Microsoft reported quarterly earnings that impressed investors and showed how resilient the company is even as it spends heavily on AI.
Some investors have been uneasy about the company's aggressive spending on AI, while others have demanded it. During this quarter, Microsoft reported that it spent $20 billion on capital expenditures, nearly double what it had spent during the same quarter last year.
However, the company satisfied both groups of investors, as it revealed it has still been doing well in the short term amid those long-term investments. The fiscal quarter, which covered July through September, saw overall sales rise 16 percent year over year to $65.6 billion. Despite all that AI spending, profits were up 11 percent, too.

To date, 90 sickened, 27 hospitalized and one dead in the multi-state outbreak.
Slivered onions are the likely source of the multi-state E. coli outbreak linked to McDonald's Quarter Pounder burgers that continues to grow, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced Wednesday.
Onions were one of two primary suspects when the CDC announced the outbreak on October 22, with the other being the beef patties used on the burgers. But onions quickly became the leading suspect. The day after the CDC's announcement, McDonald's onion supplier, Taylor Farms, recalled peeled and diced yellow onion products and several other fast food chains took onions off the menu as a precaution. (No other restaurants have been linked to the outbreak to date.)
According to the CDC, traceback information and epidemiological data collected since then have all pointed to the onions and, according to McDonald's, state and federal testing of the beef patties has all come back negative.
The game will take “full advantage of Apple silicon,” CD Projekt Red says.
Cyberpunk 2077, one of the most graphically demanding and visually impressive games in recent years, will soon get a Mac release, according to developer and publisher CD Projekt Red.
The announcement was published on CD Projekt Red's blog and also appeared briefly during Apple's pre-recorded MacBook Pro announcement video. The game will be sold on the Mac App Store, Steam, GOG, and the Epic Game Store when it launches, and it will be labeled the Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition, which simply means it also includes Phantom Liberty, the expansion that was released a couple of years after the original game.
Cyberpunk 2027 launched in a rough state in 2020, especially on low-end hardware. Subsequent patches and a significant overhaul with Phantom Liberty largely redeemed it in critics' eyes—the result of all that post-launch work is the version Mac users will get.
Testing found S. aureus in a homemade noodle dish caused the illnesses.
For some, microwaving fish in the employee lunch room is the ultimate work faux pas. But for one (likely mortified) employee of a seafood distribution plant in Maryland, it's probably causing a mass poisoning with the homemade noodle dish they brought to share for lunch. The dish sickened 46 employees, spurring their employer to hastily release a statement assuring customers that it wasn't the company's food that caused the illnesses.
On October 21, first responders and paramedics arrived at the NAFCO Wholesale Fish Distribution Facility in Jessup, where dozens of employees had abruptly fallen ill about three hours after lunch. Helicopter footage of the event captured images of workers around picnic tables outside the plant, some doubled over and with their heads down.
Ultimately, 46 people were sickened, and at least 26 were treated at an area hospital with symptoms of food poisoning, according to The Baltimore Banner. They all recovered.
M4 and M4 Pro get core count bumps; M4 Max relies on architectural improvements.
Apple's week of Mac announcements has wrapped up this morning with the launch of the new M4 MacBook Pros, and we now have a full picture of the M4 chip lineup that will drive the Mac for the next year or so (excepting the M4 Ultra, if we end up getting one).
Because Apple staggered its product and chip announcements, we've gathered some basic specs from all versions of the M4, M4 Pro, and M4 Max to help compare them to the outgoing M2 and M3 chip families, including the slightly cut-down versions that Apple sells in the cheaper new Macs. We've also rounded up some of Apple's performance claims, so people with older Macs can see exactly what they're getting if they upgrade (Apple still likes to use the M1 as a baseline, acknowledging that the year-over-year gains are sometimes minor and that many people are still getting by just fine with some version of the M1 chip).
| CPU P/E-cores | GPU cores | RAM options | Display support (including internal) | Memory bandwidth | Available in | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Apple M4 (low) | 4/4 | 8 | 16/24GB | Up to two | 120GB/s | $1,299 iMac |
| Apple M4 (high) | 4/6 | 10 | 16/24/32GB | Up to three | 120GB/s | $1,499 iMac, $599 Mac mini, $1,599 MacBook Pro |
| Apple M4 Pro (low) | 8/4 | 16 | 24/48/64GB | Up to three | 273GB/s | $1,399 Mac mini, $1,999 14-inch MBP |
| Apple M4 Pro (high) | 10/4 | 20 | 24/48/64GB | Up to three | 273GB/s | $1,599 Mac mini, $2,199 14-inch MBP, $2,499 16-inch MBP |
| Apple M4 Max (low) | 10/4 | 32 | 36GB | Up to five | 410GB/s | $3,199 14-inch MBP, $3,499 16-inch MBP |
| Apple M4 Max (high) | 12/4 | 40 | 48/64/128GB | Up to five | 546GB/s | $3,699 14-inch MBP, $3,999 16-inch MBP |
At least as far as the Mac is concerned, Apple has technically released six different chips this week under three different brand names. The M4, M4 Pro, and M4 Max all have one slightly cut-down entry-level version with fewer CPU and GPU cores and one more-expensive, fully enabled version.
Dropbox also laid off 500 last year but still had “excess layers of management.”
Dropbox is laying off 528 employees in a move that will reduce its global workforce by 20 percent, CEO Drew Houston announced today.
Houston wrote that Dropbox's core file sync and sharing "business has matured, and we've been working to build our next phase of growth with products like Dash," an "AI-powered universal search" product targeted to business customers. The company's "current structure and investment levels" are "no longer sustainable," according to Houston.
"We continue to see softening demand and macro headwinds in our core business," Houston wrote. "But external factors are only part of the story. We've heard from many of you that our organizational structure has become overly complex, with excess layers of management slowing us down."
