  . @gmail Hello Google Support, My Google storage space has been exhausted, and I’ve already made payment twice to upgrade my storage. However, my storage is still showing as full, and the upgrade does not appear to be working. Could you please check my account and help resolve this issue? I would also appreciate it if you could verify the two payments I’ve made. Thank you.

  @GergelyOrosz Good post. Here's my take: connecting several Gmail accounts without a new tab per inbox is the boring win. Codex and Cowork still make you live in one login. That's why it feels like staff.

  @hfakos @Alonso_GD The sad conclusion: use gmail to reach and be reached by most of people. The one that hinders reachability and rejects mail from private servers. Something similar, or more acute, is the problem with the banks.

  Wild Gmail experience this week. I added a TXT DNS verification record to our return path subdomain (marketbeat dot analyst ratings dot net) in Cloudflare to add it to Google Postmaster Tools. Somehow that caused Gmail to think our CNAME record for that subdomain which points to SendGrid has no valid SPF record. Gmail starts blocking about 30% of our messages because they had no valid SPF record and weren't validated. Took about 36 hours to figure out. I removed the new TXT record and the issue fixed itself within an hour.

  “Review my [EMAIL] inbox using @[Outlook/Gmail/Etc plugin]. First, learn how I actually use email: who I talk to, what I respond to, what I ignore, my existing rules, newsletters, spam, and recurring workflows. Then infer:
• Who should be VIP
• What work should be prioritized
• What should be flagged
• What is noise
• Which existing rules are broken or redundant
• What can be automated • What’s likely being missed as a result of email clutter Do NOT change anything yet. Show me the system you’d build, including new rules, rules you’d remove, suggested VIPs, emails to unsubscribe from, and anything you’d automatically archive. Then ask me only the questions you can’t answer from the inbox itself so we can modify as necessary to create the optimal inbox to meet my needs before we implement it. Remove conflicting legacy rules. Create the new system. Unsubscribe from the junk. Archive the noise. Make sure important people and work reliably rise to the top. Keep it simple. A few great rules > 50 folders. Then QA the whole thing for conflicts and false positives.”

  the ecommerce teams heading into q4 with an unverified list aren't making a content problem. they're making a compliance problem. since november 2025 gmail, yahoo, and microsoft reject non-compliant bulk mail outright. not spam folder. outright. the list you built through the year is the list you're sending to in november. verify before q4. not during it. not after it underperforms.

  OPEN IT ON A PHONE Desktop Gmail ignores the code that makes email responsive. Your mobile layout works everywhere except one of the biggest inboxes on earth. TURN ON DARK MODE Some inboxes keep your colours. Some invert them. Some invert half. Your background and your text can move in opposite directions. CHECK YOUR IMAGES One wrong character in an image address and every recipient sees a broken box. Nobody tells you. The email just goes out broken. SEND IT ANYWAY Because the deadline was yesterday, and it looked fine in the preview.

  I used to think “agents in group chats” were a gimmick. Now I think the bigger problem is that too much strategy still lives in my head, and too many useful skills are too messy or sensitive(contain keys) to share cleanly. That’s what changed my mind. I’m starting to think a multiagent should become the default workspace for our growth team. Not because Slack or gmail are unusable. They’re just very good at holding messages, and not that good at holding work. What I actually want is one place where people can @ my Codex directly to ask positioning and strategy questions. A lot of the time the problem is not execution. It’s that people are operating on slightly different versions of what I want. For example, yesterday my growth team Mengyao and Alyssa pulled me into a meeting to ask what I meant by doing a small creator push for Okeight. Actually they could just ask my codex That kind of nuance gets lost constantly if the only interface is “ask Monica in a meeting.” And honestly, I also forget to sync strategy changes fast enough. Sometimes I change my mind on priorities, or realize an angle is wrong, or want to shift the goal slightly, and I just forget to tell everyone in time. Then different people are working off different versions of the strategy. Nothing is fully broken, but the team drifts. I also want the group to automatically turn the past week of work into a real weekly report. I’ve tried asking people to write trackers before, and it’s painful for everyone. Not everyone is trained to produce polished internal docs, and more importantly, they shouldn’t have to spend time doing that just to prove work happened. What I actually want from a weekly report is: - what worked - what didn’t - what content performed unusually well - whose priorities are off - where output quality is weak - which direction feels wrong That should be inferred from the work, not manually reconstructed afterward. Then there’s the skill-sharing problem. Some of the most useful internal skills are hard to share directly because they expose too much. Sometimes sharing a deep skill means exposing keys. Sometimes it means exposing messy internal setup. Sometimes it’s just too complicated to package cleanly. I built a pretty complex video editing skill recently, and it made this very obvious. In theory I want that capability to be reusable. In practice, sharing it cleanly is hard, and sharing it carelessly is dangerous. I also keep running into a simpler but equally stupid problem: the context already exists somewhere, but I forget to attach it. For example, Mengyao ran a Reddit reply test recently, and the doc from that experiment has a huge amount of signal in it. It could shape product direction, growth direction, and a lot of downstream decisions. But when I’m talking to Codex about strategy, I still sometimes forget to include it. That is such a stupid failure mode. I used to think “agents in group chats” were a toy. Now I increasingly think a lot of teams do not need a smarter agent first. They need a workspace where the agent is already sitting inside the context, absorbing strategy changes as they happen, and using the shared work without everyone manually re-explaining it. We’re going to test this internally for real. I’ll report back next month with what worked, what was annoying, and what turned out to be fake.

  The spirit of Spirit just sold for $10 million Google is buying Spirit Airlines' data out of bankruptcy. Emails, internal communications, spreadsheets, bookings, frequent flyer and HR records, all de-identified, for $10 million. Judge Sean Lane rules on the sale Wednesday. The obvious read is that Google wants more data. But de-identified data doesn't work for advertising, since you can't target someone you can't name, and Google already sees more airfare information through Google Flights than Spirit ever generated internally. An airline that went under in May is also a strange place to look for pricing wisdom. What's worth buying is the internal material. The emails and the spreadsheets they reference record how work moved through the company: a question gets asked, a document gets built, a decision gets made, a system gets updated. Consumer text is everywhere, and records of how an organization actually functions are not, which is what you need if you want models that operate inside workflows rather than talk about them. Google's own statement uses the word enterprise, and the runner-up bid of $7.5 million came from Mercor, a company whose entire business is sourcing training data for AI labs. When the second bidder isn't another airline, the market has told you what was being priced. The strange part is that Google isn't short on this data at all. It runs Gmail and Workspace and sits on possibly the largest collection of business correspondence in the world, and it has promised enterprise customers it will not train on their content, which is not a promise it can quietly break. So it has the material and no permission to use it. What $10 million buys is clean title, a court approved dataset nobody can sue over, at a moment when everyone else is defending scraping claims. Dead companies can agree to things live ones can't. Any of this is worth paying for because the public supply is running down. Epoch AI's 2024 analysis put the stock of quality public human text at roughly 300 trillion tokens and projected it would be consumed between 2026 and 2032, a window that opens this year, and access has closed faster since than the arithmetic alone suggests. A census of the top 100,000 domains this July found 19.1% blocking at least one AI crawler, and in September Cloudflare begins blocking mixed use crawlers by default across its entire free tier. Private operational records are the obvious next reserve, and they are almost untouched. Epoch left them out of its estimate because private data is fragmented and legally too messy to use at scale, which is precisely the condition a bankruptcy court removes. That makes Wednesday's ruling more interesting than the sale. If it goes through, every bankruptcy from here has a new asset to offer, and the value will depend on how well documented the industry already is. A corner store has nothing worth buying, since you can watch how it works from the sidewalk. A hospital or a law firm is the opposite, because even with names removed the record shows how a case moves through the organization, who escalates what to whom, and which exceptions get made. That knowledge lives in internal systems and in people's heads and appears nowhere public. The catch is that the supply is biased toward failure, since no healthy company would sell its internal record, so every dataset that reaches the market comes from an operation that didn't work. That's useful for learning how a process runs, and much less useful for learning what good judgment looks like.

  Built something that's been quietly saving me every morning. I work with a US client, so most bug reports land in my inbox overnight while I'm asleep. Used to mean waking up, opening gmail, reading through everything, mentally triaging what's actually broken before I'd even had coffee. Now there's an @evedev_ agent connected to my Gmail that runs at 8am. Goes through the night's emails and pulls out anything that's actually a reported bug or issue. Posts it into a Slack channel. From there another agent, @cursor_ai, sitting in that same channel picks it up. It has access to my GitHub repo, so it checks the issue against logs, traces it back to the actual code, and debugs it. By the time I open my laptop there's a full report waiting. What broke, where, and what the fix looks like. I've only given it read access everywhere. Not because it hasn't been reliable, it has. I just still want to be the one reviewing and merging anything that touches the codebase. The automation does the investigating. I still make the call. Works better than I expected it to.

  Every AI writing tool has the same problem. It writes well. It just does not sound like you. Two years of pasting threads into Claude to fix that. Explain who the person is. Ask for shorter. Ask for warmer. Paste it back into Gmail. Then rewrite the three lines that still are not mine. Lindy put that entire loop inside Gmail. The reply is already written when you open the email, and you change it by saying what you want changed: → No blank page (it is written the way you write, before you get there) → No prompting (one line back to it and the whole draft moves) Two goes and it sounds like me. Not like something writing on my behalf. Every other tool turned me into an editor. This one gets closer every time I correct it. @getlindy

  Tern sync used to take ~20 seconds. Now it's roughly one 🫡 The trick was asking for less. Before, every check would fetch folder lists, old threads and a pile of mailbox data that hadn't changed at all. Now Tern just asks "what's new?" It grabs the latest mail, pulls in what's needed and gets out of the way. The heavy stuff (folder structure, backfilling old mail) happens quietly in the background. It also adapts to what you're doing: Looking at it? Checks every 5 seconds Inactive tab? Slows down to save battery New mail mid-check? Checks again straight away Gmail, Outlook and IMAP all sync in parallel, so multiple accounts still feel like one inbox. Small change on paper. But the inbox finally feels alive 👀

  STOP Using "Sign in with Google" for EVERYTHING!!! Your google account may be connected to far more than just gmail. cloud tools, business accounts, developer platforms, documents, and even services that make you money can all depend on the same login. That convenience can create a single point of failure. If your google account is ever suspended, compromised, or lost, recovering access to everything connected to it can become a much bigger problem than you expect. For important accounts, avoid relying on google as your only login method. use unique passwords, 2fa, recovery methods, and backup admin access whenever possible. Also check your google account connections and remove third-party apps you no longer recognize or use.
