I can't believe someone put time into this ;-)
Hi everyone
I've been using ThingSpeak for several years now without an issue until last Thursday.
I have four ThingSpeak channels which are used by three Arduino devices (in two locations/on two distinct networks) all running the same code.
All three devices stopped being able to write data to my ThingSpeak channels around 17:00 CET on 4 Dec and are still unable to.
Nothing changed on this side, let alone something that would explain the problem.
I would note that data can still be written to all the channels via a browser so there is no fundamental problem with the channels (such as being full).
Since the above date and time, any HTTP/1.1 'update' (write) requests via the REST API (using both simple one-write GET requests or bulk JSON POST requests) are timing out after 5 seconds and no data is being written. The 5 second timeout is my Arduino code's default, but even increasing it to 30 seconds makes no difference. Before all this, responses from ThingSpeak were sub-second.
I have recompiled the Arduino code using the latest libraries and that didn't help.
I have tested the same code again another random api (api.ipify.org) and that works just fine.
Curl works just fine too, also usng HTTP/1.1
So the issue appears to be something particular to the combination of my Arduino code *and* the ThingSpeak environment, where something changed on the ThingSpeak end at the above date and time.
If anyone in the community has any suggestions as to what might be going on, I would greatly appreciate the help.

Hello,
I have Arduino DIY Geiger Counter, that uploads data to my channel here in ThingSpeak (3171809), using ESP8266 WiFi board. It sends CPM values (counts per minute), Dose, VCC and Max CPM for 24h. They are assignet to Field from 1 to 4 respectively. How can I duplicate Field 1, so I could create different time chart for the same measured unit? Or should I duplicate Field 1 chart, and how? I tried to find the answer here in the blog, but I couldn't.
I have to say that I'm not an engineer or coder, just can simply load some Arduino sketches and few more things, so I'll be very thankfull if someone could explain like for non-IT users.
Regards,
Emo

Hey everyone,
I’m currently working with MATLAB R2025b and using the MQTT blocks from the Industrial Communication Toolbox inside Simulink. I’ve run into an issue that’s driving me a bit crazy, and I’m not sure if it’s a bug or if I’m missing something obvious.
Here’s what’s happening:
- I open the MQTT Configure block.
- I fill out all the required fields — Broker address, Port, Client ID, Username, and Password.
- When I click Test Connection, it says “Connection established successfully.” So far so good.
- Then I click Apply, close the dialog, set the topic name, and try to run the simulation.
- At this point, I get the following error:Caused by: Invalid value for 'ClientID', 'Username' or 'Password'.
- When I reopen the MQTT config block, I notice that the Password field is empty again — even though I definitely entered it before and the connection test worked earlier.
It seems like Simulink is somehow not saving the password after hitting Apply, which leads to the authentication error during simulation.
Has anyone else faced this? Is this a bug in R2025b, or do I need to configure something differently to make the password persist?
Would really appreciate any insights, workarounds, or confirmations from anyone who has used MQTT in Simulink recently.
Thanks in advance!
Inspired by @xingxingcui's post about old MATLAB versions and @유장's post about an old Easter egg, I thought it might be fun to share some MATLAB-Old-Timer Stories™.
Back in the early 90s, MATLAB had been ported to MacOS, but there were some interesting wrinkles. One that kept me earning my money as a computer lab tutor was that MATLAB required file names to follow Windows standards - no spaces or other special characters. But on a Mac, nothing stopped you from naming your script "hello world - 123.m". The problem came when you tried to run it. MATLAB was essentially doing an eval on the script name, assuming the file name would follow Windows (and MATLAB) naming rules.
So now imagine a lab full of students taking a university course. As is common in many universities, the course was given a numeric code. For whatever historical reason, my school at that time was also using numeric codes for the departments. Despite being told the rules for naming scripts, many students would default to something like "26.165 - 1.1" for problem one on HW1 for the intro applied math course 26.165.
No matter what they did in their script, when they ran it, MATLAB would just say "ans = 25.0650".
Nothing brings you more MATLAB-god credibility as a student tutor than walking over to someone's computer, taking one look at their output, saying "rename your file", and walking away like a boss.
It was 2010 when I was a sophomore in university. I chose to learn MATLAB because of a mathematical modeling competition, and the university provided MATLAB 7.0, a very classic release. To get started, I borrowed many MATLAB books from the library and began by learning simple numerical calculations, plotting, and solving equations. Gradually I was drawn in by MATLAB’s powerful capabilities and became interested; I often used it as a big calculator for fun. That version didn’t have MATLAB Live Script; instead it used MATLAB Notebook (M-Book), which allowed MATLAB functions to be used directly within Microsoft Word, and it also had the Symbolic Math Toolbox’s MuPAD interactive environment. These were later gradually replaced by Live Scripts introduced in R2016a. There are many similar examples...
Out of curiosity, I still have screenshots on my computer showing MATLAB 7.0 running compatibly. I’d love to hear your thoughts?
Do you have a swag signed by Brian Douglas? He does!
I came across this fun video from @Christoper Lum, and I have to admit—his MathWorks swag collection is pretty impressive! He’s got pieces I even don’t have.
So now I’m curious… what MathWorks swag do you have hiding in your office or closet?
- Which one is your favorite?
- Which ones do you want to add to your collection?
Show off your swag and share it with the community! 🚀
I saw this YouTube short on my feed: What is MATLab?
I was mostly mesmerized by the minecraft gameplay going on in the background.
Found it funny, thought i'd share.

Morpheus
- Unfortunately, no one can be told what the Matlab is. You have to see it for yourself.
And also later :

Hi,
I have some problem, I want to upload my data that sample rate at 500HZ, every sevral seconds.
My data include 12 bytes, and it measure 500HZ, for example for 15 seconds I coolect 15*500*12 = 84KB.
Can I upload this data to ThingSpeak? It is possible to use with Free acount (I am student and this is my project)
How can help me..
I designed and stitched this last week! It uses a total of 20 DMC thread colors, and I frequently stitched with two colors at once to create the gradient.

Is there a hardware support package available for the MP series?
I'm facing an issue where my Thinkspeak graph is not displaying, even though I'm using exactly the same code as my friend. The code works perfectly in their Thinkspeak account, but not on mine. I've checked the API keys, channel settings, and data formats, but everything seems similar. Has anyone else faced this problem, or do you have tips on what to check next? Suggestions are welcome!
