Microsoft to Axe 10,000 Jobs

Microsoft Corp have said they intend to axe 10,000 jobs and take a $1.2 billion charge as their cloud-computing customers dissect their spending and the company braces for potential recession. 
 
The layoffs, announced on Wednesday and far larger than cuts by Microsoft last year, piled on to tens of thousands of job cuts across the technology sector that is long past its ceaseless growth during the coronavirus pandemic. 
 
The news comes even as the software maker is set to ramp up spending in generative artificial intelligence that the industry sees as the new bright spot. 
 
Yesterday, Celtic continued their formidable domestic home form with an emphatic 4-0 win against St Mirren. 
 
Liel Abada crashed in the opener after 15 minutes as the Buddies’ positive start was quickly extinguished. Kyogo Furuhashi added a delicate lob twenty minutes later, and then finished off a sweeping move in the fifty-third minute to ensure Celtic won an 11th consecutive home league game. David Turnbull rifled in the fourth from 25 yards to seal the points in the eighty-sixth minute. 
 
Ange Postecoglou's side remain nine points clear of rivals Rangers after convincingly seeing off the only Scottish side to beat them this season.
