If you want to see what you should never do as a software engineer if you like not being in jail, this is it.
Singh will definitely get prison time as well, though I'm sure all the higher-ups in FTX are trying to point fingers to get deals. In the Madoff scandal, 2 of Madoff's programmers were sentenced to 2 1/2 years each. In this case, Singh has much more culpability as a higher-up (not to mention a pre-collapse billionaire).
