  1. Yeah Edgewater is located in College Park a suburb of Orlando. I moved to Orlando mid way through high school and their fans were known for throwing rocks at opposing teams. We did beat them to go to the state semi finals my junior year and we attempted to steal their goal post before the police shut it down.
  2. I can't imagine driving that thing on the limit in such a narrow street and then this happens:
  3. That experience was Peak Miami. Someone was playing a set in between every major intermission. There was always something to do. There were tons of food local food stalls that were better than expected. God it was so fucking hot though. Thankfully they had water stations everywhere. Like someone else said, ride share was fucked and the lines were insane. On Sunday we paid someone to park in their yard north of the stadium. It cost me $50 compared to he $300 on stubhub or ticketmaster. We got out after the race and after a 20 minute walk we got right on the highway with almost no traffic. I heard from tv watchers the race was boring but I sat at turn 1 and it felt like every lap there was something going on. I ended up paying $3000 for two, 3-day passes at turn 1 and I didn't regret it one bit. I did hear the people who paid for paddock passes were disappointed in the food quality, and that the cabanas were a giant waste of money so definitely a mixed bag in some places
  4. Too late to edit but you can if anyone was interested to hear the answer.
  5. Anyone know if you can resell a single day from a 3-day ticket pack? Looking into some last minute tickets to Miami and if I can make some money back then It would be worth it.
  6. Yeah they renamed it Master's of Science in Data Science now - most of the class designations still carry the old predictive analytics nomenclature in the class codes. I have 3 courses left until I finish so I will be done later this year. It's about half and half these days which classes utilize python and those that require R. The data engineering specialization is almost entirely done in Python. I was managing an engineering team but took a job at a start up that required I manage data engineers and data scientists. I needed to know more about what they do and communicate those results to leadership. I haven't taken a class with Bhatti yet but he is definitely still around. I won't ever really be a data scientist but so far I feel like I am learning enough to have intelligent conversations and ask the right questions of my employees and the models they are building. I love your first two points. That is the one great thing the program reinforces. Data Science should follow a scientific process and there is no perfect model that solves everything you are attempting to do. The start up I work for has decades of cleaned and high quality real estate data. It was all originally built for the founder so he could find off market deals. He realized he could slap a better UI on it, throw some marketing tools in and he has a platform for other real estate investors. Now he wants to build all sorts of analytics capabilities on it to make it more sophisticated and help buyers find deals faster and ultimately make more money. We just started exploring what we can do so who knows where it will end up.
  7. That tweet is going to age like milk
  8. Don’t underestimate aggy stupidity, my dude. Regardless of how rich the individual is.
  9. Did this get passed over to the other pay sites for them to sign as well?
  10. https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/32806349/texas-football-offensive-linemen-secure-nil-deal-get-50000-annually-aid-charitable-causes
  11. Is it just me or does Milwee look like a dime store Jordan Spieth with hairloss?
  12. Texas Recruiting Notes 2022 - Hide the money y'all! There's poor people 'round
  13. Does all of this new NIL stuff change the way the coaches interact with the players at all? There is no way Sark avoided the NIL conversation with ewers. Will flood be more open to talking about it with recruits than Banks has been?
  14. @RGBIII so you guys going to give ewers a little preview of this ultra super secret NIL deal you have been hammering away at?
  15. it's no nurses salary but according to him, yes he makes 6 figs lol
  16. Muschamp needs to stop dicking around at UGA then and come back to Texas. If I'm Sark I would trust Muschamp to do his thing more than I would Gary Patterson
  17. I think you're onto some of the challenges here. A 4 year time horizon is pretty short. You could give them the option to keep it invested post graduation and that would alleviate the concerns about risk levels. Having worked at Fidelity for several years I can tell you it's nearly impossible to teach new money how to hold onto that money. Especially when they come from lower socioeconomic backgrounds. Whoever the advisor is is going to have a hell of a time convincing some of those kids to think about 40-50 years from now rather than next weekend.
  18. Good question. I think they will probably opt for a lower downforce set up because turn 13 and 27 are going to be pretty slow but everything else is fast
  19. He wasn't going to get nothing for signing here. Barbacoa up thread said he was going to get $200k for signing here.
  20. I was starting to wonder if this was ever going down
  21. would this be a disqualifiable offense since the FIA forced people to stiffen the rear wing already? Seems like the mostly likely response would be "cut it out". I still think Mercedes is doing something fucky with the air temp. Since they only look at the average temp over the course of the lap it would be easy to lower temps coming onto a straight and then do something else electronically to make sure the average is still in range. Combine that extra hp, stalled diffuser, engine tuned for 2k miles, and a bendy wing and you can explain why he was driving a rocket.
  22. Unfortunately, you can't offer an NIL deal based on Performance. I am going to bastardize the language but essentially you get into the pay-for-play (on the field) realm when you start offering performance incentives. It needs to be a flat amount based on some service rendered in their name image or likeness. I like your idea of offering some valid business venture partnership but what happens when their play on the field suffers? Do you cut their shares? I don't see how you convince the university this isn't a pay per performance deal. I am genuinely curious though how we can offer better deals to our athletes.
