  Move away from Google as much as you possibly can. Dumping gmail should be your first step. All these american services will create problems deliberately in the future.

  If I had 3 months to break into AI Automation, here's exactly how I'd do it: Stage 1: API fundamentals. REST, webhooks, auth, rate limits, error handling. Stage 2: LLM basics. Tokens, context windows, when to use the $0.25 model vs the $15 one. Cost intuition is a skill. Stage 3: Prompting for systems. System prompts, few-shot examples, structured JSON outputs with validation. Stage 4: The glue layer. This is the actual job: connecting Gmail, Sheets, Slack, CRMs, payment tools. Master one orchestrator (n8n, Activepieces, Make) AND know when to drop into code. Stage 5: Orchestration patterns. Tool calling, retries, idempotency, human-in-the-loop approvals. The difference between a demo and a system a business trusts. Stage 6: RAG - the light version. Chunking, one vector DB, hybrid search. Most client work needs "answers from our docs," not a research pipeline. Stage 7: Evals and reliability. Test sets, accuracy scoring, regression checks. This is what separates $2K projects from $20K retainers. Stage 8: Security. Prompt injection defense, PII handling, output filtering. Non-negotiable the moment your agent touches email or customer data. Stage 9: Deploy boring. Docker, one cloud, logging you can actually read. Nobody pays extra for exotic infra. Stage 10: Ship publicly. Build 3 real automations for real problems. Document them. Post the numbers. The roadmap isn't the hard part. 3 months of actually building is.

  Mailneo just passed Google's CASA Tier 2 security audit. If your product touches Gmail data, you have to do this. Nobody writes about it. Here's what it cost, what they found, and the four months I lost by procrastinating. 1/First, what it even is. Read or write a user's Gmail and you're on a "restricted scope". Google requires a third party lab to audit your app before you can go live. Real audit. Scanner pointed at your product, plus a 55 question security questionnaire. 2/Cost: $855/year list. I paid $794 because I asked if there was a discount. There was. Always ask. 3/Timeline: 2 weeks from engaging the lab to Google accepting the letter. Scan on 28 July → results same day → fixes → questionnaire → two evidence rounds → letter issued 31 July → Google confirmed 1 Aug. Faster than I expected. 4/The scan found 14 things. 0 critical 0 high 1 medium 4 low 9 informational Everything has to be fixed or formally disputed. Even the informational ones. 5/The one real bug was a DOM XSS. Not in the product. In a free email signature generator on our marketing site. Every text field was escaped properly. The colour picker wasn't, and that value went straight into a CSS attribute. Humbling. 6/My favourite false positive: The scanner flagged "Source Code Disclosure - SQL" because a blog post of ours contains the sentence "delete from each." Dispute these. Don't try to fix them. 6/Google's first reply told me to swap my scope for two narrower ones. Those narrower scopes don't authorise the API calls we make. So I pushed back with the specific method names and the exact scopes each accepts. They agreed. That recommendation is a form letter. 8/Now the expensive part. I passed Google's scope review in January. Got a deadline of 5 April for the assessment. I was busy shipping. Ignored it. The whole verification lapsed. Had to redo everything from scratch in July. 9/The audit took 2 weeks. Procrastinating on it cost 4 months. Classic solo founder move: pick the fun work over the boring work that's actually blocking your distribution. 11/Best advice if you're facing this: • Ask for the discount • Send command output, not prose, when they want evidence • Declare your gaps honestly, it's faster • Start the day the deadline email arrives 12/Renews in July 2027. Reminder is already set for May. Ask me anything, I had nobody to ask.

  I just tried @try_caddy It’s a great product, but here are a few things I didn’t like: - It pushed Gmail before I asked for it - it kept pitching features instead of following the conversation - It asked too many questions back-to-back - Even after I asked it to slow down, it kept doing the same thing - When I was being serious, it replied with “lol” and emojis - It understood my words, but not my mood None of these are obvious bugs. The assistant still replied. The conversation still moved forward. But the experience felt off. This is exactly what we’re solving at Agnost AI, and we recently got into YC S26. Agnost analyzes real user conversations and shows where agents become pushy, repetitive, confusing, or fail to understand user intent. Because the hardest agent failures aren’t always crashes. Sometimes the agent works perfectly, and the user still hates the experience. We’d personally love to help you improve your agents.

  When will someone use Claude to solve Erdos Problem No. 💯, getting my Gmail to sync with the mail app on my Apple Watch for more than a few days at a time?

  Google switched Gemini AI to default-on for Gmail, Chat, and Meet in October 2025. The class action describes it as accessing literally every email and attachment sent and received including financial and medical information. Turning off the first setting isn't enough. The second is on the same page, one scroll further down: Google Workspace smart features → Manage Workspace smart feature settings → uncheck both boxes → Save. Both settings need to be off. Then check the Gmail app separately settings don't sync between devices. Settings buried in two different places. The class action dismissed for lack of standing, with 21 days to refile. The opt-out architecture wasn't designed for finding. @liberdus doesn't require finding an opt-out there's no server holding your messages to opt out of.

  @fedesimio Please fix Apple MacOS calendar in Evernote. Users are moving away from Gmail/Google calendar with POP3 domain email removed from regular Gmail. I moved fully to MacOS Mail+Calendar+Reminders and Evernote.

  @shcallaway @sazabi imo as long as Notion has a good MCP server, it doesn't make sense to represent docs in markdown. You miss out on a lot of the niceties of a proper note-taking app. what I really want is a `universal_search` MCP that's able to combine the search tools from all my other integrations (GitHub, Notion, Granola, Gmail, etc.) -- I think that solves a lot of the fragmentation problems. (monorepos ftw btw)

  I’m happy @gmail finally released an update to fix the broken search feature (possibly due to AI/ Gemini integration?). With that being said, how can I get Gmail beta? @blakebarnes

  @Hamaadkhan @AshCrypto They know the algorithm so they can narrow down the possible answer/key/passphrase. Also bitcoin ledger has no rate limit in guess unlike iCloud or Gmail etc. it’s exploiting two critical weaknesses

  Gmail saves every email you ever sent. Unless you hunt it down and delete it.
