@asxna Wow weeks of human struggle, solved by the AI in one hour.

@caleb_friesen I want to contribute

Extremely disappointed with @FlightsMojo. Booked flight tickets for my parents and requested cancellation on the same day (6th Dec). Gave written consent last week, yet the refund is still not credited. This delay is unacceptable. When will my money be returned?

Amazon is laying off 14,000 employees, including in India, as AI takes over their roles.

The cruel part is how fragile private sector “stability” is. You get a job, start earning, feel settled, plan a future, buy a house on EMI, and one fine morning the company decides to “downsize”. Suddenly, you’re jobless. If a new job doesn’t come quickly, those EMIs can destroy your peace and your life.

And the govt! While you earn, you must pay taxes. The moment you lose your job, you’re on your own. Farmers get compensation when crops fail, despite many paying zero income tax, but a taxpayer losing his job gets practically nothing.

Maybe it's time to introduce reforms like make EMI pauses for few months more liberal for those who lose their jobs, and providing a time-bound monthly allowance for few months from the govt, except for disciplinary cases of course. Ladla/Ladlis can get free money, free ration, free water and electricity, so why not support a worker who has been paying taxes and contributing?

Feeling disheartened. As a fresher, I reached out to 10+ employees for a referral—8 accepted, none saw my message. I know people are busy, but being unheard really hurts when you're just starting out.

This release includes several performance improvements. Metro is now >3x faster to cold start! Android apps will also be faster thanks to changes to JS bundle compression.

We are excited to launch the Perplexity Assistant to all Android users. This marks the transition for Perplexity from an answer engine to a natively integrated assistant that can call other apps and perform basic tasks for you. Update or install Perplexity app on Play Store.

[Gergely Orosz @GergelyOrosz]

This release is a big deal because:

1. It's the second major agentic coding workflow released with public access. (First one was Devin)

2. Pricing. Unlike Devin that charges $500/month right now. Copilot Workspace Preview is free.

3. GH integration. A big sell+onboarding win!
