'Folks, I’m excited to tell you that the first flight from Operation Fly Formula is loaded up with more than 70,000 pounds of infant formula and about to land in Indiana,' the president wrote on Twitter just before the plane touched down.
It's one of several measures the president unveiled to mitigate the increasingly dire baby formula shortage that's plaguing Americans nationwide - which has already led to multiple reports of hospitalized children. The shipment from the US military's Ramstein Air Base in Germany is the first in Biden's Operation Fly Formula program, aimed at ramping up international imports of baby formula to raise US supply. More than 70,000 pounds of baby formula arrived in the United States on Sunday via military aircraft, President Joe Biden announced, as his top economics adviser pledged stores could see replenished supplies 'as early as this week.'

You don’t need a Mac client to make it smarter, because Gmail’s smart enough already.
Otherwise, Mailplane provides the same unadulterated Gmail experience you get from a browser, just as the good lord intended. I’m now conditioned like a Pavlovian dog to find a new personal email with each "tink," a work email with each "purr," and a hot tip from a Verge reader with each "ping." Among several superfluous features I can’t be bothered to use is a handy Do Not Disturb option visible from the top menu bar that mutes all notifications. I can also assign different audible notifications to each inbox.
It sounds minor, but having tabs that I can hotkey between for all of my personal and professional inboxes and calendars is critical to my workflow. These days that means three personal and two work accounts, each given a dedicated tab in the app. With Mailplane, I launch the app and watch it automatically log me in to an unlimited number of Google accounts. True, I could manage these through the Chrome browser, but I find Chrome to be slower and more resource-intensive than Safari, and the account management is still too cumbersome.
As a Gmail user since 2004, I’ve amassed a fair number of identities. What led me to pay $25 for Mailplane way back in 2009 is the same reason I still use it today: support for multiple Google accounts. As pretty or as novel as they were, I could never get them to stick because they usurped too much of the genuine Gmail experience (like priority inbox) that works so well for me. In that time I’ve tried and even purchased several pretenders such as Airmail, Mailbox, CloudMagic, and Sparrow. Mailplane has been around for what amounts to forever in email time - 9.2 years, according to the home page, which still touts 2013 reviews from websites like Macworld and TUAW. It’s basically a browser wrapped inside of an app, which helps it integrate better with OS X. Why it’s not called "Mailplain" is beyond me, because it’s the least fancy Mac mail client you’ll find.
