SENotifier, a Stack Exchange inbox notifier for Mac OS X @PaulPeelen: That's curious. Thanks for the info, I'll see if I can find out why that is happening. |

SENotifier, a Stack Exchange inbox notifier for Mac OS X @PaulPeelen: Is it possible that you have two instances of the notifier running at the same time? This can happen accidentally if you ask it to hide itself, then start another one. |

SENotifier, a Stack Exchange inbox notifier for Mac OS X Thanks! The red message is a warning message, so it probably doesn't matter much. But I'll see if I can find a way to change that. |

Why does the /events service sometimes pause for a couple of minutes? @russau: I think you're on to something. I tried adding a random nonce= parameter to the query, but that didn't seem to help. Then I tried decreasing the since= parameter by 1 every time I got no results, and that does seem to avoid this problem (and I now get individual periods with no new events). |

Why does the /events service sometimes pause for a couple of minutes? @russau: That's a good point. If the caching is done at a layer above the API request handler, and during some 10-second period there is no new activity, then subsequent requests will use the same since field. That would explain why I never see single 10-second periods with 0 new events. |
