First thing you do after a bad quarter is to fire some thousands of engineers at random

You mean the decade where they tried to make arm processors and gave up just before smartphones became popular or the decade where they tried and failed to make x86 processors for smartphones ?

They had a line of mobile arm based processors that were powering windows mobile devices but they sold that division to Marvell 6 months before the launch of the iPhone, in order to focus on x86

No, in this capitalist world what will happen is that your account number becomes an asset during bankruptcy and they would sell that to some credit recovery agent who would sue you for some bullshit amount of money

Because Google decided to make it opt-in and by default also to send data only in crowded places.

They said it’s because they care about privacy. But because it’s Google and we all know they don’t care a bit about privacyI wonder instead if it’s because keeping track of billions of devices it’s expensive and requires many servers, so it’s a cost cutting measure

They wanted to let companies pay for a non standard 2fa code generation tied to the phone number as it was easier than the mainstream option that was the almost abandoned google authenticator that didn’t allow backups.

Cloudflare, humble bundle used that scheme and I hated them for that. Seems that now that plan failed and essentially now authy is a money-losing operation for twilio and this shows on the unsecured API access that allowed the hack

I really hate this kind of headlines
