Is this a recent issue? Or has it always happened?
Could you try clearing all cookies for me and let me know if the issue comes back. I know - a major PITA, but it my solve it.

OK, cleared cookies and still no luck.
It just wont let me sign out.
(BTW the work machine is FF 3.6 too, like at home, but at home I can sign out.)

If you cleared the cookies then it's impossible for you to be signed in, since sign-in requires cookies. Something weird this way comes...
OK, try closing all Firefox windows, then go to a non-CP site, then clear all cookies, even the hidden ones, even the ones firefox said it cleaned but didn't (I'm sure there's a menu option somewhere) and then navigate to CodeProject.

OK, I cleared all cookies this time, not just CP ones.
And it works, why should that be?
Decidedly odd I think, but at least now I can log out when I go away.

Sounds like a mal-formed cookie, or a cookie that was for a subdomain instead of the main domain.

Few days back i reported this:DownVoting Points?[^]. There was no reply to that. I still find the same atleast for Q&A section for sure. Sometimes for forums.
Today i noticed, Answering in Q&A gives 15 points. As per Reputation FAQ's[^], it should had been 10. Is there some change that we are suppose to know? All working as planned?

As Chris described in that other thread they are weighted according a member's level. We'll add more details in the Reputation FAQ[^].

Can someone delete this thread[^]...
Also, a warning might help
he posted this as a Question in Q&A forum:

Holy Moley, I don't remember posting that!
Ah wait, I didn't, someone is impersonating 'Friday Night Dalek Dave', my booze enthused alter ego.

It's a dirty job, but someone has to do it.

Chris,
I have been doing much research on CUDA and Microsoft's Task Parallel Library. In the near near future I will be writing articles on how to write Massively Parallel Applications using CUDA and TPL. Is there any way you could add a category for Massively Parallel code or CUDA/TPL? Intel also has an architecture for parallel code generation but I will not be using that.
Nvidia will soon be releasing the next version of their GPU 'Fermi', which is really a quantum leap in GPU technology. Additionally they have released a beta product for integration with Visual Studio 2010 for debugging CUDA Kernels, I am on the beta list and would also like to write articles about this topic. As is there is no place to put the articles except in the general 'c' language or general topic.
I recently finished a book published by Nvidia on Massively Parallel Programming - A Hand Guide. It was very informative and I have a book review in the works already. I should complete that this week, and assign it to the usual Book Review category. Although the current method of achieving maximum memory to GPU through put is a limiting factor, the book explains many methods for optimizing the kernel code so it runs at near maximum capacity. And the code is not as complicated as one may think.
I think some examples and articles on how to make use of this technology would attract many developers and engineers to adopting these techniques in their existing systems. Although most of the applications are scientific, I have an article to show how to create a search engine that processes queries to XML data in parallel, this would benefit many, and might attract even more people to using GPU's to process huge data sets in parallel or calculations that would otherwise take too long with out such optimizations. There is actually a wealth of information on parallel algorithms, which are completely different from the norm, I would like to demonstrate some of the not so 'Black Art' techniques.
Let me know your thoughts!

How about a "Parallel Programming" section under "General Programming"? Would that work?
I used to do a lot of parellel programming way-back-when and I'm so glad to see it hitting mainstream. Looking forward to your articles.

Sounds good to me! What about adding CUDA to the list of languages?

But it gets translated to lowercase when the *s are applied
|
|
|
|

do you want an upper-case '*'?

Well that would be nice. Failing that, having the letters surrounding the '*' uppercase would be good.

wrapping in *'s is the traditional plaintext way of indicating bold.
3x12=36
2x12=24
1x12=12
0x12=18

Two solutions
1. don't swear.
(OK, not a solution really...)
2. Self-censor in uppercase, for #$%!'s sake.
(see how I swore in all caps? Easy!)
