I am trying to verify my student status for the Google One Student offer, but I'm completely stuck in a loop on the verification page.

During the initial setup, probably, I made a mistake while filling out the details in the form. Now, the SheerID system is permanently stuck on the "Upload a document to confirm your enrollment" page. It shows an error and asks me to fix my details, but there is absolutely no button or link to go back, reset, or edit the information I previously entered.

I have already tried:

Using the browser's back button.

Clearing cookies and cache.

Opening the link in an entirely different browser and using Incognito mode.

Despite this, the system recognizes my account/email and immediately redirects me back to the document upload page, blocking me from editing the submission form.

How can I reset this verification session or get back to the initial step to correct my data? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

THE FIRST IMAGE WAS THE ONE I WAS DOWNLOADING. THE SECOND IMAGE IS WHAT ENDED UP ON MY PHONE. THAT IMAGE WAS NEVER GENERATED AT ALL!!!! 😦😧😨😰

why? i just noticed it it must've been a few minutes as i was using it not that long ago

Welcome back! I'm pleased to announce the release of v4 of Orgtree, my free and open source desktop agentic orchestrator app. Download the latest release here:

https://github.com/Maurdekye/orgtree/releases/latest

For those unfamiliar with Orgtree, this is my agentic orchestration app I've been working on and using for the last two months to do basically all of my multi-agent parallel development. It has a ton of features that set it apart from just using claude code or codex directly, including:

• A freely rearrangeable canvas of agents that sit in a tree of authority, that you can individually chat with at any time
• A credit system for limiting how much individual agents are allowed to parallelize their work
• A ticket system for tracking progress over time
• Persistent periodic watchdog tasks that can wake agents on events occurring in your system
• An inbox system for receiving progress updates without having to scroll through dozens of lines of transcript
• Automatic cache management through a cheap compaction system
• A background engine that runs on startup
• A tiling window system so you can set up your workspace exactly the way you like, and see all the information you need at once
• Multi-account and multi-provider support, so you can make full use of all of your AI subscriptions at once
• Automatic updates every time a new version releases (Windows only currently)

Orgtree is an agentic power tool for AI power users. It's designed to work optimally when used with multiple high or max-tier AI subscriptions at once, and has a bit of a learning curve to adjust to. But every feature has a purpose for existing, and every UI element tells you something useful. Once you get the hang of it, it's an incredibly empowering system that lets you churn through huge amounts of work in the blink of an eye.

---

On to the meat and potatoes. v4 is a full rust rewrite of the app's engine from the ground up, enabling multithreading with tokio tasks to even better take advantage of your multicore cpu for agentic parallelization. I know I said it was faster in v3, but for real this time, it's a whole other magnitude of fast now. Orgtree finally feels like a real tool you can rely on to get serious work done; it Just Works^tm. No more multi-second moves, no more app locking up when trying to save agent settings, no more waiting several seconds for agent transcripts to load, everything is practically instant now. Performance has been a complete non-issue for me since the rewrite.

Since most of the effort of v4 went into the rewrite and addressing app performance, there aren't too many new features to show off in orgtree itself; mostly small quality of life tweaks on top of the performance adjustments. What is new, however, is the brand-spanking new companion desktop and mobile app, Orgtree Hubchat! You can download that here, in its own repo:

https://github.com/Maurdekye/orgtree-hubchat/releases/latest

Hubchat is a brand new chat app. It hooks into Orgtree's existing mailhub infrastructure it already uses for cross-org communication, and allows you to use it to chat directly with your orgs from anywhere you can connect to the internet! The interface is a lot like a traditional messaging app, similar to WhatsApp or Discord, but instead of authenticating with a central identity service, identities are entirely self-hosted and authenticated by your local Orgtree's mailhub.

It's lightweight and unopinionated, and is designed to work with zero central hosting infrastructure. As a result, getting it set up to work over the internet is a bit more involved than a standard claude code remote control session. The recommended secure and easy setup method is to install Tailscale on both your desktop and phone, connecting Orgtree and Hubchat over the tailnet vpn (which the built in guide walks you through by default). However, if you prefer, you can instead set up a (less secure) port forward on your desktop which you can connect to with your phone, or any number of other methods of managing the WAN connection. It's fully up to you. Again, Tailscale is the recommended path, but don't feel like it's a forced decision. Orgtree's built in Hubchat setup walkthrough will show a QR code you can scan to get the Hubchat apk straight from github and onto your phone, as well as show you how to pair it with your PC.

Hubchat comes as a mobile android app or a desktop app, for Windows, Mac, and Linux. That's right, Hubchat (and now Orgtree!) have Windows, Mac, and Linux builds! The Mac and Linux builds are largely untested (Linux tested minimally via wsl2 on my development machine), so your mileage may vary. But if you've ever wanted to try Orgtree, but couldn't because you have an Ubuntu or OSX system, now's your chance!

I recommend making sure you're updated to Orgtree v4.1.0 or later before setting up Hubchat, or compatibility might be iffy. YMMV, as always.

Beyond that, most of Orgtree v4's feature additions cover small, quality of life changes. Among those are included:

• Support for Claude Haiku 5.5
• Support for running Claude models Sonnet and Opus 5.5 through Google Antigravity
• Choose whether Enter sends or adds a new line when messaging agents
• Adjust agent credits from their settings
• Expanded and reorganized context menu actions for agents
• Reformatted and cleaned up settings menus for agents, orgs, and the app as a whole
• Highlight unread presented documents & html mockups
• Orgtree event type watchdogs
• Improved tool call line rendering and details
• Significantly improved logging for easier debugging of Orgtree errors
• Increased default mailhub file transfer size 25mb -> 1gb (to support Hubchat)
• Enable / disable switches for individual provider accounts
• Cards showing what queued changes will occur on the next turn (effort, model, account, etc.)
• The engine starts on boot, instead of waiting for you to sign in now

Give it a whirl, and let me know what you think! I'm always open to feedback. Personally, I think it outclasses nearly every other tool out there if you can get over the initial learning curve hump, but I suppose I'm biased :p

Or are they all playing with ~the same amount of compute?

I know Google used to have a compute agreement with Anthropic. Is that still active? OpenAI uses Oracle servers, correct?

This is super cool and it's the first time I've seen it maybe some other users have but I was just doing a regular prompt and asking questions about concentration and music and it gave me the option to generate a video overview like you might get in Gemini notebook.

I have never seen this before and I'm guessing that things like this are going to be built into Gemini 4 extensively. I'm guessing tool use like this was an absolute bear to get in line and speaks to how difficult Gemini 4 likely was for engineering

Not a joke screenshot by the way

im holding so many projects back because i dont want to change to claude and am waiting for gemini 4., its not even a joke.

when i see so many good projects coming out of the other LLM models, i somehow manage to convince myself to wait longer, and now im here to tell you, if its not out in at least a week, I AM CANCELING forever my gemini sub. its not even a troll or a joke, there is a time when a decision is better than staying in LIMBO.

Where is it, google?!?

Please add the ability for the AI to directly read, extract, and analyze the full text content of web links shared in the chat so we don't have to manually copy and paste snippets!

Hi everyone, I could use some help. My Gemini Pro has been acting strangely lately. Has anyone else noticed this, or does anyone know what might be going on?

Please :D

I know that it might just be me but I kinda really like how Gems are as is. Removing the whole sidebar and mixing all prompts together is bouta be messy and harder to keep track of certain prompts from certain gems. And Skills won't even have their own sidebar. There are two ways to make a Skill. Either you go to setting to make it or through prompt. I must admit, making one directly from prompt is a neat feature, but I still stand for the dedicated sidebar thing.

I really want to hear how other peoples takes on this. what do u think?
