Can you guess the theme of this playlist which ranges from pop to metalcore?

Also this contains a song that is not in Google Play (Erykah Badu)  What do you see?  Is it playable?  (Hope not, that would put us on par with Grooveshark...)

Haven't used chrome jank tools for a while, wow.  Loving the paint and compositing feedback.

Replacing goog-inline-block with 'display: inline-block' is helping.  Removing useless positioning helps too.  Have a few CLs out to get rid of some of the boxes below...

Looks like we're not quite  #onegoogle  for image filtering.

TL;DR -- SIte displays porn content from freebase/knowledge graph that violates AdSense ToS.


_A quite strange thing happened recently. I have a news website and I'm using Freebase API to provide readers for more in depth information about the content of news articles.  The site runs Google's AdSense ads._

_Following the publication of a local news, on the sidebar containing text and images downloaded through Freebase API, an image of a woman with her bare breasts was displayed._

_Well, that image, made available by Freebase, which is a Google product, was considered obscene by the team of AdSense (also a Google product), which decided to suspend the service. A sort of vicious circle of Google, exercising a censorship on itself._

_Given the impossibility to make Google people understand that the visualization of such kind of images was occasional and not intentional, I'd prefer to avoid such problems in the future. Hence, I'd like to know whether there's some way, when using Freebase API, to filter out images considered obscene by the AdSense team._

Is there anything we can do to help hacked Wordpress installations that have pharma ads?  As you can see below it's impacting sharing to G+:

https://spore.corp.google.com/#!s=d070e83cd3d49444

This has been going on for *years*, I've personally had to burn down and rebuild many WP blogs for friends.  (and multiple times due to backdoors).   (Read more about it at http://blog.aw-snap.info/2011/02/pharmacy-hack.html)

What can we do?  Are we still running netagent to detect spam cloaking?  Can we detect spammy links/text and refetch?  Should Google+ ignore spore and just refetch using it's own user-agent (ick!)?

Can GFEs do more than basic redirects?  Like mod_rewrite?  It seems like it'd be super useful.  For example:

  https://www.google.com/buzz/post?url=xxx&hl=l

could be redirected to

  https://plus.google.com/share?url=xxx&hl=l

It appears the the path_redirects only allow for path->absolute redirections..  Happy to be proven wrong.

If you hit a bug too many time your IP gets DoS-blocked which makes Google+ unusable.  Ouch...

The funny thing is that the /jserror and /reporthttp4xxerror endpoints also end up getting blocked so our backends won't allow us to detect this behavior.

Is there an easy way to null-mock an RPC interface in Java/Apps-Framework?  I couldn't figure it out with some time in code search

I'm seeing people using easymock and mockito to do this, but that feels wrong (RPCs don't return null!) and also means that these testing frameworks might find their way into production code if we're not careful.

Here's an example:

 import com.google.ccc.groups.index.server.api.proto2api.CommonGroupsApi.CommonGroupsIndexSyncService;
 ...
 @Mock
 CommonGroupsIndexSyncService.ClientInterface mockSyncServer;
...
    bind(CommonGroupsIndexSyncService.ClientInterface.class)
        .toInstance(mockSyncServer);

Perhaps we could have a stub implementation that could do the following:

1) Implement returning defaultValue for all requests.
2) Implement returning RpcException for all requests.

Extra credit for the following wrapper class that would allow for injecting behavior into the pre-rpc/post-rpc phases:

  public class ForwardingRpcClientInterface {
     ...
     pubilc T delegate() {}

    beforeRpc(...);
    afterRpc(...);

    public Object invoke(...) throws Throwable {
      // defaults to forwarding to delegate
    }
  }

With something like this you could implement a client-side cache or short-circuit requests here.  You could also implement the defaultValue/RpcException classes based on this.

Everyone.  Please add sensible canonicals.
- Especially if you have a 'enable SSL' bit.
- or if you have content that spans multiple domains
- or if you respond to /foo and /foo/ without a 301 redirect on one of them.

I've noticed two canonicalization issues (project hosting and sites) in the past few days.  I'm guessing there are many more out there..
