll be working. (There probably won't be!) But if I need a break from washing up and playing Monopoly, there's some fun real-time GPS/mapping work to do, some CSS tweaks and logging of a TCP/IP communication stream that all need to be ready early January. Plus I need to automate some archival stuff as that will save me time (and therefore also income!) in 2022.

I work when I feel like it for the most part. I probably won't shut down for long though as I get bored easily otherwise. I'm like that. I always have to have some code cooking or I'm under stimulated I guess. If I'm not actively working on it in the moment, then it's at least a current project i'm working on.

Darren Korb - In the Blood (feat. Ashley Barrett)[^]
So this doesn't happen often, but for the second time in a row the SOTW is from the same composer for the same soundtrack.
Last week, I shared the final boss theme of Hades and this week I finally made it to the credits.
The credits song is amazing, sung by Orpheus and Euridyce, or composer Darren Korb and singer Ashley Barrett in real life.
I guess everything else about Hades has already been said in last week's SOTW, so I'll just repeat that it's an awesome game with an awesome soundtrack!
After today I'm taking a two week vacation from work and the SOTW.
I'll be back with new sounds in January!

Enjoy your break.

Look forward to it.
Have been meaning to share Primus - The Rainbow Goblins[^] with you for while now. Take a moment over your break to listen this album and hope you enjoy. The album is based on a kids books which has amazing and vivid paintings ( I can't find the link which describes it better then what I can).
Primus is one of favourite bands, too many songs to list. Not sure if many people know it but they did the opening song to South Park.

Primus is an odd one.
Listened to Sailing the Seas of Cheese a couple of times way back when.
Listening to the goblin album now and I hear they haven't changed
