Intel don't announce layoffs anymore
This is a newsflash for the ignorant "but Intel didn't announce layoffs" people
This is what I think Intel should do.
Intel should seriously start a legit foundry business. Lots of big companies make the mistake of fighting inside the castle wall syndrome. When you are winning, you can't take TSMC's customers. When you are losing, they can take your customers... — read more

Note to engineers who think they're not good enough to leave
Honestly, you may be right. It depends on how much you fought to learn useful real technical skills during your career there. TLDR: if you want to leave for greener pastures, you had better get good with technical fundamentals. None of this... — read more

How does Raja compare with Murthy and JimK?
Murthy has PhD from a 3rd tier UK university. Raja has only BS from an Indian college which doesn't seem to be as prestigious as IIT. Of course, we can't tell a person's ability solely by his/her education background, but I think JimK, a Big-Ten... — read more
