    I also have “strong cost discipline”. That’s why I don’t buy Microsoft products…

    Weird. I read somewhere else about Microsoft naming and shaming Meta for firing 10k employees… Huh.

    Can confirm. Talked to my friend at the bar about it last night. He’s an Xbox game dev. (I also got a preview of the new folding laptop they are releasing soon - wow, the hardware is sleek.)

    Anyhow, he said it’s rolling through the ranks over there. We went off for an hour about Windows dev stuff, or rather lack thereof. He’s not pleased with his company.

    Dude is a top tier Rust dev for them.
