Those are rookie numbers.
When Merck hid data showing Vioxx was causing heart attacks and death, not only did no one go to jail, but the fines were less than the revenue of the drug.
Vioxx would go on to kill an estimated 50,000 people before being pulled off the market.
Holmes made the mistake of having too few lobbyists and FDA insiders.
Not if you took out a $50k loan for an early gen solar system and it now only saves $30 a month.
Even in Mississippi what you describe would not qualify as a "top of the line house". In fact that would be pretty average working class home.
The kind of homes a lawyer or doctor could afford to buy in low cost area like mississippi can easily be 2 or 3x that size and resemble small castles. Think elevators and wrap around double staircases.
In the USA lots of early adopters of solar did so under net metering agreements where excess electricity is sold back at full price. After a number of years it was costing the utility companies too much money. So they updated the terms such that residents with solar buy electricity at retail prices (~$0.25) but sell it back at wholesale (~$0.04).
So full CPU local AI inference may become viable option in coming years.
Written code is the new compiled code. You never look at it, not even once. Documentation is the new written code.
Every repo has a /docs folder that holds the full specification of the code. Full architectural block diagrams, edge case behavior, style, problem statement, etc. I closely review these docs and make sure that the agent follows these specs and ensures the specs are updated after every code change. In theory an agent could fully rebuild the system from scratch using this documentation.
Maybe this is just pearl clutching, but it helps for when people ask architecture questions and I can answer and pretend I know what's going on.
