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...)

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._

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!)?

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

Anyone know how to debug gmail issues? I don't know which dogfood just bit me.
All of a sudden I saw my mail in my inbox dissappearing 4-5 per second inside the offline gmail chrome app. First time I ever saw the 'happy sun' image which I assume is what you get when your inbox is empty.
Not sure if it's the Chrome app or the dogfood android or something else.
All inboxen are affected back to Feb 19.
Also if you sent me email and need a response ping me on chat until I sort this out...

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.

It's 2013 -- why do we still have problems with hotspots in Bigtable/Kansas?
I have not looked into the backend design, but this seems like something that's been solved in the past.
Do we not have
- Dynamic-sized replicas (add more read-only replicas for hot keys)?
- What about adaptive sharding/rebalancing (rehash based on usage)?
- Hierarchical storage? (automatically move dormant accounts to older/slower hardware, move back when reactivated)
- Or... the ability to manually move a single hot key to it's own instance. (variant of adaptive sharding above)
I know about the stubby cacher and how that can help, but that seems like treating the sympton rather than the source of pain.
