The Italian tech holding company Bending Spoons, has developed a reputation for buying tech companies past their peak and aggressively cutting costs.
The firm acquired Evernote in 2022, followed by Meetup and WeTransfer in 2024, and AOL and Eventbrite in 2025.
Layoffs followed many of those deals. In September 2024, just months after being acquired by Bending Spoons, WeTransfer laid off 75% of its staff.
Just months after Bending Spoons bought Vimeo for $1.38 billion last ye…

A few months after handing in my thesis and receiving my Master of Science degree in 2022, ChatGPT was released. Essentially, nothing about how I solve problems has changed since then, but I had to continuously observe the brain drain around me. It's weird how the majority of people suddenly treat anything an LLM spits out as truth while I stick to good old search engines (with the additional hurdle of now having to filter LLM garbage from my search results).

According to the latest national survey by Reef Check Malaysia, about one-fifth of the country’s coral cover has been lost since 2022, a decline compressed into just three years. What had been gradual erosion now looks more like a slide. The 2025 […]
