The only waste they need to cut is the CEOs job. Clearly clueless and his decisions fucked the company. Though the board probably pushed for it or signed it off

The measley non Google portion of revenue is 81m dollar. If you pay a top dev 200k, you could pay 100 top devs 20m and still have 60m to play with.

This is even before considering a Bing/Yahoo/Ecosia deal.

Mozilla will be fine, but they’ll likely need to be leaner. Lay offs will likely play a part in that. Just got to hope they size and structure it right.

A business easily offers a 40% discount. You didn’t critically assess that, ask how, and give off vibes it was a charitable and Intel was ungrateful. TMSC while an interesting business is still a big corp with profitability at heart.

Even if Intel aren’t the good guys, you cannot assume TMSC is. I like AMD, but I’m under no illusion they could throw consumers under the bus tomorrow for self interest. Right now, it’s king for Linux hardware though.

The key word is temporarily. How long ago was this?

Calling people dumb then throwing a weak argument doesn’t make it stronger.

They’re on wafer thin margins with vendor lock in. The strategy was not successful.

If you can offer a 40% discount and still make profit, your prices are probably 3 times the cost.

If you cannot go to another supplier, you have vendor lock in.

I’m an AMD guy, so I got no skin in the game defending Intel, but if you’re shilling this much for TSMC, you aren’t really bringing an unbiased opinion.

Who possibly saw that if you kill your manufacturing and buy from a company with monopoly power, they could write there own profits.

Sometimes big companies are really dumb.

That poster has a point. I’m a Brit here, so no skin in the game. You’re more focussed on being right that trying to comprehend that people look at things differently.

No one thought Biden was good, but he was the candidate and most know that name recognition is key in US elections. Most presential candidates fail on their first run. Kamala, despite having some OK polling numbers still has to get through to disengaged American voters who do not follow politics and probably know little more than the attack lines heropponents will throw at her this campaign. They have to define her before others do. This option is riskier than you realise, the only thing that changed was Biden became a riskier option than before.

Things are less black and white than you want them to be. Nuance and grey area is key, despite being inconvenient.

It isn’t rocket science. You recruit from the market or train your own.

It’s painful they do not get this.

Or-der… Or-derrrrr?

You grew up on reddit?

I’m confused. I remember when they shitcanned Xbox One version in favour Bedrock which was a buggy mess. Strategically they wanted everyone to play together which made sense and Bedrock progressed. This feels a bit like a betrayal. I guess values go out of the window when there is enough money on the table.

Or finding much of it poor quality.
