    @mil000 The people in this comments section saying "just vibecode gmail" have clearly NEVER tried to set up a working mail server in their lives, let alone one that can deliver to gmail and not get sent to spam like I have (it was HELL but it was worth it) There's also zero need to vibe code it when there's so many good self hostable email things you can use.

    Stop Storing Your Medical School Files on Your Phone: If you're a medical student having problems with where to store your lecture slides because your phone storage keeps getting full... If you're always struggling to find files on your phone... If you've ever changed your phone and lost access to your lecture slides... Then I want to let you know that this isn't really a phone problem. It's simply because you're using the wrong storage system. As a medical student, you're not supposed to be storing your important academic files permanently on your phone. Yes. Have you heard of something called cloud storage? Cloud storage simply means storing your important files on secure servers online instead of inside your phone. Think about it. Your phone has limited storage. Depending on the model you're using, it may have 64 GB, 128 GB or 256 GB of storage. But over several years of medical school, you'll accumulate thousands of lecture slides, hundreds of PDFs, anatomy atlases, textbooks, videos, practical manuals, charts, flashcards and past questions. Eventually, your phone becomes crowded. The smarter approach is to let your phone become a temporary device—not your permanent library. For example... Google gives every Google account 15 GB of free cloud storage (shared across Google Drive, Gmail and Google Photos). If you're using an Android phone, chances are you already have a Google account. That means you already have free cloud storage waiting for you. If you have a Microsoft account, OneDrive gives you 5 GB of free cloud storage. If you use an iPhone, iCloud gives you 5 GB of free storage. There are also services like Dropbox and MEGA that offer free cloud storage as well. These services exist for a reason. Use them. If you have textbooks, don't store them permanently in your phone's internal storage. Instead... Open Google Drive. Create one proper Google account dedicated to medical school. Inside that account, create folders. For example: - Anatomy - Physiology - Biochemistry - Histology - Embryology - Pharmacology - Pathology - Microbiology - Surgery - Medicine Now open your Anatomy folder. Inside it, create another folder called Gross Anatomy. Inside Gross Anatomy, create folders like: - Lecture Slides - Textbooks - Past Questions - Clinical Correlations - Charts - Practical Manuals Now begin uploading. Upload. Upload. Upload. Stick to one Google Drive account throughout your entire medical school. You'll be surprised. Five or six years later, you'll look back and realize you've built an entire medical library. Everything you've ever studied... Every lecture slide... Every textbook... Every practical manual... Every chart... Every past question... Waiting for you in one organized place. Another thing. Learn to use Google Photos. All those anatomy diagrams... Charts... Clinical pictures... Embryology illustrations... Practical photographs... Store them inside Google Photos instead of leaving them on your phone. As long as you know your email and password, you can access them from anywhere in the world. Your phone. Another phone. A tablet. A laptop. Even a computer in a cyber café. If your phone gets stolen today... Nothing important is lost. Because your library isn't inside your phone. It's online. There are paid cloud services that provide even larger storage capacities, but honestly, the free options are enough for most students starting out. Now here's a habit I think every student should build. Whenever you download something important... Don't leave it sitting on your phone. Instead: Download it. Upload it to your cloud storage. Delete it from your phone. Download. Upload. Delete. Repeat. Your phone remains light. Your files remain safe. Your library keeps growing.

    @sattyyouneed I attribute everything I do to having AI involvement these days. It's for other people's comfort. In the past, we never started saying "Gmail fixed this email so I don't suck, or Word made this resume not look "ignant"". I think in time this ridiculous obsession will die down simply from people doing it themselves. Because the minute you start, you know that to make something good, it's not just the AI, not in anything AI can do. Do something with AI you're an expert at and do something with AI you have no skill at. You'll understand instantly and start working harder on the thing you're not good at. Somebody on your team was always smarter than you, now you and everybody else knows it. That's hurting people's egos, but they'll get over it. What can you do with this new team of intelligences available to you: that's the measure. And some people still not measure up. And many will suddenly surprise us.

    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?

    @sama @sama @OpenAI I’m a ChatGPT Pro user and have been unable to connect Gmail or Google Drive for two days. On iPad/web, “Continue to Gmail” remains stuck on a loading spinner before the Google OAuth page even opens. Google shows an existing OpenAI authorization, while ChatGPT’s backend still reports both plugins as “not installed.” This appears to be a state-synchronization or OAuth redirect failure—not a user-permission issue. The UI shows conflicting states without an error message or diagnostic code. Could your team please examine the iPad OAuth callback and plugin-installation state synchronization? AI may be in 2026, but this integration currently feels like the web in 1999.

    First, understand the attack. Attackers get into your email three ways: → Credential stuffing (your old password from a 2019 breach) → Phishing (fake Gmail login page in an ad) → Session hijack (infostealer malware pulling cookies off your device) They don't guess. Your passwords are already in a database somewhere.

    Hey @cursor_ai — dug into the new Google Workspace plugins as a fellow builder. Personal Gmail connect fails at Google OAuth with Error 400: invalid_request (“doesn’t comply with Google’s OAuth 2.0 policy…”). Error details show: redirect_uri=cursor://anysphere.cursor-mcp/oauth/callback flowName=GeneralOAuthFlow Reads like Google is rejecting the Cursor custom-scheme callback, not a user-side config issue. Expected for personal accounts right now, or known bug? Can share repro if useful.

    Existing subscription tools take 30-60% of what they save you and want your bank login. Built Quench to skip both. It watches your Gmail for SaaS renewals, flags them before they hit, and negotiates cancellations for you. Flat fee. Every dollar saved is yours. Live soon.

    Most inboxes aren't slow. They just stop when the human does. Penumbra runs 24/7 across Gmail, Outlook and Slack — drafts replies in your voice, flags the urgent, queues everything for one-tap approval. Live soon, so no thread ever outlasts the person behind it.

    @mechanakamoto The problem was never the hardware wallet. They didn't hack the wallet, they hacked the seed. If you have your password as "password" and they hack your gmail, do you complaint with google?

    Okay, I need some thoughts on this weird situation with my ex-therapist. I will openly admit that I enjoy a good smackdown when someone needs it but will only whip that part of my personality out in certain cases and with certain people. It's there and trying to rear its ugly head right now. What I would like to do is call her to express in very uncouth words what I think about her and her therapy style and report her to ... I don't even know who. I just don't know if it's fitting, if maybe I'm defensive because of that insane bill by my ex-therapist's office and her very evident apathy toward my journey. Here's what happened this afternoon. Tell me your thoughts, opinions, feelings on this because I'm not familiar with how therapy works and how to deal with someone like this in a professional way rather than scorched Earth. I received an e-mail this afternoon from my ex-therapist. I thought she might be messaging me to ask why I cancelled the rest of her scheduled sessions. When I opened the e-mail, I noticed it was from her personal gmail account, not the clinic's messaging service. She mentioned she noticed I had cancelled and wondered if I might want at least one more session to "wrap things up." Um .. ***** .. wrap up WHAT? My filling out forms that had questions YOU were supposed to ask me directly but that help you avoid doing your job? Me sitting in front of a camera talking to myself while you yawn, talk to your 3 year old son off-camera, and at one point, roll your eyes because you're bored? Me waiting for some kind of input while you keep asking me to repeat things you missed because you were occupied with something else on your desk -- not once or twice but multiple times? I replied that my insurance had mislead me on my coverage (not true but I don't want to deal with an attitude or confrontation), so I can't afford more sessions. Apologized and thanked her for asking. She messages back to ask if I am planning on writing the autobiography I mentioned. I started to feel stupid. I started to feel like my bitterness had blinded me and she wasn't doing all of those things, that she really was paying attention and was trying to offer me a little help since she can't give me any more full sessions. I shed a few tears, not gonna lie. It felt good to know she really did care and she really did want to help me get through my family issues. I messaged back, "I still need some help getting over this writing slump for the books I'm currently working on, so I don't know when I'll get a chance to even start planning out an autobiography. Do you think I should set the other stuff aside because maybe writing about all of this would help ease the chaos in my head?" She replied, "Hi, Lily! I do understand about the insurance. I'm sorry about the mix up. I hope they can sort something out for you. Our phones are always on if you need to talk and if you're able to come back! The reason I asked about the autobiography is because I will admit I was looking forward to hearing more about your family dynamics and what you survived. I've been in therapy for 15 years and your story is one of the most startling I've heard. You know I do enjoy self-help books and I think your story could benefit others. Would it be possible for you to send me your manuscript when you do write it? I of course would never tell anyone about it or what you write. I would keep it confidential. Would this be something you might be interested in pursuing?" I stared for a minute not sure what all of that meant. Like, does she want to beta read my autobiography? Is she just so damned nosy, she wants me back as a patient to listen like my life is gossip? WTF is she expecting? I'm gathering at this point that she's online, so I quickly messaged her for clarification. "Are you asking to be my beta reader or just to read the parts I now won't be able to tell you in therapy?" She immediately replied, "I don't think I would be a beta reader because that's a job correct? I don't expect to be paid. As you mentioned I'm interested in hearing more outside of therapy. I'm drawn to your story. I can accept it as a PDF or Discord if you have that. Does this sound good?" And this is where I have left it. No response because WTF am I supposed to say? I can't even figure out what's going on right now. What ********?! Should I be pissed? Should I be flattered? Should I be grateful that a "professional" would read my book and possibly give me free input? (Then again, that free input is from someone as ****** as her.) Should I report her? I don't know what's even happening.
