Statement from Executive Editor Matt Murray: “For three decades, Ellen Nakashima has been one of the most careful, fair-minded, and highly regarded reporters covering national security. Reaching out to potential sources rather than relying solely on official government press

This is good & nuanced reporting about Microsoft. — Microsoft’s headcount reached 228K. That’s massive! For context: That’s 70ish % of what Sears employed at its peak. — Right now, the emergence of AI is not a cost saver for Microsoft. It’s billions in required new spending.
