Nice intro with TV static, but I do wonder if anyone born after 1990 knows what that is..
- Supports next/prev, but no pause
- Content is limited, not very customizable.
- No context cues presented, no intros/bumpers other than the initial splash screen.

Proposal: replace OWNERS with GUILD
format:
ldap skill-level
where skill-level is one of apprentice, crafter, journeyer, master and grandmaster
optionally allow 'retired' in front of the above.
And we could have languge-related GUILDs too, though I wouldn't call my readability review CL a _masterpiece_.....

When was the last time anyone ever changed an RPC deadline flag?
Can we get rid of all of them entirely now that deadline propagation is a thing and rpc services support a default deadline option?
rpc foo(FooRequest) returns (FooResult) {
option deadline = 5.0;
option fail_fast = true;
};

For a company born on the web we sure do an awful job marking up our sites with relevant data.
Almost all of the images on the new Sidewalk Labs site are transparent (see below). There is no schema.org, opengraph or other semantic markup.
I hate to add another step to launchcal, but cmon, this is embarrassing. The fix is easy:
- Save page as HTML in Chrome.
- Put page (and linked assets in some secret, yet public web site)
- Preview this on G+, Facebook, and Twitter at the very least.
- Use Webmaster Tools / Search Console to make sure that search knows about your domain and use tools within.

Google -Hospice- -Upstate Farm- Pasture Service
Hallway conversation with @104255968520200310944 and @101824307711135795640: wouldn't it be great if there was a way to export a dead service's data into an sstable and allow for deletion/takeout? That way you could turn down the service more easily and get rid of zombie code.
As you can see the naming quickly went to the morbid side.

So what are people using to get photos in from old-school cameras?
The Eye-Fi X2 is now basically useless for this:
- They used oauth 1 for their "PICASAWEB" upload feature. This is now broken.
- They used iPhoto APIs to upload photos. The new Apple Photos App doesn't have integration hooks, so again, nothing.
Their new offerings only upload to their own cloud, so I'm left with useless hardware. Yay progress.

Any reason to not get one of these?
This would replace a 40" Sony GTV. It's had a good run, but GPMAA is still slow and buggy, and the new Youtube app is a serious regression. And since Android TV doesn't support multiple users I can use the nexus player and my wife can use the built-in ATV functionality.
... and why is this already on sale?
... also lists amazon prime video -- wonder if that'll get released for nexus player?
... and Opera browser bundled? WAT?

#dailyoneliner - find targets affected by the files you're changing
Maybe there's a better way, but this works for me...
g4 whatsout | perl -pe 's,^.*google3,/,; s,/([^/]+)$,:,' | xargs blaze-bin/devtools/deps/depserver/query/depends_on -ds
You can then expand this to do other useful things:
| xargs blaze build
to build affected targets
| xargs unused_deps
to find unused deps

Trigger ACTION_SEND from Android Chrome? (with a photo?)
I know that chrome allows you to trigger specific intents (see linked page) But instead I just want to trigger ACTION_SEND with text and optional image pixels generated by the browser...

Dealing with the _"Help me with my website"_ question...
When people find out you're a Googler they often ask _"can you help me with my site"_? I mostly give some simple advice and leave it at that. This time is different.
But first.. a story.
My wife, Julie, fears dentists due to unfortunate childhood events. While on vacation she had some gum bleeding. Using Google Search I found Maisy, an oral surgeon, and her husband, Amir, an anesthesiologist. Together they did the impossible and got Julie the dental care she needed. She went above and beyond in so many ways.
Alas, there were complications on discharge. Despite a blood test only 10 days earlier her levels had dropped really low. Maisy and I talked a lot while we waited for the transfusion to complete in the ER. We spoke about how she and her husband started their practice and how they wanted to grow it. Many questions about online marketing came up. I said I would see what I could do. After everything I'd walk over glass for Maisy.
So....
*What's the best way to help?* I'm no expert, but I am acquainted with some non-google consultants I could engage. Looking for any advice or referrals, especially for people that deal with local.
Oh and if you need a dentist, it's well worth the trip. Great people, dog friendly, pleasant surroundings, and the most advanced dental technology.
