Day: October 30, 2025

Daily update is a regular report or piece of information that’s shared on a daily basis. It could be anything from a work status or project report to a personal checklist of tasks for the day. Daily updates are essential to ensure transparency, maintain momentum, and create a sense of accountability.

When you add daily updates to your Action, users receive Assistant notifications each day at a pre-scheduled time. The notifications appear on their phones or other devices as Assistant prompts, so they’re a powerful tool for keeping users engaged with your Action. To get the most out of this feature, design your Action well and give users a good reason to want to subscribe to daily updates. You can include a registration prompt mid-conversation or as a suggestion chip, or you can use the default daily updates subscription flow when your action finishes successfully.

To configure your Action to deliver daily updates, open it in the Actions console and click Develop in the top menu. Next, select Intents in the left menu and add a new daily updates subscription flow to the user intent handling section of your Action. Then, when your Action finishes successfully, it will invoke the daily updates intent and automatically start delivering updates to the user each day. If you’re using the default daily updates system scene, this will continue until the user manually unsubscribes or your Action is turned off. This is a great way to help your users stay connected to your action, without interrupting their workflow or disrupting their experience with Assistant.

As a candidate for president in 2016, Donald Trump railed against free trade agreements that he deemed unfair. He promised to bring manufacturing jobs back to America and embarked on a protectionist campaign. The campaign has led to a slew of new tariffs that he claims are necessary to combat unfair trade practices.

A trade war can have a number of negative impacts on the economy. The biggest is that it can lead to higher prices for consumers, reducing their after-tax income. In addition, higher tariffs can make parts and materials more expensive for manufacturers. This can also reduce private sector output, lowering overall economic activity.

In an extreme scenario, a trade war can elicit a military response from the other party. This is what happened when the Smoot-Hawley Tariff increased import taxes to protect American farmers in the early 1930s. This contributed to a global economic meltdown and sparked the rise of extremism that led to World War II.

During a truce in March, Trump and Xi agreed to halt new tariffs while they work toward a trade agreement. However, tariffs remain in place on many goods imported from China. And a US court has ruled that the president’s authority to impose tariffs on a whim is not constitutional. If this ruling stands, the president’s ability to levy tariffs could be reduced drastically. This could have a direct effect on the economy as it may limit his ability to take action against China, especially since the court case will be heard by the Supreme Court next month.
