The day before Elon Musk fired virtually all of Tesla’s electric-vehicle charging division last month, they had high hopes as charging chief Rebecca Tinucci went to meet with Musk about the network’s future, four former charging-network staffers told Reuters.
After Tinucci had cut between 15% and 20% of staffers two weeks earlier, part of much wider layoffs, they believed Musk would affirm plans for a massive charging-network expansion.
The meeting could not have gone worse. Musk, the employees said, was not pleased with Tinucci’s presentation and wanted more layoffs. When she balked, saying deeper cuts would undermine charging-business fundamentals, he responded by firing her and her entire 500-member team.

kind of amazed there doesn't seem to be any real oversight going on with Tesla, like if Toyota has a faulty brake or wheel or whatever it's national news, while Teslas just routinely ship out with 5 things pre-broken which may or may not be covered by warranty

Yeah we had to literally hand over our fucking car 5 years back because "some" models of it had faulty airbags. Nothing wrong with our actual car but we had no say in the matter, no chance to just fix the airbags - nope. Recall, heres your current-value buyout, off you fuck. Was such an old car we only got like $4k back and, we couldnt remove the after market stereo we'd installed so lost that too :( To see these cars just driving around like nothing... blaaaaa.

he claims this is "satire" in the comments there
(the tech optimist right's (mis)use of the word "satire" to mean "a lie or trolling" is a bizarre thing that could be a thread on its own)

engagement farming is just basically the social media version of old school internet trolling but the sheer volume of people doing it is exhausting, and half of them aren't even monetizing it in any direct or tangential way.
like you got 300 people really angry with a tweet and made no money off of it, congratulations!

surprised tesla hasnt already paid him to take this one down
Another car came to close, autopilot swerved so missed the other car and flipped over a few times, slid across the motor way on the roof and flipped back onto the tires.

All that tweet makes me think of is this classic
18. One day, driving us to our great-aunt's house, Chris took a wrong turn onto a one-way street. He averted there oncoming cars and narrowly avoided a collision with a parked one before finally making it down the block and turning the correct way. There was about a minute of silence, while my mother and I could finally breathe again (my brother, who was less than a year old, was also in the car).Suddenly, Chris beamed. "Man!" he said. "I must be the best fucking driver in the world! Anyone else would have gotten into in accident, but I avoided all those cars [that were headed straight at me because I was stupid enough to make a wrong turn on a fucking one-way residential street], and none of us got hurt." He concluded cockily: "I'm a great fucking driver."― M Matos (M Matos), Tuesday, May 6, 2003 4:06 PM bookmarkflaglink

I have been left with a life-changing experience, that much is true. But not the one I hoped for. Now, the change I have experienced is that I don’t trust as freely and easily, and I certainly don’t believe that moon trips happen to people like me.
