  @DropboxSupport I have been trying to contact support unsuccessfully. It seems that my account has been deactivated by accident when another account linked to it was cancelled. I would love to hear back on how to fix this issue. My account was recently renewed so should be there. Thanks

  @freekmurze It's the most stable beta in last 15 years. These apps I also use still work: Dropbox, PHP, Conductor. I did not encounter any issues, besides sometimes a lag here and there (regular beta stuff).

  @thekevinjon The only problem is getting zezwolenia na pracę. I was going to interview with Dropbox last week and turns out they are happy to interview me and submit my case to Mazowiecki Urząd Wojewódzki. ... and then wait for 8 months until my case is approved, and I can actually start working. That's a huge deal-breaker for a lot of engineers like myself who are less than 5 years into staying in Poland. I'm on JDG for example. I came by PBH visa back in 2023 legally, and I've been successful since. I earned quite a bit of money and spent it all in Poland, 12% tax + $500 ZUS monthly. But the moment I want to join bigtech and earn even more money for Poland (Dropbox have 300-400k+ PLN base salary for Senior SWE), I'm just denied. Please, please... let the Dobby be free...

  @WestHerr there and put the key in a Dropbox instead of just checking me in. The little things make a difference. Never had these issues with @NorthtownAuto . They catered to whatever we wanted to do with purchases and service was always on point. Only bought from you because they did

  “You still use pull requests? I wouldn’t even do that anymore. Just push it straight to trunk, have your agent summarize it.” That’s @gregce10, co-founder and CPO of SpecStory. He previously worked at GitHub, Dropbox and Google, and was CPO at Pluralsight. And he kept going: - PRs are the limiting gate when agents produce more code than humans can review. - The model should never decide when its own work is finished. Put the deterministic checks somewhere it cannot access. - *** is probably here to stay. Whether GitHub remains the platform, “we’ll see.” @HanchungLee came at the same problem from the evaluation side. Han is Director of Machine Learning at Moody’s and works on SkillsBench, evaluating skills across combinations of models and agent harnesses. - An agent is the model plus its harness. You need to evaluate the complete system. - A green check proves nothing if the agent found a way to game the task. - Your agent could delete the failing test and declare success. Both are figuring out how to turn masses of agent-generated slop into signal. Greg mined 516 saved agent sessions to recover the decisions and intent behind the work, identify recurring practices, and forge the ones he approved into reusable skills. Han runs skills inside controlled environments, grades the result, and preserves the complete trajectory so we can inspect what the agent actually did. Preserve the intent. Inspect the trajectory. Verify the result. Turn what works into skills. Full episode in the replies 👇

  @mitsuhiko Similarly, I still use the old version before 7. They try to force you to bind to their server-dependent version. I prefer to use dropbox to synchronize.

  @peterhowell I used the original pak0.pak. I tested both Dropbox and PixelDrain hosting and tested the exact URL format from the README The app reaches "Fetching PAK" but then fails with "Could not fetch PAK URL" and a 403 error. What hosting method did you use when testing your own pak0.pak?

  I'm convinced this kind of environment-setting is even more important online. The digital equivalent of swapping a cassette in a studio is stopping to go hunt down a file in Dropbox or Drive.

  Indian Government: "We've blocked Telegram to protect the NEET exam." The Internet: So the problem was... Telegram? Not the people selling fake papers? Not the organised scam networks? Not the thousands of mule bank accounts? Not the hundreds of disposable SIM cards? Not the fake payment gateways? Not the people exploiting students' panic and desperation? Solution: Block Telegram. Meanwhile: ✅ Discord still exists. ✅ WhatsApp still exists. ✅ Signal still exists. ✅ Slack still exists. ✅ Email still exists. ✅ Google Drive still exists. ✅ Dropbox still exists. ✅ OneDrive still exists. ✅ iMessage still exists. ✅ Bluetooth still exists. ✅ AirDrop still exists. ✅ The entire web still exists. Scammers: "No problem. See you tomorrow on another platform." Meanwhile, millions of legitimate users who rely on Telegram for: College and study groups Open-source communities Cybersecurity research Software development Startups and businesses Education and learning News and information sharing are left wondering what they did wrong. The platform changes. The abuse doesn't. Target the criminals. Not the communication tools.

  this post has been up for just about a day > 10+ leads for long-term packaging work > almost 200 new followers > impressions up across the whole account yet I declined every single lead I've never worked on a per-project basis, always valued long-term relationships but recently I decided to make it even more exclusive I keep the number of channels i work with deliberately VERY small so each one gets my full strategic attention but no matter how selective I am, this type of work has a ceiling I can only work with so many channels at once so I started building something bigger, that is beyond my time and solves a real problem all creators face youtube has become a real industry, with creators running teams of 5, 10, 15+ people but the tools haven't caught up everyone's still spreading their production across notion, slack, drive/dropbox, frame, and more tools just to run their channels because nothing was built specifically for youtube production until now. @feedzyio

  Is uploading on Clips4Sale not working for anyone else? I can only get it to work if I do it through Dropbox, the usual upload button isn’t working

  This is how you share a file when you do not trust Google, Dropbox, or the government. A free tool called OnionShare sends it directly through Tor. Nothing needs to sit permanently on someone else's server. Here's what actually happens when you use it. You drag a file into the app. Your own computer turns into the server. Tor wraps it, and you get a long address ending in .onion that you send to whoever needs the file. They open it in Tor Browser and pull the file straight off your machine. You close the app, the address dies. Compare that to how everyone else moves files. You drop it in Drive, Google keeps a copy. You use WeTransfer, that link lives on their infrastructure for a week, logged and tied to your IP. Every one of those services is a promise that a company will behave well, forever, under any amount of legal pressure. OnionShare removes the company from the sentence. Micah Lee built it in 2014. He'd worked with the journalists handling the Snowden documents and watched how many ways a source could get burned just trying to hand over a file. So he built the thing that removes the middle. It does three things. Send files with no size limit and no account. Chat with someone and keep zero record of it. Host an entire website off your laptop that disappears from the internet the moment you shut the lid. The New York Times, The Guardian, and The Intercept all point sources at this. Those are newsrooms betting other people's freedom on a free download. The interface looks like a file picker from 2011. Someone spent years making the hardest privacy problem in computing feel like using WinZip, and that's the actual achievement here. A scared person at 2am is not going to configure a server. They can drag a file into a window. It is completely open source. Most people will never need this. The ones who do don't get a second try if they picked the wrong app. What do you think about this?

  Senior engineer just dropped a GPT-5.6 stress test after burning around $200K on API usage: 00:00 - $180K–$240K spent testing GPT-5.6 in Fast Mode 02:43 - The model using browsers, dashboards and settings like a remote operator 05:32 - 67 projects and 20+ hour autonomous sessions 07:07 - Lakebed, T3 Code and native app rewrites in 2–4 hours 15:08 - Rust compiler experiments, 18x speedup and a $91K Dropbox-style build 17:46 - GPT-5.6 fixing a broken Linux GRUB boot through KVM 22:56 - 3D games, weird assets and the remaining frontend taste problem It is a field test for agent loops The future edge is not the prompt It is the loop that can keep working after the prompt stops being useful

  @Dropbox I’ve been dealing with an issue for a few weeks now, and your AI customer chatbox has been unable to resolve it. It keeps looping through the same troubleshooting steps that haven’t worked, and I’ve already spent over three hours on it. "It looks like our chat has wandered into areas I'm not equipped to handle effectively. Unfortunately, I can only help with Dropbox-related questions, and I'm unable to help you with this topic." I’ve been a customer since 2009. It’s disappointing to reach this point, but this level of support is unacceptable.
