  Stop using recruiting software to email coaches. It lands in junk. They never open it. Send from a real Gmail account. That is the entire fix.

  Chat Control 1.0 passed without a single MEP changing their mind. The vote that killed it in March and the vote that revived it in July had almost the same numbers, the difference was a procedural rule nobody outside Brussels was watching. Run the actual mechanics, because the “passed by default” framing is doing real work here. In March, the European Parliament voted 311 against, 228 in favor, rejecting an extension of the temporary law that lets platforms like Gmail, Snapchat, and Facebook Messenger voluntarily scan for known CSAM. That should have ended it. Instead, the EU Council adopted the Commission’s original text as a second-reading position in July, which triggered a different legal threshold entirely: Parliament could now only block it with an absolute majority of all 720 members, 361 votes, not simply more votes against than for. In the actual July vote, 314 MEPs opposed it, more than opposed it in March, and it still passed, because absences and abstentions count as support under that rule. Here’s what the amendment actually changed, and it matters more than the “chat control” branding suggests. MEPs explicitly exempted end-to-end encrypted services like WhatsApp and Signal from the law’s scope. This wasn’t a new concession; true end-to-end encryption already made server-side scanning technically impossible, since neither the platform nor anyone but the two parties involved holds the decryption key. What the exemption formally rules out is any future attempt to extend this specific temporary law into encrypted spaces, not a rollback of protections that were previously in place there. The law that did pass applies only to platforms that can already access message content directly, Gmail, Snapchat, Messenger, Skype, Xbox, using hash-matching against known CSAM databases, AI classification for new material, and text analysis for grooming patterns. It authorizes this scanning; it does not require it. Supporters, including the rapporteur who backed the extension, argue the alternative is a legal gap that stops platforms from continuing detection work that has directly led to arrests and rescues. Critics, including privacy researchers and MEPs like Markéta Gregorová, argue the procedural route used to revive a rejected bill undermines Parliament’s own rules regardless of the underlying merits of CSAM detection itself. The permanent framework, Chat Control 2.0, is still being negotiated, and it’s the version that would introduce mandatory client-side scanning even on encrypted platforms, the change privacy advocates consider the actual red line. This vote didn’t decide that fight. It just kept the temporary, voluntary version alive while it continues.

  @DaveHowe @Tsartoshi Proton Mail has put its server in Norway, because it did not trust Swiss datacenters anymore. so that was (at leas commercially) a good move. They have a number of integrated services. They are safer than gmail or other providers. Tutanota in Germany has similar anonymity.

  "Avoid spam trigger words" is advice from 2015. That's not how Gmail decides anymore. Promotions placement is about engagement and sending patterns, not the word "free." Fix the behavior, not the vocabulary.

  MIT 6.566 Lecture 6 examines Google's data center security architecture as a comprehensive plan for dealing with both known and unknown attacks. This thread breaks down how Google connects every security component from hardware boot to user data access, creating tight arguments for why operations should be allowed. Google's security goals center on confidentiality and integrity of customer data for both cloud customers and applications like Gmail. They also prioritize availability through denial-of-service resistance and maintain low development friction so engineers can build secure applications efficiently. Accountability appears through extensive logging and access transparency systems. The threat model spans insider attacks from compromised engineers, physical intrusions into data centers, malicious hardware in shipped servers, software bugs across the stack, network adversaries monitoring traffic, discarded hardware containing sensitive data, and malicious customer workloads running alongside trusted services. Google designs explicitly for damage control when attacks succeed.

  OPENAI SHIPPED GPT-5.6 AND CHATGPT WORK. THE REAL WEAPON IS PRICE, NOT IQ. OpenAI shipped two things today. One of them is a costume change. GPT-5.6 landed as three models. ChatGPT Work is a new agent on top. The feeds say "new agent does your work." The real launch is the price sheet. Sol, the flagship, costs $5 per million input tokens and $30 output. That's not flagship pricing. That's what you paid for a mid-tier model a year ago. The gate half the feeds skipped Context first. Two weeks ago the US government cut GPT-5.6 access down to a small group of vetted partners over national security. The gate held about 12 days. Restrictions lifted July 8, public release July 9. Same day SpaceXAI shipped Grok 4.5. The frontier now ships when the government clears it, not when the model is ready. Anthropic went through the exact same thing with Fable and Mythos in June. A pattern, not a one-off. Three models, price as the weapon GPT-5.6 is three models, not one. Sol is the flagship. Terra is the everyday workhorse. Luna is cheap and fast. Price per million tokens, in/out: Sol $5/$30, Terra $2.50/$15, Luna $1/$6. Terra matches GPT-5.5 quality at half the cost. Luna is the cheapest entry in the line. Altman told CNBC Sol is 54% more token-efficient on agentic coding. That's the message. Not "smarter." "Cheaper for the same result." And ultra: a mode inside Sol that spins up multiple agents in parallel and hands subtasks to submodels. The market counts token bills, not benchmarks. Enterprise thinks spend first now. OpenAI heard it and made price the argument. Today's real launch is unit economics, not intelligence. "Sol beats Fable 5, Luna beats Opus 4.8 at two-thirds the cost" are OpenAI's own benchmarks. Until independent runs, treat them as marketing. ChatGPT Work is Codex in a suit Now the "new agent." ChatGPT Work runs on Codex and GPT-5.6. It moves across your apps and files, stays on a project for hours, breaks it into steps, finishes on its own. Output: docs, sheets, slides, web apps. Inside sits a Unified Plugins Directory: Google Drive, Slack, Teams, Gmail, Outlook, Salesforce, GitHub, Canva, Dropbox, more. Call one with "@" or let the agent pick the source. Sounds familiar. This is OpenAI's second run at plugins. The first was 2023 and it flopped. Brockman admitted the models weren't ready back then. Honest read: hard to tell what's actually new. Scheduled Tasks, Computer Use, connectors already lived in ChatGPT and Codex. Long tasks and data sources worked before too. The real move isn't features. It's consolidation: on desktop, OpenAI is merging Codex and ChatGPT into one super app and putting Codex in front of people who don't code. The Anthropic mirror Here's the tell. This is the exact play Anthropic ran with Claude Code -> Cowork. Take a dev agent, strip the "for coders" label, hand it to knowledge workers. Cowork just hit web and mobile, timed to get ahead of this. Two labs, one bet: whoever owns the desktop app that touches your files and apps owns the knowledge-work layer. Chat is the storefront. The desktop is the land grab. What a practitioner does with it One: rebuild pipelines around price tiers. Route bulk work to Luna and Terra. Keep Sol and ultra for the 10% that needs the ceiling. Economics is a routing problem now, not a single-model choice. Two: the real unlock is the desktop with local file access, not the web. Free tier gets ChatGPT Work on desktop right away. Web and mobile roll by tier: Pro, Enterprise, Edu first, Plus and Business next. Three: billing is usage-based and shares one pool with Codex, ChatGPT for Excel, and Workspace Agents. Count tokens before, not after. A complex task burns quota quietly. Security: OpenAI touts Auto-Review, where senior models check important actions before they run, and claims it blocked 100% of protected-data extraction attempts in red-teaming. 100% in a lab is zero confirmations in ****. Test it yourself. Sober read The model war moved from IQ to unit economics. The product war moved from chat to the desktop that holds your files. Testers are already posting "best model I've touched." Maybe. That's day-one sentiment, not fact. The real scoreboard isn't a benchmark. It's the "AI spend" line in an enterprise budget. That's a market you can actually read. The window is the next couple weeks, before prices settle and everyone re-routes spend. Rebuild your routing around three models now and you enter the quarter with a smaller bill for the same work. Everyone else reads the thread and changes nothing.

  Kingsley E. Ezemenaka (Ph.D) (@Eyuskant) reported 39 minutes ago

  More MEPs voted NO than YES. It passed anyway. 314 voted to kill EU Chat Control. 276 voted to keep it. The measure survived because rejecting it required an absolute majority of 361, not just a majority of those present. Absences counted as support. Abstentions counted as support. It was rushed through on an urgent procedure the day before summer recess when attendance is lowest and attention is elsewhere. US tech companies can now scan your private messages without a warrant or any suspicion. Gmail. Instagram DMs. Snapchat. Discord. Xbox. iCloud Mail. Facebook Messenger. This is how rights actually disappear. Not in one dramatic moment. In procedural fine print, on a slow news day, while everyone is watching Tehran. How to protect yourself. Use end-to-end encrypted apps. Signal and WhatsApp were explicitly exempted and cannot be scanned by design. Move sensitive conversations there. Abandon unencrypted platforms for private matters. Gmail, Instagram DMs, Snapchat and Discord are now legally scannable. Turn on Advanced Data Protection for iCloud. Disable iCloud backup for iMessage to keep it truly encrypted. The lesson is old but permanent. Wherever you can, own the tool instead of borrowing it. Privacy is no longer a default. It is now a decision you have to make deliberately. Follow @Eyuskant for analysis that cuts through the noise

  Arthur verboon (@ArthurVerboon) reported 40 minutes ago

  @visegrad24 Is the statement of grok true? It’s passed today, yeah. The European Parliament has extended the temporary regulation (Chat Control 1.0) until April 2028. It was a weird vote — 314 against, 276 for — but because they needed an absolute majority of 361 to block it, it went through. How it works: it remains voluntary and server-side. It only applies to apps where the provider can already read the messages anyway — think Instagram DMs, Messenger, Gmail, Snapchat, Discord. They do hash-matching on known CSAM and some AI for new stuff. Real end-to-end encrypted chats (like Signal, or the default E2EE in WhatsApp) are explicitly excluded. They can’t and aren’t allowed to scan those. The big mandatory version with possible client-side scanning on your phone, that fight is still ongoing.

  So, contrary to this. If you don't have the patience to wait for your adsense to be approved yet again after following this steps. Then, get an already approved adsense (if you have or buy). Right on YouTube earnings page, click on *Change Association*, choose you already have adsense. Then it will request you sign in to the Gmail with adsense in in it. Link it and instantly your step 2 will be approved. Had it sorted out for my guy.

  The immediate future of ALL agents is coding agents, and although I could be wrong, I believe this surprising fact is going to be a HUGE boost for @typescript in particular. Let me explain. If your business wants an agent to assist with customer support, employee onboarding, outbound sales, or payroll, then the agent they need is actually a coding agent. The reason for this is quite simple: coding agents have an ability to leverage their training data to solve general-purpose problems, in ways shapes by the tools they have access to. An outbound sales agent assistant can talk to your knowledge base, pull some contacts from your CRM, analyze conversation history, do a web search to learn about each prospect, and then send email through your Gmail account to each prospect. Doing all of this stuff, and doing even more that the agent was never explicitly designed to do, requires the ability to write, test, and execute code for ad hoc, one-off problems. Only a coding agent can do that, and thanks to innovation at the level of the model and harness, a coding agent can do it well. Now, a true general-purpose coding agent can work in any code base, in any language, in any operating system, and with any tech stack. Of course, that type of coding agent is very useful to developers. However, it's overkill for most agentic systems. Most custom agents do not actually need to work with any code base or any language and on any operating system. They just need the ability to write code in some language (which has a lot of libraries) and execute on some platform. What is the ideal language and platform? I'd argue that @typescript fits the bill PERFECTLY. Since TypeScript compiles to Javascript, it can run securely, in a completely sandboxed way, inside V8 isolates, WASM, etc., all of which creates a compelling story for secure, efficient, and scalable custom agent execution. Moreover, because TypeScript adds types to Javascript, those types can be used to catch a lot of common bugs and runtime errors that a Javascript coding agent would have trouble catching in advance--allowing for far faster and more efficient solution of general-purpose problems. So, while general-purpose coding agents will of course need to support all programming languages, platforms, and tech stacks, custom agents are likely to be specialized -- while they will be coding agents, they don't need to work with any programming language, platform, or tech stack. They just need to work with one, and currently, the best option appears to be @TypeScript, for reasons of security, portability, type-safety, and efficiency. Is it any wonder TypeScript is home to some of the most amazing innovations currently happening in AI?

  @mistressdivy It varies where it’s coming from because it could be a data transfer issue (try again when next email comes) or the sender ignores it and emails you again for whatever purpose. You can look through the ‘manage subscriptions’ in gmail to see all the emails you’re subscribed to.
