    Apple Mail “lost” my Gmail account. The fix was NOT rebuild the mailbox cache. macOS still had the Google account for Calendar + Contacts… but the IMAP child account under it was GONE. No IMAP child = Mail has nothing to sync. Deleting ~/Library/Mail/V10/ can’t invent an account that doesn’t exist. If Gmail vanished from Mail but still shows in System Settings: the parent Google account is fine — Mail’s receive/send children are missing. That’s the real bug. 🧵

    The uncomfortable truth: Superhuman is a $30/month interface sitting on top of a free Gmail account. It doesn't store your emails. It doesn't manage your server. It doesn't own your data. It adds keyboard shortcuts, a cleaner design, AI triage, and a premium feel to the same infrastructure you already have. For sales teams processing 200+ emails a day with CRM integrations and auto-drafts learning their voice across thousands of sent emails the $30/month might be worth it. For the rest of us the 95% who send 20-40 emails a day and pay $30/month because the interface is prettier Gmail's free settings do 90% of what Superhuman does. Keyboard shortcuts: free. Snooze: free. Split inbox: free. Templates: free. Schedule send: free. AI writing: free. Undo send: free. Filters: free. Search operators: free. Auto-advance: free. Confidential mode: free. $1,080 over 3 years. On features Gmail already had. Buried behind toggles I never flipped. I'm not saying Superhuman is bad. I'm saying I didn't need it. And neither do most people paying for it. The 20 minutes I spent in Gmail Settings were the most expensive 20 minutes Superhuman ever lost.

    @dogwoodblooms This is such bullshit. It really upsets me when companies do **** like this. I've been through similar situations with different companies before. I had AT&T send me a new modem every week for 6 months before they finally sent out a technician that discovered family of squirrels living in the junction box down the street. No internet for 6 months. I paid my bill on time, but they didn't provide any service. I spent at least an hour sometimes four or five hours on the phone rebooting my computer over and over again because they wouldn't let me move on from step two until they did step one. Most phone calls ended with me hanging up on them because they wanted me to upgrade. I'm supposed to be getting a hundred megabytes per second. Instead I'm getting 4 KB per second (no exaggeration it took 30 minutes to load my Gmail box. To load their page and do their speed test took over an hour when it should have been 15 seconds) and their solution is I need to pay them more money for faster internet. When they finally admitted their fault and fix the problem, their way of making it better to be it was twenty dollars off my next month. I broke my contract and for 7 years had that bad mark on my credit, but I wasn't going to pay them for another year and a half after they put me through hell for 6 months.

    If you're in an interview with Google, and they ask about your favorite Google product, it is not small talk. This is where a lot of people give an answer like, “I use Gmail every day,” and then they stop there like the job is done. That is not an answer. That is a testimonial. If you pick a product, explain the problem it solves, why it works, what tradeoffs you notice, what type of user it serves, and how it connects to the role you want. If you’re interviewing for engineering, talk like someone who thinks about systems. If you’re interviewing for product, talk like someone who understands users. If you’re interviewing for sales, support, marketing, or strategy, connect it to the business. Do not fanboy over the product. Analyze it like someone who could help build or improve it. The power move is making the interviewer feel like you can think inside the product.

    I created 6 Gmail accounts just to use Antigravity, and then I realized something. With Antigravity IDE, you can sign in with as many Google accounts as you want. But Cursor seems to limit you to just 3 Google accounts. How is Cursor enforcing that limit? 🤔

    @BoringBiz_ Step one, get to that point. Nothing matters until you get to that point. Just get there. Have **** you money. Now and only now are you in a position to actually decide what you want from life. The truly passionate won't skip a beat, no, they might double or triple down, knowing that even if their business burns to the ground taking a big risk, they never have to worry about going hungry or homeless. Will some put their feet up and play starcraft all day? Sure, those aren't the ones who were running businesses, those are the ones who got a high enough job in Google managing the color of the "cc" button in Gmail because they told their high school career counselor at 16 they "liked minecraft" and were told they sounded "good at computer" so they should "get a degree in computer" and now they can finally go back to doing the thing with computer they enjoyed in the first place. It's terrible, I get it, if we were all smart, we all saved up, we all retired early, or cut down our hours, would that be eroding the commons? Does this only work because we get ourselves into these little traps, so we have to work our 40 hour weeks for 40 years, that keeps society productive enough to sustain us all? What happens if everyone FIREd at 30? Would the securities give the returns needed to allow such a thing? I don't know. What I do know is that some of the best innovations have come from people who had a decade of industry experience, enough of a war chest in their pocket to be able to step away from their 9 to 5 and risk everything building a business. Getting all of these smartest people to FIRE, telling them to burn $150,000 on a pet project to start a business, is about the best thing we could do for society

    The immediate future of ALL agents is coding agents, and although I could be wrong, I believe this surprising fact is going to be a HUGE boost for @typescript in particular. Let me explain. If your business wants an agent to assist with customer support, employee onboarding, outbound sales, or payroll, then the agent they need is actually a coding agent. The reason for this is quite simple: coding agents have an ability to leverage their training data to solve general-purpose problems, in ways shapes by the tools they have access to. An outbound sales agent assistant can talk to your knowledge base, pull some contacts from your CRM, analyze conversation history, do a web search to learn about each prospect, and then send email through your Gmail account to each prospect. Doing all of this stuff, and doing even more that the agent was never explicitly designed to do, requires the ability to write, test, and execute code for ad hoc, one-off problems. Only a coding agent can do that, and thanks to innovation at the level of the model and harness, a coding agent can do it well. Now, a true general-purpose coding agent can work in any code base, in any language, in any operating system, and with any tech stack. Of course, that type of coding agent is very useful to developers. However, it's overkill for most agentic systems. Most custom agents do not actually need to work with any code base or any language and on any operating system. They just need the ability to write code in some language (which has a lot of libraries) and execute on some platform. What is the ideal language and platform? I'd argue that @typescript fits the bill PERFECTLY. Since TypeScript compiles to Javascript, it can run securely, in a completely sandboxed way, inside V8 isolates, WASM, etc., all of which creates a compelling story for secure, efficient, and scalable custom agent execution. Moreover, because TypeScript adds types to Javascript, those types can be used to catch a lot of common bugs and runtime errors that a Javascript coding agent would have trouble catching in advance--allowing for far faster and more efficient solution of general-purpose problems. So, while general-purpose coding agents will of course need to support all programming languages, platforms, and tech stacks, custom agents are likely to be specialized -- while they will be coding agents, they don't need to work with any programming language, platform, or tech stack. They just need to work with one, and currently, the best option appears to be @TypeScript, for reasons of security, portability, type-safety, and efficiency. Is it any wonder TypeScript is home to some of the most amazing innovations currently happening in AI?

    I don’t think most people realize how utterly strange it is that Google does not have an AI harness that is competing with OpenAI and Anthropic. Their ineptitude at product management has now gone from hobbling a company that was guaranteed to win to exposing it to existential risk. This is a company worth trillions of dollars that is medically unable to ship a product. Using any of their services as an administrator is the same type of torture that it was 15 years ago. Google’s inability to fix this should be studied in business books for decades to come. Starting now. It is the single strangest thing I’ve ever seen in business. They literally invented modern AI, and all they have to show for it is annoying pop-ups in Gmail and Google Docs that make everyone want to vibe code an alternative. The best evidence that ASI already exists is a theory that it’s at work inside of Google already, making sure they lose. What an absolute abomination.

    How to actually read your YouTube analytics in 29 seconds: CTR under channel average = broken thumbnail (redesign, do not touch the video) CTR above channel average + AVD under 30% = misleading thumbnail (viewer clicked, script disappointed) AVD above 50% + views flat = the algorithm has not found your audience yet (keep posting the same format) Returning viewer rate under 20% = no channel identity (audience does not remember you) Impressions climbing but views flat = thumbnail is not competing in the sidebar (redesign) Impressions flat = trust score issue (warm up new gmail, restart the channel)

    3. Invisible Tracking Pixels The Situation: You open an email from a marketer, glance at it for three seconds, and delete it. Two hours later, you get a follow-up email from the same person saying, "Hey, noticed you took a look at my last email!" It feels like magic, but it’s actually invasive surveillance. The Mechanics: Marketers embed a 1x1 transparent pixel (literally a single, invisible dot of light) inside the body of the email. When you open the message, your email client has to "download" that pixel from the marketer's server to display it. When that download happens, the server logs your exact IP address, the type of device you are holding, your geographic location, and the precise second you opened the email. They use this behavioral data to time their next spam attack perfectly. The Fix: You must cut off their surveillance cameras. Go to Gmail Settings > General > Images. Switch the toggle to "Ask before displaying external images." Now, your emails will load as raw text first. The tracking pixel is blocked in the cloud until you explicitly click "display images," blinding the marketers completely.

    If you want Claude to send from multiple email accounts, the built-in connector is probably not the whole answer. Gmail drafts. Outlook reads. True send-from-each-account usually means a provider-specific MCP server and real auth hygiene.

    Mini-rant. Every time I open gmail on the browser, I get this message: "Oops, something went wrong". To fix it, I try everything suggested by OAI. Then I contact @google customer service. After an hour of chat, of sending all possible screenshots (in multiple browsers also incognito mode), the exchange with OAI and the remedies, and then even a video of the event (!), the representative says "oh sorry, we are google one, not workspace." me: "can you at least forward the exchange?". Of course not. You have to spend another hour. It seems completely absurd. I am 90% curious about fixing a google problem *for them*. I have been thinking about what makes tech companies good. A sign of organizational rot is the "I don't care about what's good for the firm, this is the process" and it close cousin "This is very hard to do", and the "Why make trouble? This works well". Nothing works quite as expected, both at great companies and mediocre ones. It's just that these expectations are different.

    4. Third-Party App Leeches (The OAuth Backdoor) The Situation: For over a decade, you’ve been clicking that convenient "Sign in with Google" button to access random PDF editors, personality quizzes, mobile games, and budget trackers. You traded access to your Google account to save 30 seconds of typing a new password. The Mechanics: Many of those apps requested OAuth permissions to "Read, Compose, Send, and Permanently Delete all your email from Gmail." You clicked "Allow" without reading. Even if you deleted the app from your phone five years ago, the developer's server still maintains a permanent, open backdoor into your inbox. Shady developers frequently sell these dormant apps to malicious actors who use those permissions to quietly scrape your inbox for receipts, bank names, and contacts. The Fix: Go to your Google Account > Security > Third-party apps with account access. Click on "Manage third-party access." You will be horrified by the graveyard of forgotten apps. Revoke access to absolutely everything that isn't a highly trusted, daily-use application. Slam the backdoor shut.

    Installing every Claude plugin can make Claude Code worse. Tech With Tim opens with the failure mode, then spends 22 minutes cutting the stack down to tools with a specific job: > 00:00 once Claude sees around 50 tools, it starts picking the wrong ones > 03:06 Pyright checks generated Python against real type errors > 05:06 Anthropic's GitHub plugin fails; the MCP workaround is connected by 07:54 > 16:21 Context7 pulls current framework documentation > 17:34 Composio finds the required tool on demand instead of loading the full catalog into context > 19:59 Figma gives Claude the source design before it writes the page The article below adds Playwright for browser checks, Postgres or Supabase for data, Slack for team updates, and Gmail, Linear, or Notion for the work around the code. One workflow starts with a failed CI check on a pull request. Claude reads the failure, queries the database to reproduce the bug, writes the fix, and posts the result in Slack. The author keeps the setup to four to six MCP servers, with read-only database access and least-privilege tokens. Keep the stack small enough that Claude can still choose the right tool.
