In my article RLE: The Human Friendly Compression[^]
This afternoon, I got a vote, since all votes are 5 stars, I deduce it was an upvote.
But my reputation log says it was a downvote and removed 40 points 
Is it normal ?
Is there a sequence like clicking 1 star, then clicking 5 stars leading to a downvote in reputation and an upvote in article ?

That's an interesting one!
Hover over the dropdown on the rating control and you'll see there are 8 votes of 5. However, you have 10 votes overall. 2 votes are 2/5 and, because they fall too far outside of the voting trend, have been discounted. If a high level member votes 2, or you get another few 2's, all the 2's will kick in and you'll see a drop in the rating.
The question is: why are those missing 2 votes not being shown greyed out? I'll add this to the list.

I just published a new version of my article, and something fail to enforce the standard width.
Was OK with previous version of article.
RLE: The Human Friendly Compression[^]
Using old FireFox 56.
Looks OK with Chrome.

Looks OK in FireFox 99.
Probably an issue with the old version of FF.

Yes in very specific circumstances. I'll leave that as an exercise for the reader.

I wish I could see the original HTML. It's interesting that it's happened in both PRE blocks and straight HTML. Our HTML sanitiser is pretty good at dealing with that (it deals with it everyday).

I cut and pasted, I added HTML I thought would break it, but I couldn't (at least in our test rig) break it.

It would appear that < followed by a space is OK, but followed by any character is not.
This for (int i = 1; i < n; ++i) will not break it:
for (int i = 1; i < n; ++i)
This for (int i = 1; i <n; ++i)will (as you can see):
for (int i = 1; i

Well done.
(int i = 1; i <n ;="" ++i)
<="" div="">
It looks like it's a regression. We'll add it to the TODO

Looks like this especially happens after a post. Still only experience and no proper way to reproduce.

Yes, and thank you. I will be trying to track that one down tomorrow.

Chris,
Just wanted to let you know that this seems to be fixed. I could reproduce it 100% of the time. Last week, whatever change you made fixed the overlapping on my end.

I tried asking a question in Q&A. When I clicked Submit, it told me there was a problem with my keywords. I fixed the problem and clicked Submit again.
I was then informed I was "posting too often" and to "hold on there tiger".
Really?

Occasionally I'm told that there was a problem when posting something, only to discover that it got posted anyway. Might that explain it?
|

Are you upset that
a) I called you tiger,
b) our system thought, I'm guessing erroneously, that you were posting too frequently, or
c) that we had had to implement posting throttling because of spammers causing havoc and messing up life for everyone
What approximate time was was this, and how many posts had you made (roughly)?
Out of curiosity what was the problem with the keywords? Too many? An error when the system tried to process them?
cheers

Based on the error message about the keywords, I assumed the post had failed. I corrected the issue and tried to submit the question again. That's when I got the 'tiger' message.
It turns out the question actually posted: Has anyone written a windows 11 shell extension?[^]

If I start to reply on a forum message and I click the cancel button, then the main side panel navigation looks like below screenshot. If I refresh the page then it looks correct again.
google chrome latest version.

If you scroll to the top again and then back down does that issue still show?
I've seen it, but I can't repeat it, so it seems like there's a timing issue.
I think I'll just redo the entire CSS in bootstrap. This is just annoying
cheers
