Rumour - Intel is firing 10.000 workers to appease shareholders

“Appease”?
Is this supposed to be some sort of sacrifice to their Godkings?

I am sure shareholders would be more interested how you are planning to turn your business around.
If i was a shareholder i would feel appeased if the C levels of that company were to be replaced. But i guess they have contracts that pretty much absolve them of any mismanagement anyway and require the company to pay millions in severance.

I mean, that's what happens when you get lapped by the competition. Job's are not a privilege, if your performance is lagging you fitting to get cut. It ain't brain surgery.
The problem is that the ones that are paying the price for any lagging aren't usually the ones in charge of why things are lagging. Like, for example, if you paid a workforce to make cookies that taste like oxidized CPU's, it would be pretty messed up if the person who told those employees what to do was spared the consequences of their dumb decision while the employees shouldered all of the pain.

Well I guess I'm buying AMD for the foreseeable future. Even if Intel cleans it's act up and makes better Chips, I'm not supporting this.
