I was wondering how can a user in a group access a file made by a different user

cn flag

For example, I made a file in my directory in a useracc and set the permissions as only groups can read that file How can the user in that group get access to the file I made in my useracc and read that file? For ex: I made a file foo.txt in user bob is part of blue group and alice is part of red group , I want the file to appear in alice account since I set group permissions that groups can read.

One obvious solution is to add Alice to the blue group while keeping her red group membership.

Permissions can be set for a group. Two users will have access if they are a member of the group. Thus, in your example, make "bob" also member of the "red" group. If it is not desired that "bob" has access to all files of the "red" group", then create a dedicated group for this specific project, and add all users that need access to the files of that project to this group.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
