But yes, Lattner I think went to SiFive. Is/was he still there?
Lattner left some time ago

She could have abolished the monarchy and quit at any time. Monarchies are inherently undemocratic and she was the head of that undemocratic class system for decades while people suffered under the British empire.
I don’t doubt your sincerity, but these feelings in you and others were intentionally cultivated by decades of propaganda. There is no such thing as a rightful king or queen, and certainly no such thing as someone who rules by divine right.
The queen (or king) can abdicate but would not have the power to abolish the British monarchy. That's a constitutional change and would presumably take a Parliamentary act.

The reason most young engineers think this way is 1) they think their work is self-evident and doesn't require demand creation, 2) their management does not engage with marketing and therefore can't convey the value down, and 3) confuses "growth hacking" and "advertising" with the broader work that marketing supports.
...and for the records, they're completely justified here. They have a lot on their plate as a new engineer and this is not an area that has immediate value to them.
also, young engineers are often working on features meant to address market needs discovered by marketers, but they don't know it.

Unless it impacts your performance during working hours
“Unless it impacts your performance during working hours” — Shouldn’t the employer just note the poor performance and tell you to improve, rather than police your personal life? Under your reasoning, an employer could require a certain number of hours of sleep per night.
Yes I've met a number of personable people who I completely disagreed with on politics and their actions, as long as you don't challenge their ideological stances. It's kind of like dealing with an alcoholic as long as you don't challenge their addiction everything tends to go well. It happened to me just last night on the phone. The human mind is a complex thing.
“…as long as you don’t challenge their ideological stances”? Maybe the problem is you

Milken's prosecution didnt really hurt his career much either. Hes still a billionaire (and if I remember right, his brother did very well too).
PS - read Den of Thieves again - there is an imo strong parallel between what was going on with junk bonds in the 80s and what is happening now with VC money. When Milken was indicted, he couldn't keep all the balls in the air anymore and the whole thing fell apart. I'm very interested to see what parallel will play out this time and when.
Didn’t hurt his career much? He was barred from the securities industry forever. Sure he had a lot of money left, but how can you know where his career would go if he weren’t prosecuted? That’s like saying that if Bill Gates were forced to cash out of Microsoft in the 80s it wouldn’t have affected his career much because, after all, he would still be a billionaire

Can we come up with an example of an SEC official building upon an investigation of a "high-ranking financier" in order to obtain high office?
SEC pursued junk bond pioneer Michael Milken in the 1980s, Ivan Boesky before that… unsure of specifics of SEC personnel getting to “high office” because of that but seems obvious that high profile successful prosecutions would be career-making
(Granted those examples are from the 80s but i would think there are more recent examples…)
Milken was prosecuted by Rudy Giuliani which didn’t hurt Giuliani’s career, but Rudy was a US district attorney or something, not SEC
Agree with your sentiment generally though, seems like a boatload of people could have been put away after the financial crisis but they instead profited from bailouts
I don’t know enough, but it looks like software engineers will be blamed in short order.
Good luck!
