YouTube is testing something called Tamba.

Android Authority found icons and references to “Tamba” in the latest YouTube APK. The code mentions followers, follow requests, direct messages, group chats, posts, and voice replies, suggesting it’s a social feature. But the “sandbox” label in the code suggests it could be a testing ground for experimental social features rather than a finished product.

But I want to point out that it’s already November. If you want to read about what it’s like to actually use the Specs, here’s my impressions.

Meta bought an AI coding startup.

First, xAI spent $60 billion on Cursor, and now Meta picked up Conductor for an undisclosed amount, as reported previously by Axios, as they all compete with the likes of Anthropic’s Claude Code and OpenAI’s Codex. Conductor’s product is built to let software engineers manage multiple agents at once, and says it will wind down its existing setup: * Conductor Cloud goes read-only on November 13 and shuts down on November 20. * Local Conductor keeps getting new models and critical bug fixes until early 2027.

AMC has “recovered,” says CEO Adam Aron.

”In recent years, where other key players in our industry collapsed, at AMC we repeatedly instead have talked about recovery,” Aron says in AMC’s Q3 2026 earnings report. “Today, we can finally say that AMC has recovered.” AMC’s total revenues reached more than $1.7 billion during the quarter, while October domestic box office increased 35 percent during the same time last year, with big flicks like Dune: Part Three, Avengers Doomsday, and The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping, still set to arrive later this year.
