Feedback from my wife who doesn't follow many people.

- didn't like having followers show up in the list of people.  She had created circles for design/art/music but they were not set to 'Following'.  I think we should ask users to check this on startup.  (I'm assuming that following-only circles are not used for hangouts)

- She saw someone she didn't recognize and from a following circle.  Her first choice was to remove the person from her circles.  That did not remove the person from the chat roster. How does Babel sync circle members and the chat roster?  ANything I can tell her? (She reloaded, logged-out, logged-in) etc...

Compiler experts:

The JS style guide mentions that UPPER_CASE implies @const-- however when I try compiling this code using


  /**  @type{number}
   *@const*/
  var FOO = 1;
  FOO = 2;

it fails, but

  /**@type{number} */
  var FOO = 1;
  FOO = 2;

succeeds

Oddly enough this succeeds as well, which I would expect to work..
  /**@type{number}@const*/
  var FOO = 1;
  FOO = 2;

Any ideas?  These tests were done with http://closure-compiler.appspot.com -- I have not tested using google3 (yet)  Just wanted to make sure that the style guide meshes with the way the compiler treats things..

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+:

http://presidiosocialclub.com/
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.

Just like most of us keep our money in a bank/credit union, most of us should keep our data in a trusted place and only carry around what we need at a given moment.
