I'm not generally given to conspiracy theories, but I can't help but wonder about whether there was something else that contributed to his death. There is just too much money at stake with Boeing.Hopefully his sacrifices will lead to changes at Boeing. R.I.P.
Boeing whistleblower John Barnett found dead in US
Prior to his death, John Barnett was testifying against Boeing over concerns about standards.
I'm not either but after years of screaming that Boeing was doing bad things, people are finally listening to him. This is not the time to give up on life.
I must have flipped to the next episode to quickly to see the memorial card at the end of episode 1, and at the end of episode 2 I was mad Arman is still missing so went searching to see why he wasn't on the show.

I honestly didn’t know people were living in iron lungs. He was remarkable and had so much dignity. Also NYT obit:RIP Paul Alexander. I’m sorry I only heard about him on his death but have read a lot about him today and what an amazing and inspiring guy he was.

Paul Alexander worked as a lawyer and lived for decades in a metal cylinder which breathed for him.
The Raspberries were able to blend pop, rock and some beautiful harmonies. I think they deserved more appreciation. Eric Carmen was good with them and in his solo career. RIPHungry Eyes is one of my favourite songs from the 80s. R.I.P.

He was a brilliant mind. A fascinating book about their work by the always-readable Michael Lewis is called The Undoing Project.If you've studied psychology/judgment and decision making/business/econ, you've probably come across the work of 2002 Nobel Prize Laureate Daniel Kahneman:
Daniel Kahneman, Who Plumbed the Psychology of Economics, Dies at 90 (Published 2024)
He helped pioneer a branch of the field that exposed hard-wired mental biases in people’s economic behavior. The work led to a Nobel.
In an anecdote told in his Nobel Prize bio, he wrote about realizing that his mother was right and that "people were endlessly complicated and interesting." His work with his late colleague Amos Tversky has been foundational in understanding some of what drives our complexities and interesting behaviors.
May his memory be a blessing.
