    If one prompt can: • issue refunds • send invoices • access Gmail • edit databases • deploy code then that prompt deserves a security review

    Day 19 of learning System Design. Today I finally understood something I've never questioned before. Why doesn't Gmail, Spotify or ChatGPT ask me to log in every hour? The answer isn't: "Your session stays alive forever." It's actually a clever trade-off between security and user experience. Here's the flow: • You log in once. • The server gives you a short-lived Access Token (JWT). • When it expires, your app quietly uses a Refresh Token. • The server verifies it and issues a new JWT. • Your original request is retried automatically. You never notice any of this. A month ago I have "JWT" here in x and I did not what was back then Today they finally clicked.

    guy drowned his GPU rig in coolant and it now pulls $127k/month the whole stack sits submerged in liquid, running a claude agent wired into github, postgres, slack and gmail at the same time the immersion cooling lets it run flat-out 24/7 without ever throttling - which is the only reason it can handle the load it does the video looks fake - cards fully sunk in fluid, bubbles streaming off the boards, gold risers glowing under the surface. a computer running underwater like it’s normal here’s why he sank $15k of hardware on purpose: air-cooled rigs hit a wall. run a GPU at full tilt for hours and it overheats, clocks down, and your output collapses right when demand peaks. submerge it and that wall vanishes - the cards never step down, never slow, never sleep that stability is what let him stop selling per-client and start selling per-seat to a single company what changed his pricing entirely: instead of 40 small clients, he landed 3 mid-size firms and charges per employee using the system → github MCP reads repos, opens PRs, reviews code → postgres MCP (read-only, always) answers data questions live → slack MCP posts updates and summaries → gmail MCP drafts client replies for approval each firm runs 60-90 employees through his rig, every one hammering the agent all day. air cooling would’ve melted trying to serve that concurrency. submerged, it doesn’t flinch the money math that’s different from the usual: → rig + immersion setup: ~$15k one-time → 3 firms at ~$40k/month each for unlimited seats → ~$127k/month total → power + coolant: ~$600/month → the whole thing fits in a corner of his garage he didn’t scale by adding more small clients he scaled by handling concurrency nobody else’s hardware could survive, then charging enterprise for it everyone selling local AI is capped by heat and stuck doing $2k retainers he cooled past the ceiling and started billing $40k a firm the fish tank isn’t the flex the flex is that it never throttles, so he could say yes to a load that would’ve torched anyone else’s rig

    @firstadopter Story once about how a bug in Apple’s App Store meant Gmail had to service 100x traffic than usual, and until Apple responded they couldn’t do anything. So they called infra and infra said “sure no problem” and handled it. How the mighty have fallen

    Hey @gmail when are you going to fix the bug on iPhone where a deleted message continues to be visible even after it’s deleted? Force closing the app is the only way to clear it.

    @TMobileHelp bug report: Web Guard & Scam Block appear to drop 5G TLS handshakes, blocking apps (Gmail, WhatsApp) from connecting. Disabling them fixed the issue. I have detailed tech notes. Please DM if you think an engineering ticket might be required on this one.

    @purpcountry @tookyaboyfriend @ORNGSHARKS it’s very easy to make gmail accounts, since favecheer hated bsb i could see them making a fake email like that to either bring kate down with them or anyone from bsb, if the fbi is still putting this under investigation then that means favecheer was making sure no one knew them

    @TutaPrivacy Tuta Mail doesn't help anything as long as you still send to providers like Gmail, Yahoo, etc. Signal is centralized + you have to register --> use SimpleX for maximum privacy. Tor is too slow for daily use --> Vanadium, Librewolf, Mullvad, Brave...

    🚨 BREAKING: Gmail says you're out of storage? Stop deleting emails. Your inbox probably isn't the problem. I freed 18GB in minutes by cleaning something most people never check. Here's how: 🧵👇

    BREAKING NEWS: STOP deleting emails when Gmail tells you you're out of storage. The biggest storage waste is hiding somewhere else. I freed up 18 GB in minutes without touching my inbox. Most people delete years of emails chasing a problem that was never there. Here's exactly how to check it:

    Every login lure email has detectable signals. Sending address: not from the real platform. Gmail account or lookalike domain. Greeting: generic. "Dear Customer" not your actual name. Urgency: artificial deadline. 24 hours.

    Breaking: Google permanently locks people out of their accounts with no warning and no way to reach a human. Gmail, Photos, Drive, every login. Gone, with no appeal. Here is the backup that protects you, in under an hour:

  • peter_ishere
    peter_ishere (@peter_ishere) reported

    I'm 15. My startup has 23 paying users and $460 MRR after 1 month, but I'm gonna kill everything and start from zero. Problem is: 99% of people who see it and try it, don't use it. A lot of eyeballs have been landing on Dirac from organic content, but those people who do try it out, churn way too fast. Not because landing page is bad. Not because product is poorly made. But because of 2 reasons: 1. There's no need for another email agent. The bottleneck has never been the tool. It's the founder who's using it. So there's no way to make a tool to beat that. 2. Emotional cost of switching from Gmail is TOO high.

    @BarkJack_ @AreYouFNKidding @Karancarte2289 I am glad to be back, too. I lost my old account to a glitch. Seriously...a freaking glitch. I had signed up with a gmail account. Then one day shortly after I made my way back to Megxit Twitter, X logged me out & when I signed in, I had clicked 'sign in with google' instead of typing in my email & password. That deleted my account and created a brand new one. There was nothing X could do they said.
