Listening to the new Deltron 3030 Album. I'm not disappointed.
Folks in the Bay Area can catch an in-store appearance at Amoeba records in San Francisco today at 5pm.

TAP submit speedup #protip
- You mail a CL
- The presubmit automatically starts a TAP run.
- You get an email with the results.
- You did *not* change the CL after you mailed it.
If all of the above is true, use the TAP base with *--rerun* when submitting to save time. The base is in the email TAP sends you and it looks like this:
OCL:53489329:BASE:53489326:1380560146993

Here's an interesting site documenting a startup's move from San Francisco to Oakland.
Here's an interesting site documenting a startup's move from San Francisco to Oakland.
That's a really great site, thanks for sharing. I know that folks are concerned -- and rightly so -- about rents going if tech companies move over here, but I'd say the positives far outweigh the negatives. Welcome to the sunny side, Clef!
Yep, very true... but I'm still of the mindset that Oakland needs all the income it can get, and if the price of that is an increase in rents, well...
Then again, I'm not renting, so it's easy for me to say that. :P
Didn't mean to turn the discussion about the Oakland.is site into a forum on housing prices. That site has a lot of other interesting bits, such as when the writers realize that moving here means less focus on VC funding & more emphasis on product quality & usability. Well worth a read.
This is going to be a huge, positive change.

Been enjoying sludge-free french press coffee ever since we replaced our old Bodum press with the new Espro press. It uses double gold filters to make a truly smooth brew. Highly recommended.
Here's nifty demo from the folks at Tested and you can find them at Williams-Sonoma
Have you tried the Aero press?
Scott McMullan -- haven't tried the Aero press yet so I can't say how it compares..
I'll try to remember to bring my aero by for you to test! It's been going unused of late as I've been eliminating caffeine as a test...
gold filters? Why gold? That seems like snake oil to me. (fine sure - but gold?!)

Protip: Use Optional#asSet() to populate collections from optional values.
Was annoyed with lots and lots of code that looks like this:
Optional<Foo> foo = getFoo();
if (foo.isPresent()) {
collection.add(foo.get());
}
Turns out there's asSet which lets you write code like this:
collection.addAll(getFoo().asSet());

Hi
Joslyn Biever, here's the event I was talking about. Mary Grove and Steve Grove are doing great work with Google+ for entrepreneurs (see )
[2nd time around, this time, not public (!) Shouldn't be posting after midnight....]

An amazing day underway at CoCo at Google for Entrepreneurs youth training day. 75 impressive teens here from the STEPUP program. So inspired by the talent and passion in the room.
Greetings Googlers & Gophers!
Greetings Googlers & Gophers!
The U of MN Engineering meetup was great fun. It was nice to meet other Alumni and learn more about the great things going on back in Minnesota.
Googlers - I don't have all of your non-work accounts here, please feel free to follow me and I'll tag/mention your accounts here.
Gophers - If you ever need help with Google+ you can feel free to contact me.

How to make your java *testing* rules test-only.
Here's a crude script you can use to automatically set testonly=1 on _testing_ targets that qualify (and tells you why others cannot be testonly) If there's interest I'd be happy to clean this up and put it somewhere...
DEPS=
for XX in ; do
DEPENDS_ON=
echo "PROCESSING - "
TESTONLY_NUMDEPS=1
if [ == 1 ]; then
buildozer 'set testonly 1'
buildozer fix
echo "ADDED testonly=1 to target "
else
echo "FAILED to add testonly=1 for target "
echo ""
fi
done

Today I tried this stream and a few others with my Costar and each one had no audio after 5 seconds.
Matt Lane -- had the no-audio thing too. In my case the Youtube volume was muted. I had to turn it up using the teeny-tiny volume control at the bottom of the vid. weird.

Intrigued about what they'll come up with in the follow on episodes.
No spoilers please...
Looking forward to this!
And the initial episode (linked above) played flawlessly on Google TV
Watched when was on ITV(UK) was good, isn't there a us version in production now?
Mike Wilde yes, it is being remade for a US audience. According to this article:

it appears that filming will start in January.

Not addressed: where did that rogue UPDATE come from?
Takeaway: make nice with your hosting company -- they might save your bacon at some point.
I read it that "the bug" referred to in this sentence was the cause of the rogue UPDATE: "I located the bug, which turned out to be a small line of code I forgot to check regarding The Great YouTube Debacle of 2013".
It also looks like they had "a backup".
Yes, a single copy which is overwritten each time isn't quite the meaning of "backup" that's needed.

While the activity log at is nice for keeping track of posts you +1'd it contained too little information to be really useful, so I whipped up a chrome extension that rectifies this "issue" by fetching profile picture and a small text snippet for each of the posts via the Google+ API. This only works for public posts but from my experiments it seems that only public posts ever get added to the activities anyway. The extension still needs a bit of testing and clean-up, but I'll open-source it soon :)
PS. I've all sent feedback that this should be the default behaviour without the need for extra scripts :)
I got an email from the Google + platform team saying that there was a problem with our implementation.
I got an email from the Google + platform team saying that there was a problem with our implementation. The email however didn't contain any specifics, just some links to common issues. I've spotted 2 small things that might be the issue. Thing is I do not want to address what might be an issue only to have it turn out that I missed something for fixed something that wasn't broken.
So the question is where do I go / who do I talk to to get specifics?
Little known fact. All royal births require launchcal approval.
_It doesn't look like we're going to get launch calendar approval before EOD today. API team, please grant 100K QPD for now, to ensure that we do not block the birth of the Royal Baby._

Juhan says hi!
Here's my neighbor Juhan. He's a Google fan that suffers from Macular Degeneration. Every other week I help him with his old Windows XP rig that somehow resets the font sizes back to stock.
He's still on AOL, which doesn't support larger font sizes. So when he receives a "letter" he opens it, selects Forward and uses the message editor to boost the font size. He tried switching to Comcast (Zoho?) Mail but it was a big fail.
Otherwise he does pretty well with video sites, Newspapers and Skype. Watching him use technology has been very instructive. I learned a lot watching him cope with various web sites.
Despite not using our products he's a big fan of Google and wishes us all the best!
