  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.

  @Google Subject: Request for Investigation into Suspected Unauthorized Access and Recovery of Deleted Gmail Emails Dear Google Support, I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to request your assistance regarding what I believe may have been an unauthorized compromise of my Gmail account. In or around 2023, I discovered that a significant portion of my email history—spanning from approximately 2009 through to 2024—had been deleted. I did not delete these emails, nor did I authorize anyone else to do so. Their disappearance came as a complete surprise and has caused me considerable concern. Between 2022 and 2024, I was involved in highly contentious family court proceedings. Given the circumstances during that period, I have reason to be concerned that my email account may have been accessed without my knowledge. While I cannot say with certainty how this occurred, I would be grateful if Google could investigate whether there is any evidence of unauthorized access or unusual account activity. If possible, I respectfully request any information that Google is able to provide regarding: Whether there was any large-scale or bulk deletion of emails from my account. The approximate date and time when those deletions occurred. Which folder or location the emails were deleted from (for example, Inbox, Archive, Trash, or another mailbox). The IP addresses, devices, locations, and login history associated with my account during the relevant period, particularly throughout 2022–2024 and around the suspected deletion in 2023. Whether there were any unusual sign-ins, security alerts, or changes made to my account settings. Whether there is any possibility of recovering the deleted emails, or if backups or archived copies exist that may assist in restoring them. These emails are of immense personal and legal importance. They contain correspondence and records accumulated over many years, and their recovery would be invaluable. I understand that Google has policies regarding user privacy and data retention, and I appreciate that there may be limitations on the information or recovery options available. Nevertheless, I would be sincerely grateful for any assistance or guidance you can provide in investigating this matter. Thank you for taking the time to consider my request. I look forward to your response and appreciate any help you are able to offer. Yours faithfully, Wale.

  🚨 LET'S TALK ABOUT WHY SO MANY BUSINESS GOOGLE ACCOUNTS ARE BEING LOST For many businesses, a Google account is the backbone of daily operations. It gives access to Gmail, Google Workspace, Drive, Calendar, Meet, cloud storage, financial records, customer communications, and countless third-party services. Unfortunately, many businesses don't lose access because of a technical failure—they lose it because early security warnings were ignored. It often starts with something that seems insignificant: • A login alert from an unfamiliar device. • A notification about suspicious activity. • A warning that recovery information should be updated. • A request to review connected devices. • An unfamiliar app requesting access to the account. • A password change notification that goes unnoticed. Many business owners dismiss these alerts, assuming they're routine. Days or weeks later, they discover they've been locked out. Once an attacker gains control, they may: • Change the account password. • Replace the recovery email and phone number. • Remove trusted devices. • Access confidential business documents. • Read customer emails and invoices. • Lock legitimate owners out of their own Workspace. The biggest mistake isn't always getting hacked. It's ignoring the warning signs that appeared beforehand. Protecting a business Google account means: ✓ Reviewing security alerts immediately. ✓ Keeping recovery information up to date. ✓ Enabling two-factor authentication. ✓ Regularly checking connected devices and active sessions. ✓ Removing unfamiliar apps with account access. ✓ Training employees to recognize phishing attempts. A business can recover from many setbacks. But losing access to the account that runs your emails, files, customers, and operations can bring everything to a standstill. Security warnings aren't just notifications. They're often your first opportunity to stop an attack before it becomes a complete account takeover. #teamdangeorge #GoogleWorkspace

  The European Union 🇪🇺 just legalized scanning your private messages. The vote: 314 MEPs voted against it. 276 voted for it. It passed anyway. Rejecting it required an absolute majority of all 720 seats (361 votes). Not a majority of the room. So every empty chair on the last sitting day before summer recess counted as a yes. Classic @vonderleyen. More MEPs showed up to kill Chat Control 1.0 than to keep it. It became law regardless. Live until 2028. Platforms can now scan unencrypted messages again: Gmail, Instagram DMs, Discord, Snapchat, Xbox. WhatsApp and Signal got carved out. For now. This is how rights slowly disappear. Not in one dramatic moment. In procedural fine print, on a slow news day, while everyone is distracted with the World Cup and the USA-Iran war. The mandatory version is still coming. Client-side scanning, the one that breaks encryption itself. Trilogue resumes in September. Chat Control 2.0 is coming. Watch that one.

  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.

  @JCandLacie @AppleSupport I have this issue with one of my Gmail accounts. It still has a phone number from 10+ years ago. I called it & someone else now owns the number. I can’t reset my password bc Google will only send the verification code to that old number. Other options of recovery not available.

  @suitetvapp On Android, the login gets locked to one Gmail account. The next time I try to sign in with a different Gmail account, it doesn't let me, and it only shows the previously used account. Please fix this issue. Also, if possible, please add landscape mode support for tablets.

  Another great tip of the weekend from @richontech Tech… To cut down on spam email there is a setting in most mail clients where you can turn off remote image loading. It was tough to find on my Gmail client so I actually had to go to the desktop Gmail application to be able to do it. The secret is that when they load those images, it sends back a code to the email originator that it has been accessed which means that email address is live so it is going to continue to spam and re-spam that address.

  Now imagine an AI agent. Today it needs GitHub. Tomorrow it needs Gmail. Then PostgreSQL. Then Docker. Then your local files. Then AWS. Then Notion. Then a browser. Unlike traditional software, an AI agent isn’t built for one workflow. It’s expected to perform many different tasks across many different systems. That’s where the problem starts. Every tool speaks differently. Every API has different rules. The AI doesn’t just need access to tools… It needs a consistent way to understand and use them.

  That point is the architectural pivot. The idea is to stop thinking in terms of "the CLI", "the helper", and "the Mac app" as separate products with separate business logic. Today the flow is approximately: Crawler │ ├── CLI path │ ├── compute status │ ├── choose capabilities │ ├── format strings │ └── print terminal output │ └── Helper path ├── compute status again ├── throw information away ├── protobuf └── SwiftUI The problem isn't protobuf. It's that you've forked the business logic. You end up fixing things twice: search summaries status setup requirements capabilities freshness counts copy and eventually the two surfaces drift. The proposed architecture Instead: crawler │ ▼ federation / coordinator │ canonical typed model │ ┌───────────┼────────────┐ │ │ │ ▼ ▼ ▼ CLI human CLI JSON protobuf │ ▼ SwiftUI Notice that the CLI isn't special any more. It's just another renderer. The app isn't special either. It also just renders the same model. Example Suppose Gmail reports: searchable 42,312 messages 10,844 attachments last successful sync requires no setup headline capabilities:Mail Attachments Search Internally that becomes something like SourceStatus{ ID: "gmail", State: Ready, Capabilities: { Mail, Attachments, Search, }, Counts: { Messages: 42312, Attachments: 10844, }, Freshness: ... } Now three renderers consume it. CLI: gmail Mail • Attachments 42,312 messages 10,844 attachments JSON: { ... } SwiftUI: [Gmail] Search Gmail Mail • Attachments Nobody recomputes anything. Nobody invents new wording. Nobody has to remember to update three places. Same idea for search Instead of CLI search ↓ terminal rows ↓ helper reparses ↓ protobuf ↓ Swift you do Search() ↓ []SearchResult ↓ CLI renderer or protobuf ↓ Swift renderer The renderer chooses how to display it. The search engine never thinks about terminals. Same idea for setup Suppose Photos needs permission. Canonical model: SetupRequirement{ Type: PhotosPermission, Severity: Required, } CLI: Needs Photos permission. Run: trawl setup photos Swift: Photos Grant access [Continue] Again: same fact different presentation. Why this matters Right now every new feature has hidden tax. Imagine adding OCR. Today: CLI helper protobuf Swift all need updating. Under this model: Capability: OCR Everything else simply renders it. That's exactly the sort of architecture that scales to twenty crawlers instead of nine. One thing I'd tweak I would make the "federation layer" as thin as possible. It should not become a God object that knows how every crawler works. Instead think of it as an orchestrator. Each crawler already knows: capabilities setup search status open The federation layer should mostly: enumerate crawlers aggregate merge rank dispatch expose one API The crawlers remain the source of truth. Otherwise you'll slowly move business logic out of crawlers and recreate a second crawler implementation in the federation layer. So the mental model I'd use is: crawler │ ▼ typed domain objects │ ▼ federator/orchestrator │ ▼ renderers not crawler ↓ federator that understands every crawler ↓ renderers That distinction is subtle, but it's usually what determines whether the architecture stays clean after another 10–20 crawlers are added.

  1. Keyboard shortcuts the feature Gmail buries on purpose. This is the #1 reason people pay for Superhuman: speed. No mouse. Just keys. Gmail has the same thing. It's just turned off by default. Settings (gear icon) → See All Settings → General → Keyboard Shortcuts → ON. Save. Now: 1.C = compose 2.E = archive 3.R = reply 4.A = reply all 5.J/K = navigate up/down through emails 6.S = star 7.# = delete 8./ = search 9.G then I = go to inbox These are the same shortcuts Superhuman teaches you in onboarding. Gmail has had them for over a decade. They're just hidden behind one toggle that Google never promotes. 20 minutes of muscle memory. The mouse becomes optional.
