Power states are much more complex than this.

In reality, CPUs and SoCs have multiple levels of sleep, some of which are standardized for a platform. ACPI at least tries to specify what should happen on x86/x64 systems. ARM has some standards, and then each SoC implements a lot of their own, which, to be fair, are sometimes really cool.

For lots of the power saving modes, hardware drivers have to opt in. This is where a lot of problems happen, if a single driver doesn't work, a laptop won't go to sleep, and the battery dies. Or, on mobile, a single bug in some component (which may manifest itself only under certain situations, which is why a reset can fix some problems) can prevent a good sleep state from being entered.

Of course software can also present problems. For the longest time, if WebGL content was loaded in any tab in, I think FF (either that or Chrome, heh), then the GPU would stay on and the system would never go to sleep.

Fun stuff like that.

The behavior people really want is "turns on quickly, uses little battery." That is harder to do on PC due to legacy, but part of the problem is also different usage patterns from mobile. Users check their mobile frequently, if something is draining the battery, odds are it'll be noticed in a couple hours and the phone will get a charge (and some apps potentially force killed, based on how knowledgeable the user is.) Laptops have less periodic usage patterns, so a single problem program may not get noticed before the battery is completely dead.
For tabular data, I recommend using Duckling [1] which is a regex-based approach to data classification and it supports multiple languages. If you only need English, then Stanford CoreNLP's SUTime [2] will also work. You can extend either tool with your own regexes.

For documents, I recommend using Apache Tika which will do a decent job out of the box to extract the raw text. The raw text can then by indexed in ES. In my experience, it is the best tool for detecting a document's type. It is not necessarily the best tool for extracting text depending on the document type. For example, it is better to use a paid solution for OCR PDFs if you can afford it. However it is often good enough and very easy to use.

If you need to extract tabular data from documents, then that is a much harder problem and you are on the cutting-edge of NLP/ML research. One tool available in Stanford CoreNLP that may help is SPIED [3]. If the tool isn't exactly what you need, then I would recommend using the paper as a starting point for literature review.

My kids loved to play Minecraft too until they found out about mods and now they have no fun doing regular creative stuff in vanilla MC anymore.

I think that also goes hand-in-hand with the trend for kids to just stare at screens all day and not really do things.

My oldest son just began his first year in public school at 8th grade (he was homeschooled until now) and they had a puzzle challenge and all the other kids took like 20 minutes to do a 50 piece puzzle.

My son told me how surprised he was and I had to explain to him that those other kids in class probably just sit and stare at a screen all day, just like he notices they do on their bus ride.

Kids these days don't go out and play nearly as much, they don't go exploring the neighborhood during summer or evenings, they don't play with LEGOs, they don't do puzzles, they don't just sit and read a good book, they aren't prepared to understand so many aspects of life that us older generations take for granted.

I know the whole "kids these days" is a cliche, but in this case these are actually legitimately huge changes happening in society and culture, on the scale of electricity and trains: having the entire internet at your fingertips pretty much 24/7 even from a young age is going to change future generations in gigantic ways that I don't think society really understands, and which I definitely think the mass media and society in general is financially incentivized to keep quiet about or try to ignore.

Well, considering our bodies all eventually end up feeding lower animals, plants, and bacteria, it can't be that fatal to them.

Edit: If you want way too much detail in answer to your question: http://www.chemet.com/assets/1/6/Copper_and_the_Ocean_Enviro... The most relevant bit is probably this bit on the bottom of page 5 and into page 6: "A study was performed to determine if pen-raised salmon were bioaccumulating copper from the antifouling coatings on the pens (20). Five pens were used - three of which were treated with cuprous oxide containing antifouling coatings and the other two were left untreated. The concentrations of copper in the muscle and liver of the salmon were measured, Figure 7. It was found that there was no correlation to pen treatments. It was speculated that the reason for this is the leaching of the copper was sufficiently slow such that the natural homeostasis of the fish and their detoxification processes are not compromised
and that the leached Cu ion is reduced by complexation with organic and inorganic substances in the seawater."

It isn't clear to me if these "pens" were enclosed or not; if they were then there really doesn't seem to be much reason to worry about copper antifouling.

The article also says "Copper is an essential element required for normal growth in all plants and animals. As such, it is considered a normal constituent in the ecosystem
in both soil and water where its presence is partially due to the metabolic by-products of plants and animals as previously discussed." The oceanic concentration of copper is given as 0.25ppb, which comes out to 340 million metric tons of copper in the oceans overall. I suspect that, like many do with "radiation", we tend to casually assume the normal concentration in the world is zero, thus rendering any human addition to the world an infinite-percent increase, but the natural world is messier than that.

I thank you for your question, the research was interesting.

* Inflation is a feature of currencies, not a bug. Now, you may disagree with the debt-driven economy, but it has indisputably responsible for uplifting billions of people out of poverty. [1]

* In 2017, traditional currencies work pretty well for global business.

* Without reversible transactions, you get to bear the full, unamortized cost of any and all fraud. Good luck issuing a chargeback against a bad vendor with cryptocoins. You also can't do many useful things without delegating to third parties, at which point you expose yourself to the same counterparty risk you wanted to avoid. Oh, I suppose you could deal with that problem by writing Ethereum contracts (In which case, you now have n+1 problems, for an unbounded value of n.)

* Most non-credit card transaction fees for USD are a few cents, or close to zero. If you're wiring money to Uganda five times a day, this may not be the case for you, but most of us aren't. (And BTC transaction fees are no longer close to zero.)

[1] I don't actually believe this to be the case, but it seems to be an argument that advocates of wild west capitalism use to extol the virtues of that economic system.

Most people consider love what is better described as lust: a psychological attraction that lasts for about 2 years. If this is all you have to base a relationship on, then after 2 years the feeling wears off and the whole relationship is done.

By contrast, if your relationship is based on just about anything else, whatever those other things are are not as likely to change and so the basis of the relationship doesn't change either.

Better solution: stop creating heat in the home. Instead of using gas or electricity to heat water, use a heat pump joined to the A/C. Store greywater and heat that up, then send it down the sewers. A liter of water has the same heat capacity as 3 cubic meters of air and a person uses 300+ liters of water per day, enough to cool 3200 square feet of house by 10 F.
You are correct it is an oxymoron, but the most realistic Flat Tax proposals do just that.

They say there should be a 20% tax, on any income above the $35,000 a year threshold. While it still does effect people on the lower end more, the first part of their income is at least partially untaxed.

And the bar is low enough that the super rich will not be able to create schemes to keep there income under that bar.

I use OpenBSD because

1) it's the most secure operating system available, under any license agreement.
2) their community is the quickest to respond to resolving security issues (see this year's Defcon talk about BSD vulnerabilities - OpenBSD is at present the only one to have resolved all open issues and it took only a couple of weeks)
3) the community writes the best tools.
4) it has the best documentation I've seen for a project this large, similar, but superior to the Arch Wiki.
That works sometimes, and when it works I can usually get X unstuck without a reboot. But sometimes X gets stuck in a way that makes me unable to switch to another virtual console. Then ssh becomes my only recourse, and the only way to kill X is to reboot.

For better or worse, inflation is a primary tool the government and banks use to influence their citizens' behavior. Without inflation there is no incentive to spend your money and recycle it back into the system. It can also be used to soften currency fluctuations.

That being said, if governments used cryptocurrency it opens a lot of interesting avenues for them. Tax fraud might be a thing of the past, people could be forced to register their wallets publicly, better protections for lost wallets. Inflation could be exchanged for variably adding/removing coins from the market.

Overall governments need to be able to manipulate currency, or all their citizens are totally exposed to the global market. Imagine if you had to check your savings account multiple times per day to watch it fluctuate thousands of "dollars" in value.
Of course, this is all horribly confounded by the fact of the decision. A person who switches from being a doctor to being a bartender is almost certainly non-standard among both doctors and bartenders; it would be tough to distinguish the impact of the changed career from the impact of "being the sort of person who makes this switch".
> Throwing a fit because of "honesty" in game pre-marketing is sort of like asking for your money back because a movie didn't fulfill the expectations set by the trailer. Yeah, good luck with that at the multiplex, but also keep in mind that many people got their money back for the game.

These aren't the same though. Trailers can be used to evoke a certain sense about a movie that is disingenuous such as masking a drama as a comedy by splicing together the funny parts. You'll still get those funny parts, but they just weren't what you expected. A director can say that they'll guarantee you'll laugh until you cry, but that's all subjective. What happened with No Man's Sky was just outright lying.

This would be akin to someone saying that some actor gave the performance of a lifetime in the movie, but the actor never had anything to do with the movie. Does that mean I can't enjoy the movie? Nope. I might still love it, but that person still lied to get me to see the movie. That's what they did with No Man's Sky - gave false information about a game's features that was still good for what it was.

For what it's worth, I heard that people who didn't follow the hype-train liked the game. Those accounts of the gameplay all praised it.
That is the point of experiments.

This is exactly why those who haven't lived in poverty might want to hold off from telling poor people what to do.

I can make lousy economic decisions because I'm not poor. When I mess up, I can say "oops", and not worry much about the money.

Poor people don't have that luxury. Sure, some also make lousy decisions. But most have to be very careful with their money, because they don't have much.

For example, is it more worthwhile to fix the car, get dental work done, or feed the children?

That's the sort of calculation I never want to worry about, but which poor people have to consider all the time.
> Christianity is an "exclusive" religion

To the extent that this is true generally of Christians (even by the narrow definition as those groups holding to the doctrines espoused in the Apostle's and Nicene Creeds, which excludes many groups that describe themself as Christian) it is arguaby only trivially true. While there are certainly Christians who hold to a narrow view of exclusivity where only that which is within the visible bounds of the Christian Church can be holy and only those people within it's visible bounds may be saved, many (and the official doctrine of the largest organized Christian group) do not.
I always wondered how LEGO managed to grow so much - their products are too good! They spend an insane amount of work on quality and durability of their pieces. When I was a kid, I had pieces that were nearly 20 years old that still looked and acted brand new. There's now an entire secondary market of used pieces since they basically last forever. Why buy new unless you are looking for some new, gimmicky set?

When I was a kid, I also took a book and a small set of bricks everywhere I went. These days, all I ever see kids have are tablets. When I do see toys, they are cheaper, more gimmicky, and more likely to be designed to sit on a shelf than to play with.
I don't understand your point here? Yes banks try to benefit themselves as far as checking goes. But as long as you only spend what you have in your account, (as in available funds), then you will never have a scenario like this. I have never had uncertainty in the availability of funds, (could be just that my bank says "available funds" as well as "current balance"), and it is almost always better to be late on your bill payment than to overdraft or write a bad check.

To you second point, I wasn't referring to childcare in general, just in these specific instances, (e.g. earlier start time for commute and periodic grocery shopping).

All of these apologias seem to depend on the argument that the abuse victim doesn't know when someone else watches the video, and therefore suffers no injury.

Now, they may not know in real time, but yeah they can find out. The contents of child-porn collections are documented in the legal proceedings of court cases, for example. People who consume child porn have social networks of their own, and discuss and comment upon that material in the same way that enthusiasts do anything else on the internet. And as I've mentioned, access to child porn collections/communities is often purchased by the submission of new material, both to bind the would-be viewer with ties of shared criminal liability and to feed the demand for novelty. Thus, the commoditization of child porn incentivizes the production of more of it.

> To be sure, it could very well be that they had some "come to Jesus" moment and decided that's what they really wanted to do in life, and it increased their general happiness and willingness to put effort into all their other relationships. But that, I would think, is the exception, not the rule.

And even this would make them a non-central example of physicians (and bartenders). Most doctors are heavily committed after 10+ years of education; many bartenders are not "living their dream" and expect to move on. Someone who willingly makes that swap because they've found their true calling is incomparable to the average for both careers.

The cost of Lego pieces has tracked with inflation since at least the 1980's. The going rate of a piece is ~$.10. IMO, what you are seeing isn't that Lego's are getting more expensive relative to their past prices, they are getting more expensive relative to other forms of entertainment. A simple example is videogames have generally cost $50-$60 since the 1980's which means that they are relatively cheaper today.
