This stinks - @JosephMenn got caught up in the massacre of the Washington Post today.

A BlueSky message from Joseph Menn that reads: Most of the Washington Post’s tech reporters were laid off today, including me. I have loved my time at the paper, which is where I wanted to work from age 15. I take some consolation in not being among the survivors who will have to work harder with less for fewer readers. On to better things.

When the stars get the axe, you know it’s bad. @JosephMenn, the next place will be lucky to get you.
