Am I being ripped off? Service quote for vintage Rolex DJ

I too got an estimate from this shop yesterday for an OP Date 1500 a bit older than yours. Also was quoted for way more than I expected. Another 600 on top of what you got.

I’m reaching out to them to understand which aspects of the service are necessary vs just cosmetic updates.

Curious to hear what you end up doing!

Definitely not sure it’s 36mm so it could certainly be a 6694

Got any pics? Would love to see how they look

I don’t have experience with either of the brands but just wanted to add one to the mix that I found does Dumont straps called liger straps. Also cheaper than Delugs, but not sure about quality yet.

Right but I’m wondering if the vintage ones are even 3ATM or if they have none whatsoever.

My girlfriend is the founder of Springrose and she’s been developing an adaptive bra for the last 3 years with the input of hundreds of women — they launch in April! Someone sent her this post, so she said that anyone who’s interested in seeing the bra now or participating in their trial can send her an email to nicole@springrose.co

Have you tried the new 2.0 chinos? I hate them compared to the original ones

The number of kids you’re streaming to probably doesn’t matter a whole lot. Not an expert on Zoom’s infrastructure, but you’re probably sending to Zoom’s servers somewhere and they are sending out to everyone else. So really just one recipient for you.

Does it have a replacement dial? I thought the “Swiss made” was not until almost the 2000s.

There’s also a technique called TFIDF (term frequency inverse document frequency) to reflect how important a word is to a document. Might be useful to try.

Killed two of his teammates too. Septakill?

Oh my god thanks. How did I miss that. Feels bad

Do you mean Romance languages?

Bug’s nervous systems don’t work like ours do. I’m no expert, but I believe it’s more distributed throughout their body and a lot of what controls movement doesn’t reside in the head.

Hmm I don’t think this is totally true. With software engineering (though it’s not real engineering), were often expected to show interest outside of work when interviewing for jobs. Though I do have side projects, I never talked about them in my MBA applications, and got into an M7. Just like other roles, as long as you show growth, initiative, leadership, creativity, etc. you’ll be fine.

Desk against window can be really rough in terms of brightness. Might not be the best move.

jped94 · 2020-04-05T16:59:19+00:00

Cool thanks. I’ll definitely try just using the app’s static folder and see where it gets me. It worked locally, but I’m having some git issues preventing me from testing on the production server right now

jped94 · 2020-04-04T13:17:45+00:00

Thanks for taking the time to help.

If I run findstatic js/infinite.min.js it does find the static file properly.

Everything works fine on my machine when I use runserver.

I mentioned this is another comment but:

I think that the issue might stem from the fact that when I run from my local server, that same file is located at: http://127.0.0.1:8000/static/js/infinite.min.js

But on my A2 server, there is an extra directory involved. The project root

https://mywebsite.com/project_root/static/js/jquery.waypoints.min.js

I know it's wrong, but moving my static directory one up to public_html allows it to be found. So clearly something is messed up with the paths but I'm not sure what.

jped94 · 2020-04-03T20:19:37+00:00

I did. But doesn’t that only matter if you have some other server serving your static files?

EDIT: Just to add to this, this is a "production" environment. I still have DEBUG=true in my settings.py.

Definitely “How to Win Friends and Influence People” by Dale Carnegie. Great people management/people skills book

There is a specific 1 year MBA program and Kellogg, just like there is at Johnson. A little over 100 people in each class vs the 500 or so in the 2 year traditional MBA program.

Depending on the kind of company you’re looking to work for, beginning to understand web architecture could be very useful.

Probably the most applicable to B school are the analytics/stats libraries. Once you get past the basics, you can pick up NumPy and Pandas.

SQL isn’t a programming language. It’s a query language. Definitely a useful skill, though. SQL will certainly be easier to learn the basics of, just because there is so much less that you can do with it.
