I'm pretty sure GP is talking about CPU low-power state like OP did, not OS sleep. They're entirely different things.

Someone needs to let the author in on the minor fact that classical liberalism and "liberalism" in America today have little to do with each other, and that the "rise of Trump" really has very little bearing on classical

Exactly this, but it should be made clear that this has nothing to do with the general safety of rural roads. In general there are dangers encountered when driving (especially at night) on rural roads which aren't encountered in urban

IANAL, but this sounds incomplete. Declaratory judgements are a thing. Presumably that doesn't apply in this case for various reasons.

"If you have nothing to hide you have nothing to fear." Are we really going with this argument? I thought we had grown past this stage now.

And according to the article the DoL has provided no evidence of this extraordinary claim. But of course since the headline is framed as a[n indirect] quote, the Guardian supposedly can't be accused of spreading fake news if it turns o

Nonono, you see, 51% and 58% are totally different and also Bernie provided sources which makes the exact same fact true whereas Trump didn't which makes it false. Politifact is completely unbiased. /s. I'm just getting thi

Offtopic, but "etc." isn't an acronym or initialism so shouldn't have periods after each letter. It is an abbreviation for "et cetera". Fun fact: historically it could also be rendered &c., because, after a

I didn't read the whole article; I hope to be able to return to it tomorrow. However, from a brief skim, it seems it started out well and then quickly went downhill. A better title might be, "A strawman in defense of Scientism&quo

You are deliberately misrepresenting my statement in order to cover up your own misrepresentations: in context, I was referring to the status quo of the law (or executive rules, I don't know if we're calling those laws this week

And "error" implies that the false statement was not made deliberately, and we have no evidence to suggest that either. So you're not being very truthful yourself. EDIT: I chose "lie" because to make such an obvious

Okay, let us know when you've written a fmt which works on, say, a mere 70% of kernel code. That should let you ignore the $N different assembler syntaxes at least.

JavaScript already has monads, whether or not they are recognized as such. What JavaScript needs is either Haskell's syntactic sugar for monads, or, much much better, lisp-style (as opposed to cpp or m4) macros which can be used to i
