The stress of the scheme left a key executive 'suicidal for days'Nishad Singh testified against his former boss in court. Jane Rosenberg/ReutersNishad Singh, the head engineer at FTX, testified against Bankman-Fried and spoke to the intense pressure of the scheme. As customers began to withdraw their deposits, FTX didn't have enough liquid cash to actually give them their funds. Instead of working together to solve the issue, executives blamed each other, Singh testified. "In response, Sam said something like, 'We were bulletproof last year, but we're not bulletproof this year,'" Yedidia testified.

Do Trigger Warnings Help or Hurt Students?

On the first day of the spring semester in January, an assistant professor teaching a first-year English composition course at the University of Oklahoma uttered the N-word. For a lesson about the language of empathy, she read Martin Luther King , Jr.’s 1963 “Letter from a Birmingham Jail,” in which the civil-rights leader used the N-word to convey the racial injustice of the American South. After several students complained, the university’s president announced that the incident is under investigation. Part of the problem, students said, is that the professor didn’t preface the reading with a “trigger warning.”“I don’t think a trigger warning excuses a person from saying a racial slur, but I think it would’ve lessened the blow,” says Teegan Smith, a student in the class. “This was very disappointing.”
