Site search within Google Search Results page

Just saw another feature on Google search results page. I searched for LonelyPlanet and the first result which usually gives bunch of options related to a result, now shows another option: search that site from results page directly.

I repeated the experiment with National Geographic and Discovery Channel and got the search box, but it didn't appear for BBC, Rediff, Hindustan Times, TCS, Animal Planet and Al Jazeera.

Is it only for travel and wildlife sites?

How to upload to Google Cloud Storage buckets using CURL

Signed URLs are pretty nifty feature given by Google Cloud Platform to let anyone access your cloud storage (bucket or any file in the bucket) without need to sign in. Official documentation gives step by step details as to how to read/write to the bucket using gsutil or through a program. This article will tell you how to upload a file to the bucket using curl so that any client which doesn't have cloud SDK installed can do this using a simple script. This command creates a signed PUT URL for your bucket. gsutil signurl -c 'text/plain' -m PUT serviceAccount.json gs://test_bucket_location Here is my URL: https://storage.googleapis.com/test_sl?GoogleAccessId=my-project-id@appspot.gserviceaccount.com&Expires=1490266627&Signature=UfKBNHWtjLKSBEcUQUKDeQtSQV6YCleE9hGG%2BCxVEjDOmkDxwkC%2BPtEg63pjDBHyKhVOnhspP1%2FAVSr%2B%2Fty8Ps7MSQ0lM2YHkbPeqjTiUcAfsbdcuXUMbe3p8FysRUFMe2dSikehBJWtbYtjb%2BNCw3L09c7fLFyAoJafIcnoIz7iJGP%2Br6gAUkSnZXgbVjr6wjN%2FIaudXIqA

Running Apache Beam pipeline using Spark Runner on a local standalone Spark Cluster

The best thing about Apache Beam ( B atch + Str eam ) is that multiple runners can be plugged in and same pipeline can be run using Spark, Flink or Google Cloud Dataflow. If you are a beginner like me and want to run a simple pipeline using Spark Runner then whole setup may be tad daunting. Start with Beam's WordCount examples which help you quickstart with running pipelines using different types of runners. There are code snippets for running the same pipeline using different types of runners but here the code is running on your local system using Spark libraries which is good for testing and debugging pipeline. If you want to run the pipeline on a Spark cluster you need to do a little more work! Let's start by setting up a simple standalone single-node cluster on our local machine. Extending the cluster is as easy as running a command on another machine, which you want to add to cluster. Start with the obvious: install spark on your machine! (Remember to have Java a

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Malformed \uxxxx encoding

I was getting this exception during build while running ant. Googling didn't help much and I was flummoxed because the same code was running fine till now. My code reads a text file and does some operations on the basis of values read. It was only when I saw the text files I understood the error. I had copied the text in wordpad and saved it as .txt file. Wordpad had put lot of formatting information before and after the content. Also there was "\par" after every line, which was giving this error. So moral of the story: if you get this exception check your properties file (or any other file that your code might be reading.)
