nodataon Google will eventually open the Google Now API to app developers

If they could let app developers decide on which notifications appear on the home screen, I wouldn't need automatic anything.

Take Llama for example. Llama manages some settings on my phone, but the only way to keep it from being killed is to display a permanent notification. This has the added benefit of it being easy to see which Location I am at by swiping down the notification bar, but I never need this information on the home screen.

nodataon LibreSSL 2.1.5 released

This comment is why we need a "DERAIL" button here. To split it into a different area.

The comment is perhaps valid, but deflects from the discussion. Yet here it is sitting at the top of the comments page. Not ideal.

nodataon Julian Assange case: Sweden offers to question him in UK

> The 'statute of limitations' for a crime needs to be much longer than the crime's potential maximum sentence.

So if someone leaves Sweden for (more than?) the length of their sentence, that is comparable to carrying out their sentence?

nodataon Neighbors Got Together to Buy Vacant Buildings. Now, Renting to Bakers and Brewers

vacant vacant retail property tax everyone!

nodataon Neighbors Got Together to Buy Vacant Buildings. Now, Renting to Bakers and Brewers

People who are actively using their property would not pay the vacant retail property tax.

nodataon Neighbors Got Together to Buy Vacant Buildings. Now, Renting to Bakers and Brewers

This isn't about forcing people from their property.

This is about a building with a certain code (retail) which has a particular purpose, and that purpose isn't being fulfilled. Taxing to change this mis-behavior is good.
