Why stop with the executives? Why not throw the shareholders into jail --- they approve the selection of the executives and benefit from whatever malfeasance you are targeting.
Most shareholders have no real say in the company, though it’s fair to investigate what the board knew and how they acted, as they serve on behalf of the shareholders.
I do think there needs to be legal culpability for anybody who was informed of risks and pushed on regardless. Though I can see where it would be very hard to prove anything.
It really is a tough problem here. I hope that somebody will be seriously punished for the deaths of hundreds, but I’m very doubtful.
Has anyone visited these sites in the last few years? (The field trip was in 2006.) Has construction, road repairs, etc. obscured many of these? I know of a few roadway offsets in the immediate Bay area that have been "fixed" and are no longer visible.
"...you'd want to work for..." This is a misleading framing. The private equity firm only wants to make the deal work financially and only for them. Anything else is secondary. You shouldn't be thinking about their respect, wanting to work for them, or anything beyond the deal terms.
Thank you. Putting my thoughts into my comment made me wonder a bit more about the translation I am reading which is Butler’s translation included in the Great Books of Western Culture. It apparently is a somewhat weak translation when compared to modern ones and so I might switch to something modern to see if that helps.
With Homer, which translation you read can make a huge difference for the reading experience. Older translations tend to be far more purple and ornate, while recent translations, like Emily Wilson's, are far more straight forward with a more restrained diction and helpful translation notes and introductions. It's all really a matter of degree, though.
There's not really anything to it. As I mostly use console.athropic.com workbench(the API pay-as-you-go), I haven't played around much with the Artifacts--I am probably getting a Claude Pro subscription later today. But yeah I just copy/pasted my 2 code files in the window, told it I wanted a conversational voice interface model, and in less time than it took to describe it, it wrote it and even saved a bunch of output tokens by saying where to copy large parts of the first file's boilerplate code. That had been a project I started around Easter and had kept putting off because it felt too hard for my somewhat limited time. But there's no moat or special setup to this stuff; anybody who can communicate in a text box can productively use this tool.
I currently tested the cursor IDE [1]. It’s vscode with nice ai integrations made with great ux in mind. They integrate with ChatGPT and Claude Sonnet/ Opus. For my experience (rust/typescript) the sonnet 3.5 model is giving me better results.
You can pass the current file, or multiple files or your whole project as context to the models.
It s prob not gonna work well: he fixes demo of the api of Claude with Claude. You didnt think of asking the AI, so you need more work on your own inference abilities first
Phosphoric acid, hydrochloric acid, and boiling sulfuric acid: I should have paid more attention in chemistry lab. This is a neat project and answered a lot of questions.
It's not as scary as it sounds :-) For a chip this small, I only need a few drops of chemical, which cuts the risk way down. I don't have beakers full of hydrofluoric acid and red fuming nitric acid, like the real decappers.
Depends on what you learned during that "ton of experience programming." My only regret was that I had, but stupidly ignored, the MIT course notes that preceded publication of SICP. I didn't realize what I had missed until many years later when I sat down to work my way through SICP. I coulda been a contender.
