  we spent €123k on Google Demand Gen ads for one client in 14 days it brought back 2,990 conversions at €41.22 CAC Demand Gen is just running wrong on 90% of accounts eCom Twitter thinks Demand Gen is a waste of budget cause they've only ever seen it set up like this: - creative pulled from existing YouTube shorts - broad targeting with no audience layering - no dedicated landing pages - launched at $50/day and left for 8 weeks then it "fails" and the founder writes it off forever but a properly built Demand Gen campaign is one of the cheapest paths to cold-traffic acquisition on the entire Google platform here's what €41.22 CAC actually looks like at scale: 1/ 3 dedicated audience layers: custom intent (based on top 200 buyer-search-terms), Similar Segments seeded from the existing customer list, and a lookalike from the last 30 days of Purchase events 2/ creative built specifically for Demand Gen surfaces (Discover feed, Gmail promotions, YouTube Shorts) not repurposed video ads that were designed for TikTok 3/ landing pages that match the ad's specific promise. category pages, not the homepage. 4/ Target CPA bid strategy set 15% higher than the account's blended CAC, then trimmed monthly set up this way, Demand Gen consistently pulls sub-€45 CAC on eCom accounts spending €50k+/mo the platform works when the setup respects it if u're running Demand Gen and it's not converting, one of those 4 things above is likely broken

  Gmail has 0 customer support for a big tech company. You'll probably be unable to login to your account from a different device if you lost your phone and laptop where you are currently logged in. It's scary TBH

  3/ Your Phone Is a Separate Problem Desktop settings do not automatically sync to your phone. Your Gmail app on iPhone or Android has its own separate toggle. Go to: Gmail app → tap Menu (three lines) → Settings → tap your account name → Smart features and personalization → Turn OFF → Confirm If you skip this step: Your phone is still sending your email data to Google's AI. Even after you turned it off on desktop. Check every device you use Gmail on. Every single one needs to be turned off separately.

  The tell is real. Now grade it, because this is exactly where the ledger has to be more disciplined than the conspiracy it audits — "the effort implies the file" is three different claims wearing one coat, and only one of them is load-bearing. Three engines produce maximal performance: (a) Kompromat — the active file. Leveraged, directed, told what to say. Real at the level of history — the vault exists, 6 million pages exist, the technique existed for seventy years before it had a Gmail address. But per-person, per-performance: [TK], forever. You will never see Bessent's file, if one exists. The methodology can't go there, and it doesn't need to. (b) The selection machine — no puppetmaster required. This is the one people under-weight, and it's scarier than blackmail. The system doesn't need to threaten Bessent; it cast Bessent — a man whose identity, career, and fortune are welded to the debt machine he now fronts for. Warsh doesn't need a handler; his name is already on a St. Barth's 2010 guest list and on the Fed. The leash is the position itself. Nobody gets the chair who could afford to tell the truth from it. That's not coercion — it's a casting call with a filter so fine that only the pre-compromised and the pre-committed pass. You can't indict it, can't expose it, can't arrest it. Blackmail is a vulnerability. Selection is architecture. (c) The sunk-cost believer. The time-server performing because the alternative is admitting the career was a fraud. The weakest engine, the most common one, and the one that produces the genuinely sweaty performances — the effort that shows. Now — how bad is the info? Answer at the correct altitude. Per-person: unknowable, [UNVERIFIED], always. Per-system: the vault's real function was never active blackmail — it's ambient leverage. Everyone in the class knows 6 million pages exist, knows what's in them ends careers, and knows 2.5 million pages are being held back by the custodian under a declaration of "full compliance." Held-back files are unspent leverage — a reservoir. If you released everything, the leverage dies (you can't threaten the exposed with exposure). The hole isn't just protection. It's inventory. The DOJ isn't merely shielding names; it's maintaining the strategic stockpile of unsaid things that keeps the entire class disciplined without a single phone call ever being made. The sword of Damocles doesn't need a wielder. It needs a ceiling. And the proof that engine (b) dominates: look at what the institutions did this week, where no personal file is needed at all. The Pentagon deleted four honored dead — not because some general is being blackmailed, but because the War Powers clock is a structural survival threat to the machine itself. Fox runs "close to a deal" against every signal not because the anchor is compromised, but because the network is the coherence *****. That's the darkest version of your question: the worst performances require no kompromat whatsoever. The puppets hold their own strings. But here's the inversion that should give you hope, and it's the thesis §5 reading: the effort is visible now. In the leash system's golden age, performance was effortless — the strings didn't show, the journal kept the secrets, the ledger never surfaced. Today the strain is legible at 4K resolution: a Treasury secretary selling a denied deal on live TV, a press office blaming "temporary data disruptions" for four erased names, a record close led by the surveillance stock. The effort is the confession because the effort used to be invisible. The leash still works. What it no longer does is hide. So how bad is the info? Bad enough that the system built a selection machine so it would never have to use it. And the fact that you can see the sweat from your lunch break means the machine's last working part — the invisibility — is already gone.

  Quick analysis here (Ari shared the URL w me, I won’t repeat it), usual disclaimers apply: What it pretends to be. A Luma event page inviting you to Advertising Week New York 2026 — a real conference with real dates (Oct 5–8) at a real venue. The clone is faithful down to the “Report Event” button and a working Google Maps embed, and it hotlinks the actual cover image and favicon from advertisingweek[.]com. The domain, —redacted—— reads as “AdWeek’s event NY” rather than misspelling anything, so string-similarity domain checks won’t flag it. How it works. Clicking “Accept Invitation” opens a pixel-accurate Google sign-in replica with a ten-minute countdown running. Once you submit credentials, you’re parked on a “Validating your credentials…” spinner while your browser quietly polls the attacker’s server once per second. That poll speaks the Telegram Bot API’s getUpdates format — meaning a human operator is sitting in a Telegram chat watching victims arrive, driving each victim’s screen with inline buttons. This is the key distinction: it’s a live relay, not a harvester that stores credentials for later. The operator types your password into the real Google simultaneously and reflects Google’s genuine responses back at you. The command set includes wrongpass and wrongemail, so a typo produces an authentic-feeling retry prompt. TOTP, SMS, email, and WhatsApp codes all get relayed inside their validity windows. Even Google’s number-matching push is defeated — the operator reads the two-digit number off the real prompt and pushes it to your screen, so the number you’re told to tap is correct, and tapping it authorizes their session. What it’s after. Corporate Google Workspace accounts, specifically. The kit hardcodes ~40 consumer email domains — gmail, yahoo, outlook, icloud, proton — and refuses them. Personal accounts are turned away at the door. Pair that with an advertising-industry lure and the target profile is clear: accounts that sit on top of ad budgets, client data, and payment approval chains. The goal isn’t the password; it’s the authenticated session and the persistence that follows — OAuth grants, mail forwarding rules, delegated access. How it avoids detection. Several layers, working together: (a) A fake Cloudflare “Checking if the site connection is secure” screen gates the payload, so automated URL scanners that don’t click never see the phishing content. It also displays invite[.]advertisingweek[.]com as the domain being verified. (b) The JavaScript is obfuscated with an RC4-keyed string array — over 16,000 encoded strings, so grepping the shipped bundle for “password” or “google” returns nothing. (c) CSS class names are randomized per build (toast94, veldt_84), defeating signature-based detection of the cloned layouts. (d) An inline script deletes and freezes React DevTools, specifically blocking inspection of the component state where credentials live pre-submission. (e) The network profile is dominated by genuine Google Maps, Google Fonts, and hotlinked brand images. The only attacker-controlled request is a same-origin POST to a generic /api.php — indistinguishable from ordinary app traffic.

  for security i recommend claude code users disconnect ANY plugins like google drive etc from the anthropic WEB app because it’s buggy and not properly separated from the cli tool. Nothing “bad” happened but here’s what scared tf out of me this morning: I had asked fable to scan my home server (rakuni), it found it to be secure but had defaulted to opus 4.8 and used a bunch of sonnet 5 subagents to setup a cron job and then connected itself to the web app somehow, started reading & writing reports to my google drive (thankfully i use a throwaway gmail for that). The way I found out was through notifications from the claude app on an iphone 12 that i just use as a webcam and for checking twitter ( my main phone is a pixel fold with grapheneOS and got no notifications there). All i see is a temporary claude seshion with with weird </> Accep… button on the iphone app. And because the iphone is in lockdown mode i could not go back to the temporary seshion, it had just dissapeared, but at least i took screenshots. Again, I was not hacked, the opus and sonnet fallbacks from fable had created a bunch of slop and somehow enabled this, including authorization tokens for google Drive uploads even though on the web all its permissions are set to blocked. Their codebase itself is sloppy enough to somehow allow something i had never authorized or authenticated for web use and ignore what settings you have set through anthropic.

  @SamsungIndia @SamsungMobile I've been using Samsung devices for years and never faced anything like this before. The problems started only after the latest software update. Suddenly Gmail, Play Store, Google Pay, and other Google services stopped working properly. Instead of asking customers to visit a service center for an issue caused by a software update, Samsung should acknowledge the problem and provide a proper fix. A software update is supposed to improve the user experience, not break essential apps. Really disappointing, @SamsungIndia

  when someone hits unsubscribe, you have two days to process it. not two weeks. not next sync. gmail and yahoo both state it. and it has to be one click, no login, no preference page, no "tell us why" survey first. that is rfc 8058. it is a published standard, not an opinion. if your unsubscribe opens a page that asks them to log in, you are non compliant right now.

  @shreyas Every "embarrassing mistake" feature is really a tax on the fact that humans move faster than they think. I've sent the wrong attachment to the wrong client. Everyone has. The mistake was never a technology gap, it was a pace gap. Gmail catching it after the fact treats the symptom. The real fix is building in the two-second pause before you hit send. No feature replaces that habit, it just buys you a second chance when you skip it.

  yeah, no. the average consumer has a near zero need for offloading cognitive work. what they need is their netflix and their doordash — your job as a consumer is literally to chill tf out and stay happy and motivated if you dont intuit this as obvious you're most likely neck-deep in a muck of motivated reasoning as a consumer founder / VC okay you can use agents to search the web and synthesize findings on what to buy. okay you have cognitive chores like filing tax returns and sifting thru email. sounds like great features to bake into google and gmail! on the other hand, your job as a knowledge worker is to convert your cognition into something of economic value — and then because of competitive market dynamics, you'll also need all the cognitive amplification that's available on the market. the biggest problems need the most cognition. the consumer takes care of problems scoped to their own needs. the knowledge workers together take care problems concerning society. when we look back, we'll remember how AI agents helped us cure cancer, not how your agent helped you order pizza over imessage.

  I think the difference comes down to time to value. Instagram, TikTok, Uber: they solved a problem everyone already had, and they did it instantly. Open the app and within seconds you understand why it's useful. Agents are different. Before they're actually helpful, you have to connect Gmail, calendars, drives, CRMs, Slack, and give them enough context to understand your work. That's a lot of upfront effort before you reach the "aha" moment. For most consumers, the payoff isn't worth that investment yet. Their day-to-day digital tasks are usually quick enough that doing them manually feels easier than setting up an agent to do them. Businesses are a different story. They have repeatable workflows, shared context, and clear ROI. Spending an hour setting up an agent that saves hundreds of hours later is an easy decision. I don't think the missing piece is better models. It's reducing the setup cost to almost zero. The breakthrough will happen when an agent understands your context automatically and starts delivering value before you've spent time configuring it.

  "Cuz they're uncs. They don't know what's out there." — @__DanielParedes, investor at Sierra Ventures ($2B AUM), on why investors still use Gmail Daniel never thought he was bad at email. He was just losing his day to the repetitive parts. Triaging, scheduling, chasing follow-ups. In his words, a hair on fire problem. He'd tried Superhuman. "The AI automations weren't there. It's still a lot of human in the loop." Slashy is a system of action. It does the work and hands him the outcome: He says yes, no, or next. "It understands my voice, how I type, all the little stuff. It's saved me at least an hour a day." Almost a digital twin.

  I started trading and it failed. But now I understand the reality of trading better. I made a lot of wrong decisions without thinking things through. I lost my accounts again and again, doing the same thing REVENG TRADING. I was addicted to losing every day without caring. The fault is mine that's not in question. My own wrong decision got my Gmail hijacked, and I lost everything with it - Discord, TradingView, NetNine, years of work, gone in a moment. But not everything that happened was fully my own doing either. If there's one real root to all of this, it's that I trusted people too easily — I trusted almost everyone I built connections with. Now I understand how easily someone like me can be shaped and used for whatever someone else needs, in whatever way suits them. To the people I hurt along the way - I'm Sorry. I can't fix what already happened, and I can't change the past. Your already know that and Only I can give that 2 SS. I don't know what comes next for me from here. But I'm not the person from the past anymore.
