  An imported automation will not just run, and that is not a broken template. Every one of them needs your own accounts connected before it does anything. Your Gmail, your Notion, your Drive. The workflow is the wiring. It is not the electricity. Most people import one, hit the first credential error, decide the tool is broken, and never open it again. That error is the normal first step. It is the workflow telling you exactly which account it wants.

  @TutaPrivacy @PeteMundo, Happy Tuesday. Based on your gmail rant yesterday I wonder if it might have been a google AI glitch vs a hacker.

  My Gmail accounts have been compromised, and the recovery process is currently underway. Please be careful and do not trust or respond to any emails, messages, videos, posts, links, or other content that may be sent, uploaded, or shared through my accounts including YouTubes, Facebook's and other SMs during this period. Any such content is not under my control and should not be considered authorized or endorsed by me. I will issue an update as soon as I regain full control of my accounts.

  "I'm too late to ecom" was a weak excuse in 2019 and it's embarrassing in 2026. People have been saying the market is saturated for as long as the market has existed. Meanwhile brands launch every month and get to real money inside a year, selling things that already have 40 competitors. Being early was never the advantage anyone thinks it was. "Early" means you're paying to teach a market what your product is, with nobody to copy and no proof that people want it. "Late" means the demand is there, the playbook is public, and your job is to be better at execution than people who got comfortable. Of course, there are cases where you want to be first, but unless you actually know what you're doing... Choose the 2nd one. When I sold a retro console, it wasn't a new idea. Other people were already selling it, and it worked anyway, because most competitors are worse than they look from the outside. Their shipping is slow, their product page oversells, and their support is a Gmail somebody checks on Sundays. + People really liked it, so much so it got the attention of Nintendo and they emailed me to shut it down. Point is, you don't need a category nobody has touched. You need a product people already buy and a business that doesn't fall apart the moment volume shows up. The guys still waiting for the next untapped thing will say the same sentence in 2029. Lmao.

  okay, so i was diving into the rollouts generated by qwen3.5 4B, here are some findings (given model has access to only api_search and api_fetch tool at any given point of time) > model is looking to gather information it needs to address query but ends up burning tokens and exhausts upper cap of 50 turns in getting a query that actually returns functions that can help model clear ambiguity. > in the partially succeeded rollout (score this way was 17), where the model did discover the correct tool, it would eventually fail to solve that particular task, eg. - (sales subset) example id 504: Qwen found and used the correct Salesforce update endpoint. It updated the wrong Marcus Wong. - (sales subset) example id 503: Qwen found and used the CampaignMember endpoint. It enrolled prohibited people because it skipped the policy. - (sales subset) example id 1204: even knowing the Facebook photo endpoint does not tell it which image is eligible; it must retrieve Gmail policy + Sheet rows first. so my takeaway is that entire problem breaks down to two subproblems: 1. tool discovery (has to be token efficient) 2. the core policy i.e. Prompt > infer what information is missing > search for a capability to retrieve it (basically 1st subproblem) > call that capability > interpret returned observation > identify what remains uncertain > retrieve more evidence > choose target(s) > execute minimal writes > verify end state > finish the moment we break the problem, it is clear that it is a variant of computer use problem. the model needs to learn the ReACT loop. that's it. that's the optimization objective.

  @CMDRVALTHOR I got rid of my Gmail account and they DELETED more than half of my phone numbers in my I phone. go back to the good ole fashioned way and write down the numbers you want. For me, I don't care. I got rid of most of my past in the last 8 years so it was no big deal. google=evil

  Almanac. YC S26. Own computer. Text it work; it texts when it's done. Slack and iMessage. A wiki it reads before it acts. Pauses at login, payment, or a decision it should not make alone. 7-day trial on all plans. Opened HN stamp: 19 hours ago on September 1, 55 points, 47 comments. Product Hunt: launched this week, 211 followers, 3.0 from 1 review. No rank on that page. No dollars on the homepage I opened. I did not connect Gmail. Not Runway's agent. Would you text a computer work, or keep a tab open to watch it?

  @lingxi @bot To be more specific, using the Gmail connector bot has huge trouble sending multiple screenshots from app he just made to my own Gmail. I thing he could make an app for doing this 10 times in the time it took him to use Gmail to do it (unsuccessfuly).

  @pitdesi Summer of 2004 I built an app that used gmail attachments as cloud file storage, I called it Goggles. I showed it to a few classmates who worked at Google, they told me to shut it down immediately b/c I'll get sued. Keep wondering what've happened if I didn't listen.

  The full math. What he replaced and what he saved: 1.Dropbox ($12/month) → Google Drive (15 GB) + OneDrive (5 GB): $144/year saved 2.Zoom ($13/month) → Google Meet (60-min calls, 100 participants): $156/year saved 3.Notion ($10/month) → Google Keep + Google Docs + OneNote: $120/year saved 4.Todoist ($5/month) → Microsoft To Do: $60/year saved 5.Slack ($8/month) → Microsoft Teams free tier: $96/year saved 6.Grammarly ($12/month) → Microsoft Editor + Gemini/Copilot for rewrites: $144/year saved 7.Adobe Acrobat ($15/month) → Google Drive PDF viewer + Edge PDF tools + Word Online conversion: $180/year saved 8.Trello ($10/month) → Microsoft Planner: $120/year saved 9.ChatGPT Plus ($20/month) → Google Gemini + Microsoft Copilot (free tiers): $240/year saved Total monthly cost before: $137 Total monthly cost after: $0 Annual savings: $1,644 Total setup time: one weekend Saturday for Google migrations, Sunday for Microsoft configurations. Accounts created: 0 (he already had both) Apps downloaded: 3 (Microsoft To Do, Teams, OneNote all free) Browser extensions installed: 1 (Microsoft Editor free) Every replacement runs on accounts he created years ago. The tools were sitting behind the same login he uses for Gmail and Outlook unused, unconfigured, and paying rent to 9 other companies that built the same features on top of what Google and Microsoft were already giving away.

  @joeygems @Stron__ @elenadesaa1999 Your data is cheaper than the infrastructure behind your Gmail account. They can read your emails because it’s their platform; you can set up your own SMTP server or even in fact, you can pay (once again, it’s not free) for an email account with end-to-end encryption.

  what I did to troubleshoot the fact that there is no @Mailchimp connector yet and I didn’t wanna set up an API or an MCP I just connected it to the associated Gmail and I gave it the instruction that throughout the month. I’m gonna send photos information and recap on events we have with the title “month, Year MailChimp newsletter” so at the end of the month it can review all the stuff I’ve sent it to put together in this email and then it can also review the previous months email to cross-reference and check for other items that are relevant to add to the email… so I can just dump all the content in my Gmail inbox and it can work and its own computer and MailChimp after I login. 🎉
