  @blessedby__ @GoogleWorkspace @Em0517561932234 imo this would make the implication even worse. Gmail forces ‘Gemini Flows’ and automation down my throat constantly, yet they don’t use their own tech? Seems dumb for one of the biggest AI companies in the world to have a standardized reply that’s completely irrelevant, instead of y’know, using their technology to automate a relevant reply.

  I think this is a symptom of the "internet" shrinking down to a handful of websites (Facebook, Gmail, X) for most of the population. They're not aware that outside of these walled gardens, everything is pretty much constantly on fire, all the time.

  @_avichawla Cutting the redundant layer out of a pipeline is the same instinct I applied to my own inbox. I set up Opencode with a Gmail MCP server to triage which emails actually deserve a reply and read the warmth behind them, authenticated through the gmail-mcp auth step.

  Claude can now run your Mac in the background while you do something else, and that quietly ends the debate about whether AI agents need your full attention. Everyone assumed autonomous computer control meant giving up your screen, watching a cursor move while you wait. That assumption is wrong now, at least on macOS 15. Sonnet 4.6 scores 72.5% on OSWorld, up from under 15% when computer use first shipped in late 2024. Two years took the model from novelty to something close to reliable. Yes, it's Pro and Max only, macOS only, still marked research preview. None of that changes the direction, it only changes the rollout schedule. This isn't a new feature, it's a shift in where automation lives. For a decade we treated automation as an API problem. Now the interface itself is the integration layer. Give it three years and clicking through a UI will be the fallback path, not the exception, for every agent that lacks a direct connector. Connectors like Slack and Gmail stop being the main event and become a shortcut Claude reaches for first, before it falls back to acting like you would. Engineers who spent years building bespoke API integrations are about to watch screen control eat a chunk of that work. Multitasking on a Mac just got a second set of hands, and most people haven't noticed yet.

  @sama Hi Sam. A post saying, “I’m in serious trouble because my ChatGPT account was banned,” is going viral in Japan. Of course, there may have been legitimate reasons in this particular case, but ChatGPT accounts have become extremely important to people. Imagine how disruptive it would be if a Gmail account you had used for 20 years suddenly became inaccessible one day. I understand that, because ChatGPT and Codex are such powerful tools, monitoring and managing users is important. However, I believe mistakenly banning users who pose little risk is a serious problem. Precisely because your services are so valuable to people, I hope you will exercise great care when deciding whether to ban an account. P.S. I’m also having trouble because I can no longer publish GPTs. Even features that are not widely used can be extremely important to some people.

  @TechsavvyCS It was surprising that so many people were experiencing this problem. With a simple automation set up in Gmail, I redirect the incoming email to Telegram, and by using a long ringtone in Telegram, I can wake up even while asleep and deliver the item. Updated your research

  @specialkdelslay I'm not quite sure what GCP defines as a vCPU, but I DO know how a vCPU in EC2 is defined and I would almost certainly bet they're either identically defined or very similar. It's probable that a "vCPU" is a hyperthread (or in non-intel parlance, an SMT thread, or just a thread). I would highly suspect D.O. oversubscribes their customers (probably not to 2 or 3x physical threads), but probably 1.5x. This is an educated guess, but without seeing how they define it, and knowing EXACTLY how EC2 does it, the way you get "faster" vCPUs is a very small number of ways: 1. dedicate a single hyperthread per customer and only over-subscribe the micro-series instance types (t-series in EC2). These dedicated hyperthreads are on the same physical core on a "medium" instance type, so you get one dedicated pCPU with 2 vCPUs. 2. newer hardware with high clock speeds. even though D.O. may be using the same generation CPU, they are likely not getting custom SKUs, like google, amazon, and microsoft all get. seriously, go look up the sku for any CPU in any of AWSs EC2 servers (you can see it with a /proc/cpuinfo)...then go look up the SKU...it doesn't exist on Intel's website. Custom higher-clockrate SKUs SPECIFICALLY for cloud vendors that they do EXTENSIVE testing on and get the premium binned silicon wafers (they buy and reserve their own wafers). Technically, newer hardware and higher clock speeds/custom skus is two separate ones, but they're more or less the same. The point is, there's basically two ways to boost vCPU performance. One is improving hardware, the other is the way you load down the hypervisor (also, it depends on whether or not they're isolating the hypervisor resources or not or if they're shared by a customer). Also, the perceived performance gap could be that they have bad luck on where they've landed and they're getting either a noisy neighbor and/or they're sharing infra with the VMM, which needs dedicated resources in Xen. In KVM, it doesn't need dedicated resources, but will still consume some resources and may cause performance hits depending on where the VMM task(s) run(s). As for what google is doing, yeah, looks like they're juicing their cloud customer numbers. I haven't used GCP in over 10 years, but I'm certainly still counted as a user, because it was tied to my personal gmail when I started my account. Also, youtube creators have to go into the google cloud console to set certain settings for API search and request limits. I suspect they're counting those users as well.

  what I did to troubleshoot the fact that there is no @Mailchimp connector yet and I didn’t wanna set up an API or an MCP I just connected it to the associated Gmail and I gave it the instruction that throughout the month. I’m gonna send photos information and recap on events we have with the title “month, Year MailChimp newsletter” so at the end of the month it can review all the stuff I’ve sent it to put together in this email and then it can also review the previous months email to cross-reference and check for other items that are relevant to add to the email… so I can just dump all the content in my Gmail inbox and it can work and its own computer and MailChimp after I login. 🎉

  @bot @bot i have been waiting for five days for Customer service to resolve a sync issue. I signed up mainly for GrokBot but have been unable to use it because it tries to sync my cursor to my Gmail account which is attached to my Apple account which is how my grok account logged in.

  @MRHarleyson Both cases I submitted is close, I told Discord supports (on Direct message Twitter/ X) and the support ticket about my gmail have been also hacked that I have no way to sign in. I told them that the gmail account have been hacked and brushed me off that (1/2)

  Local open source agents and models will never be both (a) runnable on consumer hardware, and (b) as intelligent as frontier models. Seems to be something forever stuck as an indie toy for tinkerers, like running an email server in your basement instead of using gmail. And if you're using OAI or Anthropic models, I don't see a benefit in using an open source agent harness - just use CC, Codex, Grok, etc.

  Nvm YouTube link is broken, so guess that means it’s not ‘contact us’ anymore..but ‘contact me’ now Meaning that email from that Gmail account wasn’t her saying all that. She also doesn’t talk like how the email was written either, so it’s more to show someone else still won’t let go of her

  @XSupport My friend is unable to access their X account @cuteshivi77. The password is correct, but X keeps showing “Incorrect Password.” We have requested a password reset several times, but the OTP/reset email is not being received on the registered Gmail account. Please look into this issue and help restore access to the account. Kindly fix the password reset/OTP issue as soon as possible. 🙏 #XSupport #AccountRecovery #PasswordReset

  @krainboltgreene @Speedkicks @slime_machine Unfortunately, it's basically impossible to create your own email server. The software and hardware is easy enough to get setup, but the major email service providers (Microsoft Outlook, Google Gmail, contracted emails through those 2) block all but a shortlist of providers.

  @huacnlee Tried your app. Sign-in offers either Google Auth or IMAP. I went with IMAP, then found out Gmail no longer accepts password logins. Tried switching back to Google Auth: impossible. Uninstalled and reinstalled — still stuck on the "Add an IMAP mailbox" screen. Can you fix this?

  Shout out to @MailspringApp I installed it last year for a desktop app that had Gmail keyboard shortcuts. I just noticed it has an MCP server now. I don't have to do a song an dance to give my Hermes agent access to various email accounts. I can reference an account and subject when prompting my agent and it can read the email, screenshots, attachments, etc. It can even draft reply emails for me that I can go back an edit and send when I'm ready. Thank you!

  @GergelyOrosz Really? When tech companies have an outage they sort of shrug and the economy goes on. AWS out - “we’re sorry” Robinhood down - “we made mistakes” Microsoft/Gmail down - “we’re working on it” Bank can’t dispense money? Bank runs, economic fall out, congressional hearings.

  @CMDRVALTHOR I got rid of my Gmail account and they DELETED more than half of my phone numbers in my I phone. go back to the good ole fashioned way and write down the numbers you want. For me, I don't care. I got rid of most of my past in the last 8 years so it was no big deal. google=evil

  I sent my Grok @Bot to hunt down an out-of-stock book! It couldn't find any in stock, and the only copy left was way too expensive. But since it has access to my Gmail, it just started emailing publishers and bookstores itself. They're all Turkish, so it wrote the emails in Turkish. I would spent hours on this previously, now it's minutes. Let's see how it ends up :)

  @Zoom Oh! I remember the other problem. The "send a code" button is super slow. Yes, I checked my spam folder. Took several minutes to come through. To a gmail domain. It also produces a captcha error every time you click the button even after you've already clicked the captcha.
