  Most common problems foreigners face in their first week in China (2026): Mobile payments China is almost completely cashless. Alipay & WeChat Pay are everywhere. Setting them up with a foreign card can be painful (freezes, verification fails, some shops reject foreign-linked accounts). Cash is only a backup. Internet Google, Instagram, WhatsApp, YouTube, Gmail… all blocked. You must install a good VPN before you arrive. Google Maps also doesn’t work properly here. Language barrier English is rare outside big hotels and top tourist spots. Ordering food, asking directions, or using apps becomes a daily struggle. Getting around Train tickets are strictly name-matched to your passport. You need Amap (Gaode) or Apple Maps. Didi is essential but depends on payment apps. Small but annoying extras

  I think Alphabet ($GOOGL) can double again within 1–2 years. Why? - Stock is down 20% from its high because investors dislike its ~$200B AI investment. - Q2’26 Revenue grew 24% YoY vs 13% for the S&P 500. - Google Cloud grew 82% YoY, with profit more than tripling. - Open weight AI (Kimi K3, etc.) should increase demand for Google Cloud. - AI is being integrated across Search, YouTube, Gmail, Android, Chrome and Maps. I modeled three scenarios: • Worst case: $241 (-24%) • Base case: $554 (+73%) • Best case: $771 (+141%) The market is pricing AI investment as a risk. I see it as the reason to buy. Not investment advice. What do you think?

  @CleansedTweets They froze you because you opened another account? I have multiple Gmail accounts for different activities...never an issue. Use Google Workspace. As for Proton. I have an email account, but it's clunky compared to Gmail. Not really suitable for business. I do use their VPN though.

  @Innovashift @chasingsreams @tarunvats33 Can confirm. They straight up told me that they could not reproduce it. I once reported that the search inside Gmail is not visible with the broken color palette and rather than fixing the color palette they made the search different color somehow 😭 and marked it as fixed.

  @benln Hi Ben! I've been building Mitamaton, a native iOS agent app. The closest reference points are Pokemon and Tamagotchi rather than a chat box. You start with one free Tama and one free shell for it to live in. The screenshot is the Penguin shell, which I'm making exclusive to beta testers. Underneath the character, it's a real chief of staff. It pushes me a brief every morning, triages my gmail, and drafts replies in my voice. I use it every day, which is how most of the rough edges got found. It's for people who want what ai agents can do but have no interest in learning to use one. Making it intuitive enough that you never think about it is where nearly all my time has gone, and it's the actual hard part. And for agent native people, I have an MCP. Claude code, Codex, and Cursor of course can push a project's todos straight into my Mitamaton, and they show up on my dashboard. Beta next month, aiming to release in September when iOS 27 ships. I have the Foundation Models entitlement, so I'm testing whether part of the pipeline can run on device to bring the per-user cost down. Happy to send a TestFlight invite when the beta goes out.

  Tech people, IT experts, or anyone who's good with Gmail, I need your help. A couple of months ago, I started receiving verification codes and login requests for accounts I wasn't trying to access. Microsoft, Facebook, and a few others kept sending me sign in codes even when I wasn't using my laptop. It looked like someone was trying to get into my accounts. I immediately changed my email password. While checking my Gmail, I also found the Manage Subscriptions section and unsubscribed from a lot of mailing lists because I thought it would make my inbox cleaner. Since then, I've noticed something strange. I'm no longer receiving emails from some companies that I actually need. The biggest issue is Fidelity Bank. I've completely stopped receiving their email alerts. I've been to the bank. They confirmed my email is correctly linked. They even removed and added it again, but nothing has changed. I've also had the same problem with a couple of prop firms. Their support teams have resent emails multiple times, but I never receive them. I've tried subscribing again through their websites, but it still doesn't work. Could unsubscribing in Gmail have caused this, or is something else going on? Has anyone experienced this before? How did you fix it? I'd really appreciate any help.

  I've used Gmail since it launched, back in 2004 or so. And every single day, without fail, it nags me to buy more storage. So instead, I bought my own server and moved all my documents there. That's the files and photos sorted. Then there's the email itself. I run a strict inbox-zero policy. Yes, I do keep folders — but only for the emails that actually matter. Everything else gets deleted, not hoarded. Even the trash too. The truth is simple: if you actually manage your inbox instead of letting it pile up, you will never need to pay Google a rupee for extra space.

  Tried out the new chatgpt voice, pretty impressed. It started when I was reviewing some upcoming expenses with my partner on my investment condo. I decided to just open up it up talk to it like you would a human assistant. Told it I wanted an expense tracker we could update through the year and could it just go into my gmail and look up all our conversations for this year and build it. It did that no problem, and also asked it to login to Wells Fargo and grab all the transactions and mate it up to all our expense categories, make a pivot breakdown by category, etc. Np, and it proactively found a few that it couldn't determine on its own for human review and I told it to refer to CPA conversations and my tax docs from last year to figure it out. All this just by having some easy convo over my airpods like you would delegate to somebody in your office. Total time was 15 mins while I was just working on chores around the house - I would have probably spent an hour or two doing this myself in front of the computer. Then just told it to draft an email and attach it so I could review before sending.

  Beware of installing free version of @grok on your phone. You could inadvertently sign up for $299.99 month Grok Heavy without realizing it and @xai wont do jack for you. I thought I was merely signing into my free Grok account by going through Gmail login. Horrible support.

  Around 2024 a young boy I use to know reached out to me on whatsapp and was like boss are you still in Ghana please I will like you to help me escape from where I am in Ghana, I asked him what’s happening and if he’s safe. He said he’s safe just that he left his parents in Nigeria and came to Ghana for HK. That ever since he came , they’ve turned him into their errand boy, their dry cleaner and slave., the worst part of it all before he eats food it’s usually 4pm and that’s all he will have for the day till the next day simply because he hasn’t Cashout. He also said his boss seized his phone,that the only reason he’s able to have my number is because he had to login his gmail into the phone they gave to him which they only use WiFi for. He barely sleeps as they are always online all day and night., whoever sleeps will be dealt with except for the new taker’s that are allowed to sleep. I asked him how does he plan to escape, he said he has 100k naira in his bank account but he wont be able to withdraw it till he gets to nigeria with his atm. So i reached out to a cross-country biker, i met in 2017 off which we became friends because i usually send him SportyBet codes, explained everything to him and he asked if the boy can find his way to Aflao border, i called the boy he said yes. The next day he got to the border, the biker man crossed him to Togo, talked to a taxi driver to please take him to seme border. That when he gets to seme he will pay him, the driver agreed. Soon as they got to seme, the boy was able to withdraw cash and pay the driver and also pay the biker. That was how he went back to Enugu and washed his hands from anything fraud! If you’re ever having that mindset of going to join HK, please don’t instead go and learn mechanic, barber or plumbing. HK is modern form of slavery, you’re actually working for the boss. If you’re not a smoker once you get there you must learn how to smoke, womanize and also join cult!

  @JackEllis @Fastmail All inbox providers are having these issues. There's a lot of backchannel conferences where they are trying to tackle it. It's hard because lots are rotating through Gmail accounts/IPv6s which is harder to block. Cold emailing has gotten really sophisticated now.

  The promotions is not just a deliverability problem, so the DNS fix ALONE won't move it. (I have been using Kit for 2 years) What decides weather Gmail trusts you enough not to keep you out of promotions: - SPF - DKIM - DMARC The tab your emails land in is a separate decision, and Gmail makes it based on your content and on how each person has treated your mail before. What usually (WILL) put you in Promotions: • Blasting the whole list at once after a long silence (this is your first email, so this may apply here). • Image headers, buttons, 3+ links in one email. • Subscribers who have never opened you before (at some point, you should segment your list and only send to those who open. • Sales words in the subject line What Actually Helps: - Send to your most engaged people (after studying the list for, say 30 days), then widen out by sending to the who list periodically (say after a period of 2 - 3 weeks). - Strip the design. Plain text, one link, written like you're talking to one person. - Ask for a reply in the first email. A reply is the strongest signal Gmail has and it teaches the inbox you're a person. - Say this plainly in the P.S. — "if you received this in your promotions/spam drag this to Primary and hit reply with a yes (so you can see my next email where I show you XYZ)." Also, Promotions isn't a death sentence. Plenty of my emails sit there and still get opened. What kills your 10k list is going quiet after a few sends. Keep going. 👍🏾

  I could probably get this working with another 10–15 minutes but that is not the point. I am already switching between a bunch of other tasks. I do not want to spend attention on OAuth client types, test users, redirect URIs, consent screens, and token files just to let an agent access Gmail and Drive. I am already signed into one Google account. The CLI should recognize that, open one approval screen, and return a working token. Neither I nor the agent should need to read documentation for basic onboarding. The issue is that I have to think about it at all. A CLI built for agents should make authentication almost invisible.

  @ylecun @nicochristie People don’t choose iOS or proprietary models because of their closedness. They are ordinary people who cannot — or simply do not want to — spend time managing compute (iOS) or approximations of intelligence (models). They want it done by someone else, and are therefore willing to pay. Revenue is the outcome of a service: someone provides value by helping you get things done. In the case of iOS, that service is managing compute resources. Users pay for that and if they believe they can manage better themselves and are willing to take on the effort to maintain it, they can always switch to Android because of its exsitence. In the end, a more a philosophical stance: how should human society be organized, centralized or individualistic? Governance exist to hold people together (so we don’t end up killing each other just because goals differ and communication is inefficiently low-dimensional) and to enable further exploration of a unified goal. But managed by whom? iOS believes they can manage better than the mass population. Android doesn’t even argue on that axis. It simply claims you can do what you want — freedom as the form factor. SMTP is open, yet most people still choose Gmail. They choose to have the service done by Google rather than setting up their own email server using open protocols. Using revenue to measure open source versus closed source is therefore meaningless. The better metric is whether freedom is safeguarded as a genuine choice — not whether freedom is actually exercised by everyone. That's the value of open source, as an option keeping the entire system permissionless. Yet promoting open source is another form of elite protection for the masses: the majority need not exercise the choice, and may not even fully understand its trade-offs. The value lies in the fact that the door remains open.
