    I called her and asked her to search her Gmail for her JAMB login details. I noticed she was pressing the phone somehow, so I collected it from her. I pressed up; Gmail closed. I clicked on Gmail, and Calculator opened. The phone touch had spoiled.

    It’s funny to see how everyone was having a same problem - messy gmail inbox I thought I was the only one always running out of space in my gmail account But I never paid for extra space

    @iamSoftVina This issue likely stems from Gmail's aggressive spam filters or altered inbox rules triggered by the bulk unsubscribe action, which can temporarily flag or block legitimate senders as the account's email behavior profile shifts. - Recommended steps include checking spam/promotions tabs, adding key senders to contacts, reviewing filters and blocked lists in Gmail settings, and testing by requesting new verification emails from the affected companies. - grok Try and see

    But it will slow them down. The best practices are honed ones. Salted email is sorta okay for Gmail but I'm not sure if other providers allow that. Keeping your real name disassociated with your online profiles is a Best Practice.

    GROKBOT JUST MADE AI TEAMS STUPIDLY EASY TO BUILD. But after 20 minutes of testing it, I hit the problem that could kill the whole idea. Why Grokbot is interesting: → Telegram-style interface for managing entire AI teams → Give different bots different roles, including a CEO bot → Agents get their own computers in the cloud → Connect tools like Gmail with a couple of clicks → No Mac Mini, terminal setup, API gymnastics, or local model decisions Where it falls apart: ✓ My supposed week-long trial ran out of usage credits in roughly 20 minutes ✓ Computer use burned through tokens while struggling with a simple CAPTCHA ✓ You're currently locked into Grok rather than choosing Claude/local models ✓ It's not open source, so pricing, limits, and model access aren't under your control My current AI agent ranking: ClaudeBot: 3/10 looking back Hermes Agent: 6–7/10 Grokbot: 6/10 Grokbot wins on simplicity. Hermes wins on control. If Grokbot can fix the usage limits without destroying that simplicity, this gets VERY interesting.

    Tern sync used to take ~20 seconds. Now it's roughly one 🫡 The trick was asking for less. Before, every check would fetch folder lists, old threads and a pile of mailbox data that hadn't changed at all. Now Tern just asks "what's new?" It grabs the latest mail, pulls in what's needed and gets out of the way. The heavy stuff (folder structure, backfilling old mail) happens quietly in the background. It also adapts to what you're doing: Looking at it? Checks every 5 seconds Inactive tab? Slows down to save battery New mail mid-check? Checks again straight away Gmail, Outlook and IMAP all sync in parallel, so multiple accounts still feel like one inbox. Small change on paper. But the inbox finally feels alive 👀

    OPEN IT ON A PHONE Desktop Gmail ignores the code that makes email responsive. Your mobile layout works everywhere except one of the biggest inboxes on earth. TURN ON DARK MODE Some inboxes keep your colours. Some invert them. Some invert half. Your background and your text can move in opposite directions. CHECK YOUR IMAGES One wrong character in an image address and every recipient sees a broken box. Nobody tells you. The email just goes out broken. SEND IT ANYWAY Because the deadline was yesterday, and it looked fine in the preview.

    I need help from anyone who's knowledgeable about Gmail or email systems. A while ago, I started receiving Microsoft sign in verification codes for logins I never initiated. As a precaution, I changed my password and later cleaned up my Gmail by unsubscribing from a lot of email subscriptions. Ever since then, I've stopped receiving important emails from my bank and a few other companies. I've contacted their support teams, and they've confirmed everything is set up correctly on their end, but the emails still aren't reaching me. I've tried resubscribing where possible, but nothing has changed. Has anyone experienced something like this before or knows what could be causing it? I'd really appreciate any advice.

    I used to think “agents in group chats” were a gimmick. Now I think the bigger problem is that too much strategy still lives in my head, and too many useful skills are too messy or sensitive to share cleanly. That’s what changed my mind. I’m starting to think a multiagent should become the default workspace for our growth team. Not because Slack or gmail are unusable. They’re just very good at holding messages, and not that good at holding work. What I actually want is one place where people can @ my Codex directly to ask positioning and strategy questions. A lot of the time the problem is not execution. It’s that people are operating on slightly different versions of what I want. For example, yesterday my growth team Mengyao and Alyssa pulled me into a meeting to ask what I meant by doing a small creator push for Okeight. Actually they could just ask my codex That kind of nuance gets lost constantly if the only interface is “ask Monica in a meeting.” And honestly, I also forget to sync strategy changes fast enough. Sometimes I change my mind on priorities, or realize an angle is wrong, or want to shift the goal slightly, and I just forget to tell everyone in time. Then different people are working off different versions of the strategy. Nothing is fully broken, but the team drifts. I also want the group to automatically turn the past week of work into a real weekly report. I’ve tried asking people to write trackers before, and it’s painful for everyone. Not everyone is trained to produce polished internal docs, and more importantly, they shouldn’t have to spend time doing that just to prove work happened. What I actually want from a weekly report is: - what worked - what didn’t - what content performed unusually well - whose priorities are off - where output quality is weak - which direction feels wrong That should be inferred from the work, not manually reconstructed afterward. Then there’s the skill-sharing problem. Some of the most useful internal skills are hard to share directly because they expose too much. Sometimes sharing a deep skill means exposing keys. Sometimes it means exposing messy internal setup. Sometimes it’s just too complicated to package cleanly. I built a pretty complex video editing skill recently, and it made this very obvious. In theory I want that capability to be reusable. In practice, sharing it cleanly is hard, and sharing it carelessly is dangerous. I also keep running into a simpler but equally stupid problem: the context already exists somewhere, but I forget to attach it. For example, Mengyao ran a Reddit reply test recently, and the doc from that experiment has a huge amount of signal in it. It could shape product direction, growth direction, and a lot of downstream decisions. But when I’m talking to Codex about strategy, I still sometimes forget to include it. That is such a stupid failure mode. I used to think “agents in group chats” were a toy. Now I increasingly think a lot of teams do not need a smarter agent first. They need a workspace where the agent is already sitting inside the context, absorbing strategy changes as they happen, and using the shared work without everyone manually re-explaining it. We’re going to test this internally for real. I’ll report back next month with what worked, what was annoying, and what turned out to be fake.

    🦠 THEY HID FEDERAL RECORDS FOR YEARS 🔒 On August 18 2026, David Morens, longtime senior adviser to Anthony Fauci, pleaded guilty to conspiring to conceal COVID origins communications by routing them through personal Gmail to dodge FOIA and the Federal Records Act. Five years of deliberate record management around a lab linked to the Wuhan Institute of Virology. If that level of institutional self protection was used on a public pandemic, the same machinery has had decades to lock down UAP retrieval programs, reverse engineering efforts, and the black budget networks that fund them. What else has stayed off the official servers?

    STOP Using "Sign in with Google" for EVERYTHING!!! Your google account may be connected to far more than just gmail. cloud tools, business accounts, developer platforms, documents, and even services that make you money can all depend on the same login. That convenience can create a single point of failure. If your google account is ever suspended, compromised, or lost, recovering access to everything connected to it can become a much bigger problem than you expect. For important accounts, avoid relying on google as your only login method. use unique passwords, 2fa, recovery methods, and backup admin access whenever possible. Also check your google account connections and remove third-party apps you no longer recognize or use.

    @mikepat711 I just recently did this too. Gmail had been warning me about nearing my cap. I had the AI purge like 50,000 emails of old obvious garbage. Problem solved. See ya again in 10 years when I'm maybe near the limit again.

    @jvisserlabs For sure, Jordi. The problem here is that for most people who work in large companies, (or any company with a functional IT), it will be very challenging to use GrokBot since it is an unsanctioned tool. If I cannot connect it to my work tools (think Gmail, Microsoft Office, Teams, Slack, Salesforce, etc.), then there's no point, right? So while GrokBot sounds amazing, as it stands, it is still not in a position to win the enterprise. It can win over solo entrepreneurs or people who use it for personal reasons, but right now I would love to use it, but I don't want to get fired for it.
