Original post body:

Is it only me, or is everyone facing this issue very frequently over the last 3 days? Facing this after 30-60 minutes of continuous work. Have tried `Compating Context`, re-login, etc. Nothing is fixing this permanently. Facing the same on 2 of my machines on 2 different internet networks, son not an internet issue.
