  1. Maybe. looked out of place and It only caught my eye as I have been restoring a Remington Model 12 takedown .22 and getting a period correct well fitting plate has been a whip.
  2. Here is something to nitpick about....at about 11:15 in S1E6....when the gypsy lady is thinking to sell her late husbands shotgun....you can see the buttplate and it looks plastic. Doubt there was any plate in 1883 or on a weapon from the "old world". Those are the details that matter to me, production details, not story telling.
  3. This was occuring on Staten Island in 2016, the city started a $2 million effort to neuter Staten Island's male white-tailed deer population to potentially reduce the population by 10 to 30 percent. the city gave vasectomies to 78 fawns and 642 adults around the borough, a spokesman for the Parks Department said. Aside from the sterilization, the city is also using other non-lethal methods to deal with the animals including public education campaigns aimed at reducing car crashes and tick-borne illnesses. A 2014 aerial survey on parkland found 762 of the animals — up from just 24 in 2008. The most recent survey in 2016 for the entire borough found only 527 of the animals. I don't know if they kept at it as its costly and would probably take a decade to have a significant effect on Deer population.
  4. Texas attracted many Germans who entered through Galveston and Indianola. I suspect many also came from Russia to San Francisco and then up. It's a television drama, not a history lesson, y'all want to poke holes in shit, then talk about Yellowstone. based tv the only job more dangerous than ranching in Montana is investigating crimes for the Navy.
  5. a simple google search will show that Germans were major immigrants to Oregon in the time period of the show
  6. It's likely one of two things. 1) teenager fucking around 2) someone who doesn't like deer, maybe it's their scat, what they eat, ticks, they hit one w/ their car and the repair bill pissed them off something else dumb.
  7. this disruptive AL/ML/Deep Learning...blah blah blah
  8. I took a call w/ a internal recruiter at a Series C shop last night and I think they are around 175K/180K on a 50/50 plan, Options. I'll talk to the Sales VP net week and get more details
  9. I've been bitch slapping high-tech sales since '96
  10. ah...no. If you are looking for a new gig, you are "good", and you are tenured...you are in the drivers seat and command the comp plan. Ex: I have bene in my current role for over 7yrs and I accepted a new job in Dec, my employer countered with more $ and promises to make some changes for me. So I stayed. I know the prospective new employer have not filled the role and is still interested in me, to the extent that the recruiter I was working with called me last night to see if I would reconsider and started that they would pay more to get me. The "great resignation" is a good thing if you are a qualified seller
  11. I have not been in almost ten years and I doubt I'll ever go again. It really was "cooler" back in the day and there are other places to go if you want rustic, that being said, when i want Lux, I'll always go back to the Rosewood Mayakoba.
  12. I wish I could say the same for George Zip
  13. How about here: https://www.slideshare.net/ Slideshare is a website which allows you to post content - PDFs, PowerPoint slides, videos, and others - as a presentation. Presentations can then be searched, viewed and shared by anyone. or here: https://www.google.com/slides/about/
  14. I'd like to see a sanitized version of the deck
  15. I'm just kicking the can down the road. It's bad mental health for me, but good for my kids.
  16. I accepted an offer, gave my notice and was ready to leave for the new gig and my employer countered. I;m happy to stay as I don't want to be out there "pounding the pavement" as it were with Covid and two young kids that are not old enough to be vaxxed but I regret staying. I'm back out again as soon as I can get my kids squared away, at least I get to collect a retention bonus in July.
  17. How about some chilled piss?
  18. Both WFR/RIFs I've been a part of had Legal and HR, one a the Fortune #56 the other a smaller shop. I'm old, I've been doing what I do for over 25 YRS. Much of their participation depends on why the RIF/WFR is happening and are there items to consider like Benefits, Stock Options, Non Competes, Confidentiality, Inventions, etc.
  19. typically, HR and Legal should do it and not your Manager, you can talk to them later, but the actual call or meetings should be those other departments and a different manager from your department.
  20. kinda, some RIFs and WFR or whatever are executed better than others and it all depends on your severance and options in the market.
  21. but you had to drink the whole thing vs I only need two or three fancy boy beers.
  22. I spent $80 + at the beer shop the other day. Bought 3 Pints of BB Black Ops in cans, 2 Pints of those Bourbon Barrel Goose Islands, a couple cans of a Double NEIPA to try and a four pack of another brand of stours. didn't feel robbed.
