I know this is probably a dumb question but, do I lose anything by re-sizing in 8-Bit vs 16-Bit mode? I always edit in 16-Bit, convert to 8, and then save to JPEG/re-size and print in 8-Bit. Thanks in advance.

Yes. 8 bits per channel ;)

8bpc is fine for "smaller" color spaces such as sRGB or AdobeRGB, provided you won't be doing any large luminosity / color edits.

In the link from my sig, there's a link on 8 vs. 16bpc.

No, no significant loss. Resizing doesn't involve any tonal shifts and can be done without fear in 8 bit.
