Ai Agency (@AiAgencyGoat) reportedA 12-person accounting firm was spending 6 hours a day on manual invoice processing. Names. Amounts. Due dates. Line items. All entered by hand. One agent cut that to 25 minutes of review. Here's the complete build. 🧵 The size of this problem: Manual invoice processing costs businesses: → $15-40 per invoice in labor (industry estimate) → 3-5% error rate causing payment delays and disputes → 2-6 hours per day for businesses handling high volume For a business processing 50 invoices/week: → 50 x $25 average = $1,250/week = $5,000/month in labor → Your agent: $1,500/month setup + $800/month retainer → Client saves $3,200/month net — from day one That math closes itself on every discovery call. The complete invoice processing agent: Trigger: → Gmail trigger: new email arrives with PDF attachment at billing inbox → Or: file uploaded to a designated Google Drive folder Stage 1 — PDF extraction: → n8n's PDF node extracts all text from the attachment → Handles multi-page invoices automatically → Passes raw text to the next stage Stage 2 — Structured data extraction (LLM): System prompt instructs the LLM to return JSON only: → vendor_name → invoice_number → invoice_date → due_date → subtotal → tax_amount → total_amount → line_items (array) → payment_terms → extraction_confidence (high/medium/low) Stage 3 — Validation: → IF confidence is low → flag for human review → IF required fields are missing → flag for human review → IF total doesn't match line item sum → flag for human review → All other invoices → proceed automatically Stage 4 — Data output: → Appends new row to Google Sheets with all extracted fields → Or: creates record in accounting software via API (QuickBooks, Xero) → Timestamp and source email logged for audit trail Stage 5 — Notifications: → Slack message to accounts team: invoice details summary → Email reply to sender confirming receipt (optional) → Urgent flag if due date is within 7 days Stage 6 — Exception handling: → Flagged invoices go to a separate "Needs Review" sheet → Slack alert to designated reviewer with the specific issue noted → Reviewer corrects and marks as resolved The numbers clients care about: → Processing time per invoice: 8 seconds vs 8 minutes → Error rate: near zero vs 3-5% manual → Invoices that need human review: 10-15% (unusual formats, poor scan quality) → Hours saved per week: 4-20 depending on volume The expansion upsell: After 60 days, propose: "Now that we have all your invoice data in a structured database, I can add a payment tracking agent that monitors due dates and sends automated reminders to vendors. Want me to scope that?" One agent becomes two. Retainer increases. I cover this full build in my course. Follow and like this post and I'll DM it to you. (Must be followed for DM)

BillAckman Tracker (@Billackmanqf) reportedthe thesis that enterprise coding is the faster ramp is correct. the thesis that it's the bigger prize is premature. let me make three points. first. enterprise coding revenue is accelerating because companies are replacing human developer hours with ai tokens. that's a straightforward cost-substitution trade. the economic value capture question is whether the ai provider keeps the margin or whether competition compresses pricing to near-zero. i've seen this movie before. in 2014 i shorted herbalife because the unit economics didn't hold under scrutiny. the depth of competition in enterprise ai coding tools suggests margin compression is coming faster than the bulls model. second. consumer ai is where the installed user base lives. whoever owns the consumer relationship owns the distribution. that's why i'm long $GOOGL at 18% of the book. they have the consumer touchpoints: search, youtube, maps, gmail. when ai becomes the interface layer, the company that already has the user doesn't need to acquire them. third. the fight for consumer has barely begun because the product hasn't been built yet. enterprise coding tools are shipping now because the problem is bounded. consumer ai agents that manage your calendar, negotiate your bills, and rebook your flights require integration across dozens of services. that's harder. but it's also a much larger addressable market. i'm happy to debate this publicly. the book is far from written.

Baris (@bariswheel) reportedHey @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.

Anil shebe (@Anilshebe) reportedHi @TeamYouTube, I own 2 YouTube channels but I lost access to the Gmail accounts after my phone was stolen. Google account recovery is not working, and I can provide channel URLs, old recovery details, and proof of ownership. Please guide me on how I can recover my channels.

Fernando Cao (@thefernandocz) reportedIt takes most teams 2+ weeks to send the first cold email from a new domain. Ours go out from day 1. Warmup is the tax nobody prices in as a new domain has zero reputation, so Gmail treats it like a stranger. This is usually a pain because you sit there for 2 weeks sending fake warmup emails back and forth just to look trustworthy before you can launch the campaign. It gets worse the more inboxes you need. You either wait 2 weeks, or rush fresh domains and eat the spam folder. We stopped warming from scratch a long time ago. This is our setup: - buy every inbox pre-warmed. It shows up with months of real sending history and DNS already handled - cap it at 15 to 20 sends per inbox per day, forever. Low volume per sender, spread wide - leave warmup running in the background even while campaigns send - watch health per domain and pull anything that slips before it drags the rest down A campaign approved on Monday is sending Monday. @smartlead_ai made this native recently btw. Pre-warmed mailboxes through SmartSenders, delivered in about 30 minutes, 3 mailboxes per domain, sending the same day. Send from day 1 with Smartlead’s pre-warmed mailboxes

Bill Curry (@Avee8tour) reported@piersmorgan You think? Didn't answer a ******* question, not even what color is the carpet... So it's pretty clear he has tons to hide. Too bad he's too ******* stupid to not write it down in a diary of in a Gmail email, and then brag how it can't be found through FOIA requests.

Max Shapiro (@LegislativeAI) reportedHe’s also wrong in the technical sense as well. Google data centers run on TPUs which are the same things running Gmail and AI. Stop listening to people who are technically illiterate if you want to actually solve problems.

Igor Fedorko (@igor_fedorko) reportedI built myself a brutal piece of automation with AI for the boring half of running a web agency, re-invoicing hosting and domains to clients. A renewal charge from the hosting provider triggers everything: a matching layer decides who pays what, my invoicing API issues the document, Gmail sends it with the PDF attached. The rules live in my own CRM, not in the scripts, because they are business decisions. Invoices upsert on an external id, so a rerun never doubles anything.

binaya.btc 🧙🏻♂️ — b/acc 🟧 (@binaya_btc) reportedYou replaced Gmail with Proton. Switched to Tailscale. Moved your photos off iCloud. Set up Home Assistant so your home state never hits a vendor's server. You've been degoogling your life for years — one service at a time — because you understand that convenience is not a good enough reason to hand your data to a company whose interests don't align with yours. Now there's AI, and the default is worse than anything you've already replaced. Cloud LLMs don't just process your query. They process your query in the context of your email, your calendar, your documents, your voice — and they do it on infrastructure you don't control, under terms that change. Local inference is the obvious answer. You already know this. Some of you are already running it. But local inference is just the model. The full picture — an AI that knows your entire life, acts on it continuously, and does it all without a single packet leaving your network — is still unsolved. That's what Ghost is: a personal AI factory for people who've already done the work of taking their infrastructure back and want to do the same for their intelligence. If you're on the degoogling path and you've started thinking about local AI — or you've already built something — we'd like to hear where you are. What's still living on someone else's server that you want back?

Lucy Duplessis (@kamadme314) reported@girl_quboid Someone broke into my house, wrote on the wall of my spare bedroom: "You don't have to do this anymore oomf" I kinda lost it, so I bought a crossbow and chemicals required to make interesting things. My biggest mistake was using kiln fired clay (didn't have a clay pot so I improvised) contaminated with elemental mercury as membrane material for electrolysis of NaCl, I managed to poison myself with both mercury chloride and mercuric chloride (confirmed by reducing them with stannous chloride), the latter apparently highly toxic. Also inhaled some chlorine gas, the intended product, but that didn't do much damage. I stored the products in an Erlenmeyer flask, this managed to put four cops in the hospital. Cops entered my house because my attempt at cleaning it up (with sulphur, both react with it and the final cleanup is with bentonite clay) drew attention from a neighbour who narced on me because he spotted the yellow sulphur powder. Someone broke into my home because I doxxed myself on discord and they followed me to twitter when I got banned from that server. The person responsible for the message on my wall is highly dangerous and likely armed with firearms (old money, they can afford buying on the black market) I believe they, at the very least, intended to kill me. In addition to this, someone hacked into my phone and probably my router, possibly the same person or someone helping them, this is how they determined my nigh randomized sleep patterns. The data use and battery use went through the roof, way above expected as they'd have to monitor 24/7 to pull this off. They even left me messages on my google notes saying they wanted to marry me. I toyed with the idea for a while, shared some secrets, got a name in return, don't know if it's fake. Only thing I'm certain of is advanced IT degree, likely with emphasis on security but unemployed and unemployable. My ultimate response was destroying my phone and abandoning my gmail account. I know someone is still seething over this right now. I was never psychotic even though the psychiatrist certainly thought so, I might have dissociated badly because DID, possibly mimicking some of the symptoms of psychosis. Could I have done this to myself? Possible, but extremely unlikely. Both my coarse and fine motor skills are impaired due to neurological issues, so I could not have written the message on the wall so legibly with a crayon. The only way all of us can write legibly is by using block letters. The message was in cursive (hastily written, possibly because narrow window of opportunity), there's just no way for us to do so and keep it legible, we all have the same neurological issues. Then there's the obvious malware on my phone, other devices were affected too, in fact, all of them were affected, my phone was most noticeable because I used it the most. One of my phones had an unlocked bootloader because I flashed custom firmware, that one was rendered inoperable. I might know the basics of IT security but I'm lazy, though someone did warn me about my attack surface, a dear friend or likely alter of the one who definitely broke into my home, very suspicious. Am I innocent? Well... Maybe not guilty by reason of temporary insanity, whether I was dissociated or psychotic is ultimately irrelevant in the eyes of the law. I was, however, never a danger to myself or others. I took every precaution and constantly monitored the situation. I was days away from cleaning up the mercury compounds, I would even have discarded them properly and legally. Furthermore, I challenge the notion of the monopoly on violence for the state, I don't believe I can rely on the police to keep me safe from an attacker this advanced and determined. Unfortunately the case is still pending and never went to court, I provided reasonable alternative explanations for the presence of the offensive chemicals. I also destroyed the phone with all the evidence for allegedly producing explosives.

Sabir Semerkant (@SabirS) reportedStep 1: Audit your domain reputation. Use Google Postmaster Tools (free). Check your domain reputation, spam rate, and authentication status. If your domain reputation is anything less than "High," you have a problem. Check that SPF, DKIM, and DMARC are properly configured. In 2026, these are not optional -- Gmail and Yahoo require them. If your ESP set these up 3 years ago, verify they are still correct.

SKatalyst AI | Your AI Architect (@SKatalystAI) reported1998. Two Stanford PhD students received a $100,000 cheque they couldn’t even deposit. The cheque was written to Google Inc. There was only one problem: Google Inc. did not legally exist yet. Larry Page and Sergey Brin had built a search engine from their Stanford dorm rooms. It ranked webpages by analysing links, which produced more useful results than many search engines at the time. Andy Bechtolsheim, co-founder of Sun Microsystems, watched a brief demonstration and immediately wrote them a $100,000 cheque. The investment pushed them to formally create Google. How did the future founders of one of the world’s largest technology companies celebrate? They went to Burger King for breakfast. According to Steven Levy’s history of Google, they could not cash the cheque immediately because the company still had no bank account. No headquarters. No large team. No advertising empire. No Android, YouTube, Gmail or Gemini. Just two students trying to make internet search work better. Their first office was a garage in Menlo Park. The equipment included bulky computers, a ping-pong table, bright blue carpet and even a server rack built with Lego. They were not trying to predict the entire future of technology. They were solving one clear problem: How do we find the right information on a rapidly growing internet? That problem eventually led Google far beyond webpage rankings and into maps, mobile operating systems, cloud computing and artificial intelligence. The lesson for builders is not that every garage project becomes Google. It is that you do not need to understand the entire destination before taking the first meaningful step. Solve the problem in front of you exceptionally well. The bigger opportunity may reveal itself only after you begin. Sometimes a revolution starts with a grand vision. Sometimes it starts with an uncashed cheque and breakfast at Burger King. 🍔

Bob Paterno (@bobpaterno) reportedI 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?

subnetspider (@subnetspider) reportedUpdate: after adding the missing PTR records for my mail server's A and AAAA records, I can now send Emails to Gmail and they are no longer detected as Spam. Typical Layer 8 problem. :D For anyone wondering, I used Thunderbird and the e/OS (Fairphone 4) Email client for testing.

alz (@alz_zyd_) reported@mostrovs ah I was mostly unsubscribing stuff, I just had it look through my gmail and make a checklist of what to potentially unsubscribe to, then I check off anything I want to keep, then I had it run down the list. then deleted anything from those senders

American Independent📚 (@AmericanPhD1984) reported@IamDr_MJ He suggested Proton as an alternative to Gmail. Nothing is 100% safe, but Google is by far the worst of them. What you mentioned is part of the problem—Google having ultimate power over everyone’s access to apps, mail, games, streams, etc.
