  Milk Road Stocks (@MilkRoadStocks) reported 50 seconds ago

  The market is punishing Google for having negative free cash flow - and these analysts think that's "surprisingly stupid." They proved the CapEx is working. Massive backlog. Growing margins. The computer being built is not slowing down. "They don't need the number one model... they have every single app that we all use. They know how to crawl the internet better, so they're going to create better agents than anyone." Distribution beats model rankings. -x- Google does not need the best AI model to win the AI race. "They have everything they need to dominate AI and they do not need to be the number one to dominate." Gemini itself is now approaching a billion monthly users. Gemini-powered AI Overviews inside Google Search passed a billion monthly users on its own while AI Mode also crossed a billion. Google's combined AI footprint reaches an estimated 2 billion people a month. ChatGPT crossed 1 billion monthly users in June. Google's ecosystem is already double that. The reason is simple. Gemini is not a destination app people have to choose to open. It is already inside Search, Docs, Gmail, Android and every YouTube transcript pulled through the browser. Most people using it do not even register that they are. OpenAI's business runs overwhelmingly on ChatGPT subscriptions. If usage does not convert to a paid tier, the revenue does not show up. Google has no such constraint. Search revenue hit $63.3 billion in Q2 2026, up 17% year over year, and Alphabet said the growth came from AI features. Google can also monetize the exact same Gemini usage through cloud, advertising, Android and its hardware line, none of which require anyone to ever pay for a Gemini subscription. That is the actual thesis turn here. Being the fourth or fifth best model is irrelevant when the distribution and the monetization paths are already built and already profitable. The stock has cooled off with the broader AI trade, down modestly over the past month and past quarter but it is still up 70% over the past year.

  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.

  Claude for Chrome trusts any click. That's the whole vulnerability. Security firm Manifold Security found that any browser extension installed alongside Claude for Chrome can hijack it into reading your Gmail, Google Docs, and Calendar — without you asking it to. The mechanism is small. Claude for Chrome listens for a user click before running one of nine built-in tasks. It never verifies whether that click is real. A different extension can forge one in six lines of code, and Claude treats the forged click exactly like a genuine one. Manifold rates this high severity by default. It becomes critical the moment "Act without asking" mode is on — the read happens silently, no confirmation, no trace. This is the same failure shape that keeps showing up across agent tooling this year: a trust boundary that checks whether an action is permitted in principle, but not whether the specific trigger for it is authentic. A click, a prompt, an API call — if the system trusts the signal without verifying its source, anything that can produce the signal gets the same access as the real thing. Worth separating from a bug you can patch once. This is a category: any agent that reacts to browser-level events (clicks, DOM changes, extension messages) needs to treat those events as untrusted input by default, the same way a server treats an HTTP request from an unauthenticated client. The convenience of "just click to confirm" quietly assumes the click can't be spoofed. It can. If you're running Claude for Chrome or any similar browser agent with elevated permissions: check whether "Act without asking" is on, and know that turning it off doesn't fix the underlying click-forgery gap — it just removes the silent version of it.

  🇰🇷 KOREA GAMBLING WORLD IS INSANE Years ago, I met a guy from South Korea on an old betting forum. Back then, forums were where serious bettors from around the world met. There was no Google Translate, no social media, and information didn't spread the way it does today. There were maybe ten of us from different countries, sharing whatever we could find from local newspapers to insider information. Looking back, that was probably the easiest time to make money in sports betting. But that's not really the story. Over the years, my Korean friend started telling me what gambling was actually like in South Korea, and honestly, it was nothing like I imagined. A Country That Tried to Ban Gambling Korea has some of the strictest gambling laws I've ever heard of. My friend told me there's only one casino where Korean citizens are legally allowed to gamble, and it's deliberately located in a remote mountain area, far from the major cities. What surprised me even more was learning that Koreans can even be punished for gambling abroad. Sports betting exists too, but it's heavily controlled by the government limited markets, low betting limits, and basically the opposite of what most bettors actually want. The idea seems to be simple: if gambling isn't easily available, people won't gamble. But from everything he told me, the opposite happened. The Illegal Market Took Over My friend started gambling when he was just 16 years old. Still in high school. He said it wasn't difficult at all. His friends introduced him to illegal betting sites, and before long they were even lending each other money to gamble with huge interest rates. One thing he told me has stayed with me ever since. The illegal websites were incredibly clever. Instead of opening a normal betting site, you'd first see what looked like an ordinary email login page. Almost like Gmail. Only after entering your username and password would the hidden sportsbook or online casino appear. That was their way of staying under the radar. Visiting Korea Changed Everything After about five years of talking online almost every day, he invited me to visit South Korea. Seeing the country in person was a completely different experience. I visited one of 17 casinos that locals aren't allowed to enter. The only reason I could get inside was because I was a foreign tourist. My passport was my ticket through the door. My friend needed to stay home. That's when our conversations became much more personal. The Part That Shocked Me Most I asked him what happened when people couldn't repay gambling debts. I expected stories about violence. Instead, he laughed. He told me that's not really how it works in Korea. It's one of the safest countries in the world, so loan sharks don't usually rely on physical violence. They attack you psychologically. They collect phone numbers of your parents, relatives, friends even your employer. If you don't repay the debt, they threaten to expose everything. In a society where reputation and belonging matter so much, public shame can destroy someone's entire social life. For many people, that's a far greater punishment than getting beaten up. Then He Became Part of That World As the years passed, he became one of the few people in group who consistently made money from betting. He understood information better than almost anyone else. People respected him. They wanted his advice. Then he started lending money to other gamblers himself. One day he admitted something that really surprised me. He said he had started psychologically pressuring people who owed him money. The same system that had once trapped him had slowly turned him into part of it. That's when I realized how gambling doesn't just change your bankroll. It changes people. And Then... He Disappeared After almost ten years of friendship, he vanished. One day he stopped replying. His accounts went inactive. No messages. Nothing. He still owed me around €2,000–3,000. Honestly, the money wasn't the biggest loss. Considering everything we'd earned together over the years, it wasn't life-changing. What stayed with me was never knowing what actually happened. My own theory is that he eventually got trapped in gambling debts himself and chose to disappear completely. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe I'll never know. But every time someone tells me strict gambling laws solve the problem, I remember my friend and everything he showed me about the hidden gambling world in South Korea.

  @boneGPT It's when you don't notice it being there because it solves a problem without making more issues. Gmail spam filters are rudimentary machine learning filters (caveman AI). I mostly don't think about it because I don't check my email anymore.

  Hey @gmail, please make “Reply all” the default when an email is sent to multiple people. My friends and I frequently hit “Reply,” assuming we’re responding to the group, only to realize Gmail sent it to one person. This has caused confusion for years. Please fix it! Most of us aren’t chatting in 500-person corporate mailing lists. Design public Gmail for normal conversations too, make that the default.

  @99xFope @moonpay You just need to create your MoonPay account using the same Gmail account that received the airdrop on the web app. It’s best if you already completed your MoonPay KYC beforehand, though doing it right now is pretty slow and taking quite a while due to high traffic!

  @BetterCeo Sorry I thought they were using public data to train the AI but not private. Yes if the contract terms say they can use the information, that's a big problem for privilege. Fifteen years ago people thought this would be an issue for gmail btw which could target ads based on email content. I think we got through that one just fine.

  I signed up for @Avis preferred this morning. Not their fault but my gmail was blocking their verification. Took 4 calls to Avis before someone was able to change my email address. Got hung up on twice. 1 hour of my life wasted so Avis can save money. Ok, I'm committed. So I go to book my car. Enter all info (even logged in as preferred I still have to fill details like my address name cc). Fine. Go to book it and click done. Repeated error on cc number. I re-enter manually. Double and triple check the numbers, address, everything. "Error on cc number". Another 10 minutes lost. So I booked Enterprise in less than 5 min and even their process wasn't smooth. Are companies just trying to lose business?

  Most creators miss brand deals because the email is buried under 300 generic pitches. One indie dev built Popsuites to fix exactly that — the founder reports about $1,000/month in revenue. How it works: - Creators connect their public business inbox. - AI scans incoming mail, detects real sponsorship opportunities, and surfaces them or sends an alert. - Subscription model. A few dozen users at ~$20/month gets you to that number. The tech is simple: GPT API for intent recognition, Gmail API for access. The hard parts are trust (email is private — clarify read-only, no storage) and distribution (the founder relies on IndieHackers and SEO, not growth hacks). $1k MRR is small, but the willingness to pay proves the pain. A missed brand deal can be worth thousands, so $20 as insurance is rational. The lesson: small, specific pains pay — creators will pay to never miss a big client again.

  A habit that made me a better email copywriter. It’s not writing more. It’s not using chatgpt to review your copy. It’s not reading copywriting books. It’s breaking down great copy. How did I become a better email copywriter? Every morning ill open my gmail from brands, copywriting gurus, and content creators emails. I'd break down the subject line. I’d break down every line I’d break down CTA. After a few months I noticed I got better at understanding how great copy should be written. I started recognizing patterns. So if you want to become a better email copywriting… Start breaking down every single line in copy.
