  If microsoft stopped producing anything today, they would still make billions per year for many years

    They would, but eventually their competition will overtake them and they will start losing customers and market share. They have to innovate at least a little bit if they wish to stay in the dominant market position that they are in.

      As long as they have one employee who just constantly renamed products, they will be okay.

      Disagree. All they need is a small army of marketers to keep convincing executive idiots they need to have MS Office 365.

      Tech employees are people, too.

      So were SS officials, ICE agents and US cops, people who work in weapons’ manufacturing, etc…
      Fuck you right back.

    Nah as far as I’m aware the CEO is not resigning and there are no leadership changes. They’re mostly laying off artists from game studios, software QA, testers, devs they think they can replace with AI vibe coding etc.
