'device needs more than the port can supply' error fixed when the USB device does not work like mouse, keyboard, speaker.

Brief Below videos has everything you need. It has steps to disable "USB selective suspend setting" so that more power will be supplied to USB. 1) From Device Manager. 2) From Control Panel. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DChp9Rm2MWc   The "USB selective suspend setting" is a power management feature in Windows that allows the operating system to put individual USB devices into a low-power state when they are not in use. This can help to conserve energy and reduce power consumption, especially on mobile devices or laptops where battery life is a concern. When a USB device is put into the selective suspend state, it stops functioning until it is resumed. This can cause a slight delay when the device is first used, but it can also result in significant power savings over time. The selective suspend setting can be found in the Power & sleep settings in Windows. By default, it is usually enabled, but you can choose to disable it if you need to ensure that a particu...

Pro tips for software developers.

 A) 4 steps to master a new technology - Java Brains Go to the official website and look for quick start guide. They usually cover the very minimum to get your feet wet. It gives a taste of what the technology/framework is all about. Read and actually do the steps. Take a YouTube/video course . This will give a good progressive learning with a guide. This should give a fair idea.  If your career depends on this new technology, pick a good book . Don’t have to follow end to end but get a good grasp of concepts. Don't have to do all the exercises but understand core concepts.  Build something from scratch . Take the technology in isolation and do a project with it. This will reduce the mental overload of using the technology with several other technologies as it usually happens in regular jobs.  This order is recommended but all steps are not mandatory. Depends on how deep you want to dive depending of the relevance of the technology to your career. Link - JavaBrai...
