My question is primarily concerned with making a CV.

Normally under the Language section we list the individual programming Languages we've used. For example, C#, C++, PHP.

Under the Platform section we can list the various operating systems and devices.

Under which category would Web Services/Windows Services fall? My point is these are not platforms by themselves and surely they aren't a language.

Is there any common term that can be used to describe these?

Why does my laptop resume immediately after suspend?

I seem to be having some problem with suspend mode. Every time I try to suspend my laptop, it just locks the screen. Or maybe it successfully suspends just to resume only an instant after. What could cause such a behaviour? I'm running 32-bit Ubuntu 12.04 with the 3.2.0-25 kernel on a HP dv5-1178er… >>> More
