After 8 years writing the tech column @washingtonpost, I am among folks who were laid off today. I’m grateful for the stories I got to tell and the impact we made on privacy, sustainability & AI.

@fredlambert I just want to thank @fredlambert for sharing honest analysis about Musk and Tesla. As a tech journalist who owns his second (2024 LR M3) Tesla, I have great things to say about the car but critical things to say about @elonmusk's toxicity and some of his recent decisions.

@daltonbrewer Can someone please explain what's going on with FSD on the new 2024 "Highland" Model 3. I see a notice that it's coming in an 'upcoming software update" but no indication if its available but just waiting to arrive on my car or it's not available for any 2024 Model 3. @Tesla

The average price for a new car is about $47,000.
You can get a Tesla Model Y RWD for $36,490 after Federal Tax Credit.
Or a Tesla Model Y AWD Long Range for $41,490 after Federal Tax Credit.
Or a Tesla Model Y Performance for $44,990 after Federal Tax Credit.
The Tesla Model Y is the world’s best selling vehicle — all trims under the average new car price.
It makes no sense to buy a new ICE vehicle right now in 2024.
Tesla has the safest cars that are the most American made.
No gas, no oil changes, minimal to no maintenance.
Soon they’ll be able to become fully autonomous and drive themselves.
Pass on gas and drive a Tesla — the real leader in the electric revolution.

Shame on @JetBlue at JFK for not letting me carry my CPAP machine case onboard along with carry-on and then having the audacity to charge me $45 to check my bag so I could take CPAP on board. Pretty sure they violated an FAA rule. Never happened before.
