  Following the events of my google account being hacked and the youtube channel going down along with it. It cannot be revived anymore because the hacker changed all of my recovery infos on that Gmail. Team youtube has already disabled the Google account.

  What I most regret most about the malware infection on a client PC is that @brave Browser would have avoided it. And I thought of upgrading all clients to Brave browser for a while now. I reconstructed the malware route completely. Here is how the stupid malware infection got onto the PC and how Brave would have avoided it: 1. user got a zip attachment in Gmail 2. the zip contains PDFs and the user can't open/preview them 3. Google suggests some apps and third-party apps on the top (why though @google @gmail) like Zip-Extractor 4. Which brings the user to a very high-quality landing page with ads: always a great sign for good secure software 5. User then completely brainfarts, confuses one of these deceptively placed ads for the actual download link and downloads the exe 6. And then of course opens the downloaded exe Best of all the client even called to say that she couldn't open the zip file after trying and never mentioned any of the stupid bullshittery f*ck she did earlier. Lesson learned. I never locked down client PCs. This is my first infection in 20 years. Trained employees. Download policies and self-responsibility in place. One stupid brain fart. 10 hours of stupid work for me. How would Brave have prevented this? It would have blocked the deceptive ads. So go install Brave Browser on your client PCs.

  Fair callout, most of what we've posted has centered one company's AI product. Not because it's uniquely the problem. Dec 2025: a flaw called GeminiJack let attackers leak Gmail, Calendar, and Docs data through Gemini, zero clicks needed.

  Engineering Behind the Internet — Day 8/14 You hit Send on an email. A few seconds later, it appears in someone's inbox—even if they're on the other side of the world. Unlike WhatsApp, email doesn't require both people to be online. So how does Gmail deliver billions of emails every day? Let's break it down. 🧵

  Email platforms have gotten 10 times stricter in Al detection which hampers deliberately and likelihood of flags esp Gmail. True but they got stricter because it's slowing ads spend not AI. My ads spend for awareness campaign is down by over 60% YOY because of email channel.

  Just got @bot for the administrative side of my company. Very impressed and fairly easy to use for the average person. The only thing I had problems with was linking it to my quickbooks. There is no plugin (as of now hopefully) and when I tried to give it access through its browser, it was flagged and didnt allow it to sign in. I also couldn't get into my outlook email account. My Gmail worked perfectly.

  The $200-a-month assistant was the only real fix for inbox overload. Then inference costs collapsed. Mailcrest is an always-on AI triage agent — sorts Gmail and Outlook by urgency, drafts replies, pushes priorities to your phone, sends a daily summary. Live soon.

  MCP design is hugely underappeciated. Optimizing both the shape and implementation of tools can yield incredible cost and performance improvements. Treating MCP as a thin API wrapper is a terrible mental model. Codependent, optional, or too many tool parameters lead to false negatives. Poor server and tool descriptions thwart the agent's tool selection reasoning step. Lack of normalization transfers deterministic work on the API side into nondeterministic work for the agent. High quality error responses are nearly as important as the success case. I recently experimented with tool response Large Result Offloading and saw token consumption drop by nearly 30% in data-rich applications. For agentic workloads, input tokens are like throwing a pebble in a pond. The original token cost is multiplied by cacheability and compaction concerns later. Just a little more thoughtfulness in MCP design can dramatically improve tool success rate and token efficiency, especially for complex surfaces. I could design a Gmail MCP that would drop costs by 50% versus a generic wrapper. And since the tool layer is a common abstraction point, the gains compound across an entire organization.

  Matt Shumer just got a Gmail banned because an agent was using it. This one made me pause, because honestly I'm guilty of the same thing. My bots run on the same Gmail my clients reply to. It works great right up until the day it doesn't, and xAI's own docs are clear that every bot on your account shares the same logins. One eager bot, one weird email, and it's not the bot that gets flagged, it's the domain. So that's my fix for this week: the bots get their own mailbox, and the inbox clients reply to goes back to being mine. Everyone shows the agent demo. Nobody shows the blast radius.

  @mattcassinelli The biggest problem I didn't cover in the article is freaking integrations. All this SaaS was built as an old gated world. You have to jump through so many painful hoops to offer this stuff seamlessly to people, which is why places like Composio and PipeDream and OpenConnect exist and charge access fees. Take Google. If you want to offer deep access to Google services in a commericial, with just two features (Drive read access and email send in Gmail) you have to go through a secuirty audit every year, and get approval from them, etc. That's just so you can connect to Gmail in one click. Pure computer use that just runs the browser perfectly doesn't exist yet and there is no "I authed to X service and now can do whatever I can do with my paid account, but as an agent now" for most services. For some, but not for many. Agents exist in a world of walls that were deliberately built.

  I still don't understand why everyone isn't doing this. Thanks to this setup, in 3 weeks I offloaded work I was paying an assistant $2000 a month to do On August 11, xAI shipped Grok Bot, a thing that replaces headcount, not tokens. Quiet launch, and in 10 days the pattern went around AI twitter under the name "chief of staff": one boss Bot plus 5 narrow worker Bots. They all run in parallel, and only the chief is allowed to message you You give each Bot a login to one service (SEC, Gmail, CRM, X), assign a role, put it on a schedule. At night they work without you, in the morning a brief lands on your desk with flags already sorted. You only approve. The more cycles run, the sharper the chief's filter gets Here is the gist: Activate SuperGrok Plus or Cursor Pro+ (access opened on August 21, before that it was locked on Heavy at $300) Install Grok Bot on Mac, Windows, Linux, or iPhone Set up 5 narrow Bots, each one on a single source and a single job Add a sixth one, the Chief. The only Bot allowed to message you. The other 5 filter through him Put it on a schedule and write your first brief like you'd DM a coworker Five minutes to set up, and you never sort your inbox in the morning again Full guide with per-agent prompts and Chief validation rules is in the article.

  If you are starting your first YouTube channel, you don't need a special IP, you don't need an RDP, and you definitely don't need to worry about YouTube shadow-banning you. Why? Because you should create your first channel on the exact same Gmail account you are using right now to watch YouTube videos. Your current Gmail already has a 100% Trust Score—provided you haven't engaged in any spamming. The conditions are simple: --It must be your daily-use Gmail. --Your mobile phone is connected to it. --You use it regularly to send and receive emails. --You use it for other social media platforms, not just YouTube. YouTube hates robotic behavior, and rightly so. YouTube needs real, ordinary people to join the platform and become creators. Right now, you are just a regular person. If you create a channel, you are highly valuable to YouTube because you naturally meet their Trust Score criteria. So, don't buy an IP. Don't get an RDP. Don't even change your browser. Just log into your Gmail on any laptop or computer, and leave it logged in on your phone. Just make sure the computer you're using doesn't belong to a spammer and is just a regular home PC. Start uploading videos. But remember: don't attack the platform all at once. No normal person creates and uploads 10 videos in a single day. Move like a regular human: --Upload a video some days, skip others. No strict, robotic routine. --You don't have to post every single day. --You don't always have to publish at the exact same time. --Your videos don't always have to be the exact same length. Keep things varied. Just act natural, and YouTube will treat you naturally. The second you show artificial behavior, YouTube will catch you instantly. Google knows the name of your Wi-Fi. They know who is connected, how many devices are on the network, what gets uploaded from that IP address, what apps are being used, and what content is being consumed. They know everything. Your only job is to act like a normal human being. If you create 10 channels and manage to maintain normal human behavior across all 10, you will never face the "0 views" or "0 impressions" problem. But the moment YouTube senses a robot, a habitual spammer, or a scammer, your path to success will be blocked. My next post will be about, how to look natural, even if you have 100s of channels running.

  Gmail just warned, "Emails may stop coming after September 21" Today, I suddenly saw a warning on my Gmail "Out of storage." All 15 GB out of 15 GB was already used. And the message was clear New emails may stop being received after September 21, 2026. Google’s offer was right there 30 GB Storage ₹59 with the first 3 months at ₹15 But is paying for more storage really the only option ? Absolutely not. My friend suggested checking these 5 things first Gmail: Delete old emails with large attachments Google Drive: Remove large and unnecessary files Google Photos: Clean up old large videos/photos Trash plus Spam: Permanently empty both Search Gmail for "larger 10M" to find large emails And here’s the most important thing Your 15 GB storage is not just for Gmail. It is shared across Gmail Google Drive Google Photos. So even if you do not have many emails, your storage can still be full because Google Photos or Drive may be using most of it. Paying ₹59 for more storage is the easiest solution But before spending money, try 10 minutes of digital cleaning. Because sometimes the problem is not that we have too little storage, It’s that we have way too much digital junk.

  i ran a prospect list through a scoring tool. 89 out of 89 contacts came back clean. then i opened the actual list. one contact was using a Gmail address. one company had been closed for months. there were duplicates sitting three rows apart. the tool checks for bounces. it doesn't check if the person is a real fit for what you're selling. a "clean" list and a strategic list are two completely different things. tools catch deliverability problems. only your eyes catch wrong-fit contacts. i would have sent 89 emails feeling confident and wasted a full day on a list that was strategically useless. do you review your lists manually before sending, or do you trust the score?
