If you don't know Jira, you get e-mail notifications to tell you if someone has updated a comment or edited a comment. I just got an e-mail showing me that somebody had 'corrected' the following word in one of my comments.
got gotten

Now it's your turn to correct it:

"Jira:" your paying some peasant from Harbin living in a giant dormitory in Guangzhou, working fourteen-hour shifts six days a week on a Console-only application, and half-days Sundays, lucky to get a Happy Meal once-a-month, peanuts per month to scan CodeProject and send you e-mails ?
Well, what would you expect for those wages ?

One thing - why do you let anyone correct what you've just said?
 I know, I am going to right a wrong sentence, but why should I let you update it? Hmmmm?

Because Jira is a collaborative tool so anyone with the appropriate permissions could do it. Oh, and while you are wondering about why you should let us update it - I could quite easily edit your message here because I have the appropriate permissions.

I know Jira and well that is a software, mistakes are evident due to logic. That was the behaviour it had to adopt, since you opt in to recieve updates you will get updates no need to complain.
Yep! I was going to write, update it - if you're not having permissions.

...that smoke detectors only start chirping in the middle of the night when the battery starts to die. It NEVER happens in the daytime. Gotta be somebody's sick joke.

Yes you can.
For example, put your left(/right) arm up in the air and cover your left(/right) ear with your upper arm, bend elbow over top of head, bend wrist down and stick finger in ear. voila. If necessary squeeze arm against ear for extra silencing effect.
Other arm is now free to use as you please.

Just wait until they get so old you need to replace the whole thing. They will start to trigger for no apparent reason and it will happen in the middle of the night. Been there, done that. 
When mine hit that age about a year ago, they triggered when I was fast asleep. I jumped out of bed and checked the whole house for smoke, but there was nothing. I then had to find the stepladder and try to find out which of the five units was causing it. Oh, yeah, the joy of connected smoke detectors.

Just some input:
Most people are not home during most of the day. Given that, the chances are that if you're home and the battery's gonna' go while you're present (vs. whist away from home) it'll most likely go off at night.
You can avoid the annoying chirping once-and-for-all by removing the batteries.

Which further reduces the chances of being awakened by the detector (ever).
I don't see a problem.

I feel the need to offer a possible scientific explanation: Usually temperatures in the house are cooler than during the day; batteries have a lower output at lower temperatures; smoke detectors draw very little current from the battery (when they are not sounding an alarm) therefore they are sensitive in changes to battery output . Ergo, they almost always give a low battery alarm at night.
There's that and sod's law to contend with!

Dear Beloved,
That cancer is a bitch, isn't it?
As much as I'd like to help I already have in excess of $250,000,000 in my bank account. It just sits there all day doing nothing. The three houses and fourteen automobiles are all paid for but those #%$#! payouts from the lottery just keep rolling in - did you know there is no legal recourse to force the state to stop making deposits? What happens if the freakin' account fills up? I don't want to go to jail!
What I'm saying is another $3,000,000 would actually be a burden at this point. I cannot get rid of this stuff fast enough. If you would like to help please find me a scam artist who can help clean up this mess - sorry, a kind old lady like you wouldn't know anyone like that - anyways, good luck with the Chemo.

Sure Griff, send me your bank details and I'll wire it straight over.
