message: I think the circumstances should be taken into consideration especially if convicted with under the infulence of narcotics. If after a period of time the individual stays clean and sober the felony should be dropped down to a misdaminor not only if it is their first offence.

Talk:Thread (computing)

message: The article says "Typically fibers are implemented entirely in userspace. As a result, context switching between fibers in a process is extremely efficient: because the kernel is oblivious to the existence of fibers, a context switch does not require a system call."  Why would a context switch require a system call in any situation? Is it talking about non-preemptive multitasking? If so, wouldn't it be better if the article mentioned it? If the article isn't intended to say that a system call is required for a context switch, then it would be better if it were cleared up in the article. It's misleading. It would help if the article (that section) is clearer anyway.
: Yeah, it would be more clear to say "a context switch does not require a kernel entry" or some such. I'm not sure that it matters whether or not the thread implementation is preemptively scheduled or not: in a cooperatively scheduled implementation of kernel threads, there is still some kernel state associated with the currently-running thread, and so a kernel entry is some kind is required to switch that state, right? The point is somewhat academic, anyway, as cooperatively-scheduled kernel thread implementations are rare AFAIK. Neilc 04:23, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I made that change.  I was trying to figure out how to get something about pre-emptive scheduling of threads involving the kernel programming a hardware interrupt in order to stop the current thread, but couldn't figure out how to word that decently. :) Dianne Hackborn 05:51, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)

thread_title: Open issues

message: I'm sorry about the deletions that I made last August (referred to above—my username is Skal). I would take it upon myself to fix the damage I've done to what was otherwise a reasonably good article, were it not for the fact that this article is probably superfluous. I see little in this article (even as it was before I mutilated it) that is not there in the article on Phrase structure grammar (which redirects to Chomsky hierarchy). Even what little is (or was) here that is not there rightly belongs to that page. Therefore, I suggest that this page be merged with Phrase structure grammar. Any thoughts?
By the way, should Phrase structure grammar redirect to Chomsky hierarchy? It's been a while since I last read a book on syntax, but it may be useful to have a separate article detailing each of the concepts, as I believe that phrase structure grammar and Chomsky hierarchy are not the same thing.--Siva 20:42, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree that this article should merge with phrase structure grammar, and that the PSG article should de-merge with the Chomsky hierarchy article.  PSG and the Chomsky hierarchy are different enough concepts to merit their own respective articles.  On a practical level, the easiest thing to do is to move this article to PSG and have phrase structure rules redirect to PSG.  Then we can expand this current article to treat both topics.  –jonsafari 18:23, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Indigenous peoples

message: I would like it added in the first paragraph that we have been humans for approximately 150,000 years and that in actuality, all the indigenous peoples we know were not actually the first people in those areas and that they had conquered and wiped out the actual indigenous peoples there. 
For example, we consider "native americans" to be indigenous, but in reality, they just conquered and wiped out all those before them and were the 'colonists' themselves.

Talk:Monopoly

message: The economic incentives for a monoply make it likely that they will sell a lower quantity of goods at a higher price than firms would in a purely competitive market in order to secure monopoly profits
Removed:
:though Murray Rothbard has shown (Man, Economy, and State, chapter 10) that this is only possible in the case of a government-granted monopoly. 
That doesn't make sense to me.  What about natural monopolies like the telephone company or railroads.  I would expect that they would be able to sustainably charge above competative rates because of the high cost to enter the industry.  Please exaplain more if you wish to add this to the article.  Thanks.  Jrincayc 02:04, 29 Apr 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: To claim point blank that Rothbard has shown this is certainly POV, but it is perhaps worth mentioning Rothbard's take (and the Austrian School's take more broadly) on the nature of competition and monopoly. The argument goes something like this: government-granted monopolies are able to act somewhat as the classical analysis suggests that they would, because the law forcibly prohibits any competitors from entering the market (and the monopolists themselves don't have to foot the bill for squashing any attempts at trading through the black market). But "natural monopolies," they argue, face "virtual competition" even if they do not face actual competition: specifically, they have to set their quantity and price (and engage in entrepreneurial activities) with the expectation that the closer they charge to classical monopoly prices rather than equilibrium prices, and the less they invest in entrepreneurship and research, the more of an incentive and an opportunity they create for entrepreneurs to enter the market to compete with them. (They'd also point out, quite rightly, that heavily subsidized and regulated industries such as the railroad and telephone infrastructures are not the best case studies in the action of "natural" monopolists....)

Talk:Manhattan (disambiguation)

message: I had begining to made Manhattan into a disambiguating pages,
but then I doubted...what do the rest think?
Depends on what you suppose will be most convenient for the reader. If the Manhattan island article gets too long, it might become hard to find the drink. I don't drink alcoholic beverages, so that's no hardship for me, but . . .
I guess the rule would be: disambiguate when it starts getting ambiguous.

This really seems like a bad disambiguation, since all Manhattans follow from the main Manhattan. But I don't have a much better solution. --The Cunctator
:All Manhattans follow from the main Manhattan? Is it certain that Manhattan, Kansas was named for the place in New York? -- BRG
::According to http://www.cis.ksu.edu/Misc/about.manhattan.html , "The city was founded in 1855 by a group of riverboat traders who hoped to establish a trading center that would rival the Manhattan of the East. The city takes its nickname, ``The Little Apple, from its New York namesake." --Brion
----
Hello! I added the reference to the Native American origin of the place name "Manhattan". I think it is perfectly relevant to the disambiguation page, since the historical origin of this name is questioned ... right here. I thought it was kind of weird to have an entire page on the uses of the name "Manhattan" without every mentioning its origin and first usage. If a reader like BRG is asking whether Manhattan of NY was the first instance, he's not the only one. So it seems logically obvious to begin the page by briefly explaining the origin of the name and its first usage.
