So they got all that money from Uncle Sam's CHIPS Act only to lay off 10,000 employees and make themselves "lean". Govt funded unemployment.

they fired the guy that single handedly managed meshcommander https://github.com/Ylianst/MeshCommander

it was a tool to remotely control intel vpro machines, intel's own tool is not as good as what the old ex-employee did in his free time

It’s harder to do it with 50 people than with 5.
