Chris has tossed this one to me.
There were some Redis Issues around the time you reported that you were having issues.
I have reset your cache data, hoping that this might fix the issue.
I also had to re-login a couple of times on the weekend, but it seems to be working fine now, of course.
Could you tell me if you are still getting the problem.
Also check your AdBlocker whitelist. We have had reports that some updates to the AdBlocker and/or the Spam site lists are messing these up.

It seems that whatever you done helped me - no logout in the last 12 hours...
Thank you very much!

Not sure if you will be interested on it, but there is a message adressed to @Chris-Maunder in the S&A forum.
@Sean-Ewington or @Matthew-Dennis I tag you just in case, to speak with Chris.
The post is: Question for Chris Maunder[^]

And it seems to be back with a vengeance. Almost every time I open QA now, I get a different set of random filters in the box.
I empty the box and click "update", and it seems to take. But then a few minutes later, it's set again.
No sign of the cookie you were looking for last time. The cookies I have are:
.codeproject.com:
- __gads
- __utma
- __utmz
- _gat_gtag_UA_1735123_1
- _ga
- _gid
- lpk
- mguid
- vk
www.codeproject.com:
- ai_user
- LoungeTab
- lpk
- mguid
- SessionGUID
The only obviously odd thing is the duplicated lpk and mguid cookies. The values appear to be the same, although they have different expiration dates.
Let me know if you need any more information.

It's still there intermittently for me, but nowhere near "every time" - maybe one time in twenty, perhaps?

Thanks mate. This one continues to evade us and so maybe it's the case we simply turn it off for now, rip the code out and start from scratch. There's some mold in there somewhere that bleach just isn't fixing.

Chris is working on it. Being the magician that he is, I expect him to pull a hat out of the rabbit any time now.

Making a small change in my profile and I couldn't save without having to supply my password.
OK - not outrageous - done by financial institutions, &etc.
Problem: the only place it seems I can enter it is in the 'change password' area. That was not my intention. Could this added security measure just pop-up a 'enter password', or even more clever, have a space for the password near 'SAVE' and disable SAVE until entered and matched?

It's annoying because you have to hover over a "change password" link to enter it. If password it required on all saves, then it needs to be part of the main form and not in a popup.
Also, having a popup for changing password is just bad design to begin with.

Yes, the design is awful. There's no indication that you're being asked for your password. I had to come here and read this before I could work out how to change my email address.

It's not designed to work like this. I'll get this sorted out.

I keep noticing people who, instead of adding missing info to the original question, post pages of code and stuff in comments or even as a solution.
I've wondered if they missed the green [Improve question] button because it's not always visible?
Then I wondered, why should it hide at all? Why is it not showing all the time? And that is my suggestion.
P.S.:
When I say button, another pet peeve of mine is stuff that behave like a button, but don't look like one! How should I know that some colored text in a corner is in fact an actionable element (i. e. a button)? How are new users supposed to know?
But that is a separate issue, on a much wider scope...

The idea was to keep the UI clean, but I agree and we're in the process of updating the UI.
Any suggestions you have, send them in! (even mockups if you're keen)

One random thought, which might not work:
If a user starts typing in the "solution" box on one of their own questions, show a big warning banner asking them whether they're actually trying to update their question, with a big "edit question" button.
Possibly with another confirmation message when they click submit.
It won't catch them all, but it might make it more obvious to new users who don't know how to update their question.

I haven't been receiving notifications and newsletters from CP in a while. I suspect that this is due to our company changing the address naming scheme, and phasing out the old addresses.
I wanted to fix my email address in my profile settings, but that requires an email confirmation, and it appears that the confirmation mail is *not* sent to the new, but to the old, invalid email address!
How can I confirm the change of address when the old is invalid?? 
Problem solved: I had mistyped the new address

I am opinionated, so I have been told by many...
I am not against technology, but...
what's with all these (obviously )- an opinion - see above -
LONG ABANDONED and UNANSWERED "quick answers" ?
( Obviously ) oxymoron title.
I am not against keeping archive, but are all these unanswered "quick" questions worth keeping ?
Make a managerial decision
if the "quick" question DOES NOT have accepted answer after period of time , ditch it!

The decision was made some time ago, and some of us are authorised to remove old questions. The problem is that there are thousands of them. It's a bit like painting the forth bridge (before long-life paint was invented).
