  @cartierfamilyZ Why are people so pressed about data centers all of a sudden? All of your online information from X account, to gmail, any online storage, website etc is stored in a data center. We've had data centers for decades, all of a sudden they're an issue? Take a deep breath, and tune out the idiotic noise.

  @Harshsharma836 The issue isn't really about Gmail specifically being too broad, it's the leading % in the LIKE pattern. Even a rare domain would still force the same full scan since the wildcard sits at the start

  One of my top media buyers told me my plan was wrong on Friday. He had the numbers. I was the one who had to change. I'd asked how he wanted to split brand and non-brand across Shopping and Performance Max on a client account. I already had a view. Shopping on brand, PMax on prospecting. Clean. Conventional. What I would have built myself. He came back with something different. Search and Shopping carry brand and non-brand. Demand Gen takes prospecting because Demand Gen lets you choose your placements and PMax doesn't. Then he showed me why. When we pushed PMax harder earlier in the month, the campaign quietly reallocated almost all of its spend into Gmail and the return collapsed. Pull the budget back down and it went straight back to Search. He'd also caught something I hadn't weighted. The branded PMax campaign in the same account is performing fine. So rather than shutting it off, he wanted to step it down gradually and watch whether Shopping absorbs the volume. That's a better plan than mine. Not even close. Here's the part I keep thinking about. He didn't ask permission to disagree. He'd already run the analysis, already built the counter-position, and sent it in a Slack message on a Friday afternoon. That doesn't happen by accident, and it isn't a personality trait. It happens when disagreeing has never cost anyone anything. The version of this that goes wrong is quiet. Someone sees the mix shift, assumes the founder already knows, and executes the worse plan anyway. Nobody argues. The account just underperforms for a quarter and nobody can point to why. I'd rather be corrected on a Friday than be right in a room where nobody talks. This is why hiring the right people is everything.

  @MSFT365Status I LOST AN ENTIRE DAY! I had to use my Gmail account with a note at the bottom of each email apologizing for using a Gmail email account instead of my business email account because Microsoft has issues! That was early this morning and you're still down! Come on Microsoft get your act together! I'm moving my email to another email service if this isn't fixed by 9am PDT..! Enough-is-Enough!

  SYNTHLEX (@SYNTHLEX_) reported 34 minutes ago

  xAI just handed Grok Bots the right to read, write, and act inside your Microsoft accounts. The timeline is fighting about whether that is safe. The real story is a single permission scope that almost nobody clicked through to read. Grok's Outlook connector asks for two things at sign-in: Mail.ReadWrite and Mail.Send. Full send authority from the first Accept. Grok's Gmail connector, by comparison, starts read-only and only earns send access when you turn it on. Read that again. The Microsoft account got the more permissive default. That is not a footnote. That is the exact line where an assistant becomes an employee. Now look at the screenshot everyone scrolled past. A left sidebar of named workers. Schedule Manager. Inbox digest. Bug triage. Expense digest. Launch post. That is not a chat window. That is a staff directory. First. The unit of AI work stopped being the prompt. You are not typing questions into a box, you are assigning roles to a roster. The interface is an org chart wearing the skin of a messaging app. Second. The permission is the product. For two years the bottleneck was never capability, it was trust. A model that drafts a flawless email but cannot send it is a brilliant intern who still needs you to press the button. Mail.Send deletes the button. The value was never in the draft. It was always in the authority to act without you standing there. Third. Each bot runs on its own cloud computer that keeps working after you log off. Persistence changes the verb. A tool waits for you. An employee works while you sleep. The 9:41 AM digest in that screenshot is a report on labor done in the hours the user was gone. Fourth. OneDrive and SharePoint access is gated to Business and Enterprise tiers, and setup routes through an Azure admin consent. xAI is not selling you a chatbot. It is selling your IT department a workforce. The Copilot war will not be won on model quality. It will be won at the admin approval screen. Fifth. The skill this rewards is not prompting. It is delegation. Deciding which bot gets Mail.Send and which stays read-only. Knowing what "make it 45 min instead" means when a human types it to a manager instead of a machine. The person in that screenshot is not a user. He is running a standup. The model can already do the work. The only decision left is what you sign it the authority to do without asking you first. That was never a prompting problem. It is a management one.

  It's crazy how everyone is praising Grok Bot, but let me be the annoying person who tells you why it still kinda sucks. 1. The actual capabilities of agents are not novel. Most of the demos I've seen can already be done with Hermes and similar setups, often with smarter models and more control. The difference is that Grok Bot gives you everything out of the box ,without setup and wiring things together. 2. The agent itself is still pretty weak. The UX makes you want to delegate ambitious tasks to it, but the underlying model/agent doesn't always live up to that promise. It takes dumb paths, burns through context/tokens surprisingly fast, and needs more babysitting than the "AI employee" framing suggests. Also, there's no native X search which is especially funny for a product coming from (you have x_search on @grok but not on @bot which needs to use x connection and burn credits). 3. The security model deserves way more attention. All your Bots share the same computer, including files, cookies, browser sessions, and logins. So once you start logging into Gmail, GitHub, Stripe, internal dashboards, etc., a prompt injection or compromised webpage suddenly has a much bigger blast radius. Well, these were the main issues I had with grok bot (apart from smaller issues like absence of read aloud) and why I stick with hermes. But on the other hand, the product is genuinely good, and this is why.

  @Zoom Oh! I remember the other problem. The "send a code" button is super slow. Yes, I checked my spam folder. Took several minutes to come through. To a gmail domain. It also produces a captcha error every time you click the button even after you've already clicked the captcha.

  @jjacky Yes, very easy. Use Google cloud, add Gmail api, add Gmail mcp or equivalent, may require you to add the secret json somewhere, oauth and login, but now ai has your inbox. If you want to give the agent its own inbox, just do the same thing

  @Jaywash_1NFT @Cointelegraph @Yubico Yubikey is a security key that's acts as MFA for accounts such as Gmail, social media accounts, etc, it can't be used with Hardware wallets, unless there is an account login where you sign up with email or phone number and password. Most hardware wallets are not compatible with security keys because they simple don't require it as the hardware wallet acts as the authenticatior in that situation.

  @GergelyOrosz Really? When tech companies have an outage they sort of shrug and the economy goes on. AWS out - “we’re sorry” Robinhood down - “we made mistakes” Microsoft/Gmail down - “we’re working on it” Bank can’t dispense money? Bank runs, economic fall out, congressional hearings.

  I once posted the SAME video on 2 freshly created 0-sub channels. Channel 1: 87 impressions Channel 2: 52,330 impressions Only variable: the infrastructure behind it. Here’s what that tells us about YouTube’s algorithm: Your channel carries a score that no one will EVER show you. Think of it like credit at a bank, nobody cares if you pull up in a nice suit and a Richard Mille. They pull your history and decide how much they're willing to lend you. YouTube does the same. A trusted account gets its video in front of a REAL test audience, and if it performs YouTube scales distribution hard. If the account is not trusted, it won’t get shown to anyone, meaning nobody clicks. And when nobody clicks, the algorithm just confirms what it already suspected and moves on. Now here’s what actually feeds that score: → IP reputation and history → Fingerprint consistency across sessions → How the account behaved in week one → Upload velocity → Retention and CTR over time → Whether your engagement looks bought → How long you've stayed in one niche It’s reasonable that people obsess over the bottom half… those are the numbers YouTube Studio shows them. The top half are as important though, yet they’re invisible to the untrained eye So here’s how to spot if your infrastructure sucks: Open your channel's setup and look for anything shared. → Same IP as another channel? → Same browser profile? → Same recovery email? → Same phone number? → Same AdSense? Any of those and the channel isn't isolated. People overcomplicate this but it's simple. YouTube is trying to figure out one thing: "Is this a real separate person, or 1 guy spinning a bunch of accounts?" If your setup looks like one guy wearing 10 masks, you're cooked. A proper setup looks like this: Channel 1 → Profile 1 → IP 1 Channel 2 → Profile 2 → IP 2 Channel 3 → Profile 3 → IP 3 Each channel on its own dedicated residential IP. Not a proxy or a cheap VPN you can find anywhere. That's the whole reason I built @tubeproxies. Every IP is sourced through residential Internet Service Provider networks for one use case only: Faceless YouTube channels. Because nothing is as demanding as YouTube when it comes to IP quality. Then each channel must get its own: → phone number → recovery email → browser fingerprint → login history → normal usage pattern Next you must act normal across all of them: Don't log into Channel 1 from Profile 2 because you were lazy. Don't open your personal Gmail in the same profile. Don't check an old banned channel from the clean browser. Don't use the same SMS number across the portfolio and call it separated. This is how people poison clean channels without realizing it. They buy a good IP, then attach it to a browser that already has ***** history. They make a new Gmail, then add the same recovery email they used on 6 other channels. They get a new phone number, then log in from the same Chrome they used for a terminated account. Then they: → Post for 30 days → Get 0 impressions → Blame content/algo Could be the content. Could even be the algo. But if the infra is messy, YouTube never gave the channel a real test anyway. And if any part of your channel touches another another one such as an old account, a banned account, your personal account, or a reused setup… You must fix it before you upload again. Don't wait until the channel is doing 300k views a day to think about this. That's the worst time to start swapping IPs, emails, phones, browsers and AdSense. Sudden changes look like inauthentic account behavior. Build it clean from day one, then act normal. Browse before uploading. Warm the account up. Don't upload 3 videos in 24h on a fresh channel. Don't log in from Denmark at 9am and Texas at 9:20. Don't make the channel look like a bot farm and then wonder why YouTube treats it like one. The channel with 87 impressions was from a Nigerian IP. The one with 52.3k was a US one.

  @nicdunz It's cool. You can just utilise the bug in their billing to get access to other accounts that they won't fix despite it being on the dev forums. I used this on a Gmail account to "breach" my own business account for a proof of concept to get them to fix it. Didn't need to provide consent or anything. Just sitting there draining my own business account via a gmail.
