Certainly not glibc. Apple has a history of hostility towards the GNU project, but glib-2.0 is similarly out, as GTK on OS-X is an abomination. I think Mark Zuckerberg simply doesn't know what he's talking about here.
How does it know I'm the same person? I tried from two different locations with IP addresses on two different ISPs, it is always returning the same IP from both locations. From a third location on an AWS instance though, it returns the same list of 5 IP addresses that 4.2.2.4 returns from all 3 locations.
The performance may not be great for busy sites like youtube.
If I look up m.youtube.com, @8.8.8.8 returns me a different address every time I run the query, spreading the load across multiple servers. @1.1.1.1 returns the same address every time, so that server is going to end up overloaded. Both are directing me to a local server, which is good (but this may be handled by the routing tables rather than DNS).
I always thought the sole use was to get around goatse filters. But apparently there are inexplicably popular internet services that limit you to the amount of text that could fit in a 1990's SMS message, so people use them to save space for their pointless drivel.
Probably they will go back to claiming that their cars do not meet the definition of autonomous. But this time Arizona won't be so keen to offer them a safe space from those regulation-loving Californians.
I just hadn't heard that particular statistic before
You must be new here. The 13 miles between human interventions statistic is on every Uber or autonomous driving related thread on Slashdot since Uber first started its testing.
Or... 98% of Facebook employees already deleted it, since they know how creepy it is for their employer to be tracking them in that way. The other 2% are janitorial staff.
Mine has "Location inferred from IP address" up until mid 2016, that is logging in exclusively from web browsers. I'd expect that if you were using the app, and had given it location permissions, it would have snarfed that as well..
* No web tracking history
Not web tracking per se, but they have a full record of which ads you have clicked on (mine has about 6 records over 8 years, all of which I suspect were accidental slips of the mouse).
I had it for about 6 months in 2011, before tracking battery drain to it. I think it has probably improved since then, but I got used to checking facebook via the web page on my own terms, rather than getting spammed with notifications all day. Then I noticed them trying to push me back to the app, first by taking Messaging away from the mobile web interface, and more recently by popping up messages about my friends posting time-limited stories that you need the app to view. When they started that tactic, I took it as a sign that the app was doing something nefarious, so it just made me more determined to avoid it.
Yes. Back in the day we called it "trial and error". It is the most unscientific approach to solving problems that you can get. But computers have the advantage that doing it a million times to come up with something reasonable is feasible.
150ft is still less than 3 seconds at 38mph. On a perfectly dry road, you need about 75 feet to stop from that speed once the brakes are applied, so you better react within the first 1.5s. That is about average (reaction times range from around 0.8 to 2.5 seconds), so she has a 50/50 chance with a human driver (though probably a lot of the 50% who still hit her would reduce their speed enough to only injure her).
Why does the FCC have Republican seats? The working parts of the government should not be concerned with party affiliation, they should be about getting on and doing their job, taking directions from the elected representatives - leave the party partisanship to those we can vote out every 4 years.
It is reasonable to say that the law has a problem. In the normal scheme of things, we would wait for somebody to actually try to sue someone else for calling them from a smartphone, and let the courts decide the scope that the law should be applied through case law. But as we are under the current regime, if it is a consumer protection law, it needs to be ripped up completely, with no replacement.
That joke became obsolete when somebody wrote a vi emulation for Emacs.
I think somebody had already written a vi emulation for Emacs long before anyone came up with that joke. Emacs today ships with at least 4 vi emulations. The original vi-mode seems to be of unknown origin, with the last change made in 1987.
A good way to find where a connection is being slowed is to use MTR, or on Windows WinMTR. It's a combination of ping and traceroute that can show where the network becomes slow, or error rates become high between you are the server you are using.

It works fine in Chrome too if you enable the "Desktop site" setting.
He just got married though, doesn't that make him a citizen?
No. You don't get citizenship by marrying (at least in NZ).

Yes, he went up 1875 feet and the Earth still looked flat from there, as anyone who has been to the top of a moderately sized hill can tell you.
Unless an inspector comes on board. Then you're well and truly in the system.
It's a fairly old technique.

A warrant to search Emerdata would probably turn up all those boxes that were carried out in the past few days.

Developed countries get at least 4 weeks vacation, and work 35 hour weeks.
Trump has sympathy for Putin, as just like Trump, Putin has to deal with Russians meddling in his election too.

The solution proposed by *Bayer* is aspirin.
Or in these days of opiate overprescription where people want something a little stronger, Bayer Heroin(TM).

Implementing vim within Emacs is easy. Erik Naggum did it with just one line of elisp.
