verb (frequently with -"up")
To unintentionally change the observable characteristics of something, by the actions performed to make an observation. Derived from the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle.

Design Engineer: "Why did you report that my board's 12v rail drops out under such a low current load? My rail does NOT sag when the board is installed in any of our products. How are you testing this?"
Test Engineer: "I'm using a huge giant solenoid to make/break the cooling fan's power contact, that's the only way to override the software's fan control. Since it's a 12v solenoid, I figured I'd just source its current from the board. All I gotta do is turn on the fan, and your board eats shit. It's a tiny little fan, why did you use such a pussy-ass voltage regulator?
Design engineer: "The fan isn't doing this, dumb shit. It's you, Heisenberging up my board with your solenoid. Find your own power supply for your horseshit test setup, better yet find me a real test engineer."

Get the Matthias Schweighöfer as Werner Heisenberg mug.Look here, you white, so you are Walter White, so you Heisenberg....
Look at that Heisenberg over there drinking that pumpkin spice latte.
I was riding with my one Heisenberg friend, he got pulled over by the cops, and they let him go without a ticket!
