So much for the hype—Lenskart’s IPO was the talk of the town, with investors queuing up to get a piece of the action. But when the shares finally hit the market, the party fizzled out faster than a flat soda. Despite a 28x oversubscription and a sky-high valuation, the stock opened below its issue price, dipped sharply, and only managed to claw back to breakeven by the end of the day. It seems the market’s love affair with Lenskart cooled off the moment the trading bells rang, leaving analysts scratching their heads and investors wondering if they bought into a dream or a mirage.

Move over, GitHub Copilot—there's a new AI sheriff in town, and it's not interested in making developers work faster; it's interested in making developers *obsolete*. Lovable's audacious mission to democratize software creation isn't just another 'AI coding assistant' pitch—it's a direct challenge to the gatekeeping inherent in traditional tech. If they pull this off, the 99% who've been locked out of the digital economy might finally have a key to the kingdom, and the entire developer hierarchy could face an existential reckoning.[2] Founded in 2023, Lovable has rapidly ascended to a reported $4 billion valuation by positioning itself distinctly from mainstream competitors like GitHub Copilot and Cursor, which optimize workflows for existing developers.[2][4] Instead, Lovable targets non-technical users who can describe their vision in plain language, and the platform generates functional software in real time—from landing pages to dashboards to full prototypes.[2] With approximately 30% of Fortune 10,000 companies already leveraging the platform, Lovable is reshaping the software development landscape by making creation as accessible as writing a document or recording a video, fundamentally changing how entrepreneurship and innovation can emerge from the broader population.[4]

When AI is touted as the future of increased efficiency and smarter workflows, it turns out it can also moonlight as the latest corporate hustle. In a viral Reddit post, a techie revealed how his startup weaponized AI tools not to empower employees, but to squeeze them financially—making staff pay upfront for AI subscriptions that never got reimbursed and adding layers of reporting just to claw back their own money.

Assam is about to make polygamy officially illegal—because apparently in 2025, we still need to legislate against marrying multiple people simultaneously. Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma's cabinet has approved the Assam Prohibition of Polygamy Bill, 2025, which will be tabled in the state assembly on November 25, introducing up to seven years of rigorous imprisonment for offenders and establishing a compensation fund for victimized women. This landmark legislation represents a significant reform in personal law, though it notably excludes Scheduled Tribe communities and Sixth Schedule areas like BTAD, Dima Hasao, and Karbi Anglong, respecting existing customary tribal practices. The bill also proposes stringent penalties including up to ten years imprisonment for those concealing previous marriages and up to two years for abettors such as Kazis, priests, or guardians, while establishing financial support mechanisms to ensure women affected by polygamous marriages can rebuild their lives with dignity and security.
