Will this change the situation of the 75% of engineers who just got laid off, or is this just to fund the framework, rather than the Tailwind Plus team?

Hopefully! Turns out 75% was of four total developers. Ideally Google would be giving them enough to re-hire three people.

If they have 3 left, that's 9 engineers. I doubt it'll bring them back unless this is a huge package. a few million only delays the inevitable by a year or 2.

From what I understand, 3 left and they had 4 total. Not 3 are there and they had 9 total

They had 8 people total: 3 founders (who is still there), 1 businessy/partner program person (who is still there) and 4 devs, 3 of which were laid off.

They now have 5 people total - 3 founders, the business person, and 1 other dev, which according to Adam’s podcast was the first dev they hired.
