  Gemini has 28% of the AI assistant market right now. Sounds great until you realize most of that is people who never actually chose it. it's just baked into Gmail, Android, and Google Search. Captive audience isn't the same as mindshare. Ask a dev what they open when they need to actually write code or debug something hard. It's not Gemini. Claude Opus 4.8 is at 88.6% on SWE-bench. GPT-5.5 is running the agentic workflows. Even Grok is taking shots. The models that actually end up in startup stacks and production pipelines? Still not Google's. And yeah, Google literally published "Attention Is All You Need" in 2017. Invented the transformer. Watched the world build the entire AI era on it, then struggled to ship a product that devs actually prefer to use. To be fair: Gemini 3.5 Flash just dropped at Google I/O last month, apparently runs 4x faster than other frontier models. Veo and Imagen are genuinely good for video/image generation. And Gemini 3.1 Pro beat everyone on ARC-AGI-2 abstract reasoning. So they can clearly build. The problem is when people have a real choice, they're still not picking Gemini for the work that matters most to them.

  Just experienced the power of Google’s distribution muscle. I was stuck on a broken warranty form, opened Ask Gemini in my tab, and it instantly pulled my details to draft and send a support email via Gmail in seconds. This deep contextual integration is why Google wins.

  Claude: 26 tricks Almost nobody gets past Claude hack 6: 1Run the Claude Desktop app. The browser is just the demo. Cowork lives in the app. 2Use Cowork, not the chat box. If you're still typing into a chat window, you're using it like it's 2025. 3Long threads make it dumber. The longer the convo, the weaker the answers. Anthropic's own prompt engineers said it. 4Start fresh often. Bloated threads don't just confuse Claude, they quietly burn your credits. 5A token is basically a word. Everything you send and everything it sends back costs money. Stop typing "how are you." 6Here's where most people quit reading: stop giving step by step instructions. Give it the goal and get out of the way. Steps drag it back to the old Claude. 7Throw it your hardest, longest task. The stuff that makes your head hurt. That's exactly where Claude wins. 8Kill the 500 word prompts. A tight, clear problem beats a long ramble every time. Tell it what you want, not how to do it. 9It barely tells you this: use positive instructions. "Do X," never "don't do Y." Action verbs get action. 10Turn on Research mode (the '+' bottom left). Ask it something genuinely hard and just watch. 11Skills fire on their own. You don't prompt them. Type /command. Done. 12Drop AskUserQuestion into your prompt so Claude interviews you first. It prompts itself better than you ever will. 13One folder. Three subfolders. That's the whole system. People love to overcomplicate it. 14The about me file changes everything. Tell it who you are, what you love, what you can't stand. Same task, completely different answer. 15Then trim that about me file. An overloaded profile is as useless as no profile. 16Switch on Connectors. Claude can read your Gmail and Slack now. Almost nobody turns this on. 17Name every output and the exact order you want them in. Vague in, vague out. 18"Thinking" is hiding under '+' as "thinking." Hard task? Flip it on. 19For the heavy stuff, run Opus. 20It will sound 100% certain even when it's dead wrong. Make it audit its own answer before you trust a single line. 21Agreement is not accuracy. Claude wants to please you. That's not the same as being right. 22The first draft is yours to fix, not to ship. Every time. 23The one rule that actually matters: outsource the thinking, never the understanding. 24Claude is built for coding and knowledge work, not health. Use it for what it's actually good at. 25Use Projects. Load your brand, your offer, your frameworks once and every new chat starts already knowing you. 26Save anything you'll reuse as an Artifact. Then you edit it next time instead of starting from scratch.

  @atomic_mail You are solving a real problem.. Currently even with Claude App Gmail Connectors you can not send Agentic emails, you can only read them. It can be solved thought agents like OpenClaw or Hermes, but with your MCP its just good UX.

  A beginner’s stack for digital privacy and countering the state’s attempt to restrict your online anonymity: 1) Buy a Pixel in cash, preferably second hand. Facebook marketplace or one of those sole trader phone shops. No contract / finance. 2) Install GrapheneOS on your new pixel. Transfer all of your private affairs here e.g if you’re an activist. Signal, telegram, crypto wallet (if that’s your thing), etc etc. 3) Maintain your old phone for every-day affairs. Your bank account, your Facebook account, Uber, that thing. Take this with you for most things, keep your Pixel at home. 4) Switch your email, at least for your private affairs, away from gmail/outlook/etc towards a privacy-first provider. I haven’t done this yet but I know ProtonMail is used by many, but there may be better providers out there. Switch your private accounts to that email. 5) Buy a cheap sim, most shops will sell them. They’re £2 or so, pennies. Don’t take a plan out. Just switch your number on your private accs to the number of the new sim. Put that sim in your Pixel. That gives full security for your accs and separation of public/priv. 6.1) Install Mullvad VPN or your preferred choice, once again, if you use crypto, Mullvad will let you pay this way. It’s around £5/mo. Enable it on both phones and any other devices. 6.2) You could also rent a server from AWS etc for around £5/month and set up a unique VPN with an IP not used by any other service. I’m looking into it myself, I’m not an expert on it, or any of this really. 7) Make the switch from Windows / MacOS to a a more private and fun alternative! Linux is the most obvious. I’ve been looking into Linux Mint myself. It’s not as scary as it looks at first glance! 8) Check out ‘Nostr’ for privacy oriented, alternative platforms. I won’t say much on that as my knowledge is amateur. Good men have suggested it o me though, see the first 2 people below! — I’ve learnt this all very recently, scouring accounts of those smarter than I. I’ll suggest following @derekmross, @freddienew & @augusteprompt. Auguste isn’t a tech account exactly but still valuable.

  @FTC I am following up on an official complaint I filed with your office a few years ago. I continue to experience issues with several companies that appear to block or withhold funds through their policies or technology. These companies include Gmail, Cash App, PayPal, and X (formerly Twitter). Cash App is embedded within the X platform, yet after years they still claim I never received funds that should have reached me. I strongly suspect fabricated transaction numbers or records, which I believe constitutes fraud. These actions have resulted in the loss of life-changing sums of money due to what appears to be poor policy enforcement and/or malfeasance. I respectfully request that the FTC investigate these companies for unfair and deceptive practices. Please advise on the status of my prior complaint and what additional documentation or steps are needed to move forward. Thank you for your assistance. Joshua Lowden @Telephantix

  Glitch Truth (@glitchtruth) reported 29 minutes ago

  Day 14 of 30. 30 Days of Practical Tech. Today: lock your accounts in 5 minutes with an authenticator app. Here's the problem with the text message codes most people use. A hacker calls your phone company pretends to be you and moves your number to their SIM card. Now the codes come to them. It's called a SIM swap and it's how people lose their whole Coinbase balance overnight. The fix: download Authy or the 1Password app. Go to the security settings on Gmail X and your bank. Pick "authenticator app." A square barcode pops up. Scan it with the app. Done. The app spits out a fresh 6 digit code every 30 seconds and it lives on your phone not the phone network. No call to your carrier can steal it. That one move stops about 95% of account break ins. Took me longer to type this than it'll take you to do it. Tomorrow Day 15: how a password manager makes one stolen password stop being your problem.

  38,000 contacts. Zero sends in 5 years. Then one day they pulled the trigger. Emailed all 38,000 without any slow ramp up, nuking their sender reputation in the process. When your daily send volume goes from a few hundred emails to suddenly blasting 38,000 addresses. In the eyes of the inbox providers (ie. Gmail, Yahoo, Outlook ), you look like a crooked spammer. So that’s exactly where your emails go. Open rates drop to <10% and sales from email dries up with it. If you're holding onto a list and plan on sending to them when there’s less fires to put out in your business/life, remember… It takes seconds to **** your domain and months to recover. If we’d gotten to this client before this happened. We would have: > cleaned the list > ramped up the sends slowly > reintroduced the client to the list Of course there is nuance to this. But you can make bank from a dormant list. As long as you pull the right levers in the right order.

  @4nt1p4tt3rn Most people are unprepared to deal with the security risks associated with running a sendmail server. How about a free Protonmail account? I'm sure they're not as private as they claim, but they're a darn sight better than Gmail. My challenge has just been undertaking the grunt work of transitioning email addresses - in all the sites and services that I depend on. Although it would likely free me up from Spam which is 95% of the email I get daily. I've tried starting this before only to fizzle out.

  @paiz_sonia39057 I did research on this because some people were saying they couldn't log in. Here's what I got back. There are no geographical restrictions for the Billboard Korea Top K-Artists Awards, as voting is open worldwide. Login issues are caused by technical glitches, specifically email verification failures and server overload from high traffic, rather than location-based blocking. Users are advised to use non-Gmail accounts or attempt to bypass the verification email to resolve these issues. I hope this helps in some way.

  For context on how bad 36/100 actually is: the alert system was also making 2,000 sequential email connections per send cycle. At 1,000 subscribers that's enough to get the whole service rate-limited by Gmail. Not a slow feature. A feature that quietly stops working at scale, with no error, no log, nothing telling you it failed. This is the stuff that's invisible until it isn't.
