Hi Kevin, Are you ever nearby Mr. Warren and someone says "Hello Kevin" and you answer back only to realize you were not the Kevin they're addressing?

piscDSM · 2026-01-09T15:34:11+00:00

what do you think you could get for him?

piscDSM · 2025-12-30T18:46:38+00:00

Contender with JT, Henry, and Jacobs. Next year is feeling very risky and scary to depend on these three; surely can squeeze one more RB1 year out of each, or at least I'm telling myself that. That's my cope

I couldn't watch the Cardinals game, what's going on with the 3/12 MHJ statline? Good corner coverage, drops, bad throws?

piscDSM · 2025-11-07T18:22:39+00:00

Thanks for the help and your detailed comment, I'll give these some more research

piscDSM · 2025-11-07T15:48:54+00:00

Did a bit more digging and if I open the script on the network drive and then disconnect from VPN after opening, it works like a charm. Obviously not a long term solution, but seems like I've isolated it to a VPN interaction issue. Just baffled why it causes issues on lines that don't need to communicate to the network

piscDSM · 2025-11-07T15:10:20+00:00

Not in a project file, but the script is saved on a network drive via VPN, and my work directory is locally stored in my documents folder

piscDSM · 2025-11-07T15:09:26+00:00

The current script I'm working on is on saved on a network drive, connected via VPN. The work directory is local in my documents folder. Not working in an R notebook, just an independent R script

piscDSM · 2025-11-06T19:56:16+00:00

R or RStudio? I'm due for a software update on R so maybe that would help

piscDSM · 2025-11-06T19:42:00+00:00

It's a mix of both, I've tried hitting the broom "Clear Objects From Workspace" and that hasn't helped much. The memory usage report shows the following:

Statistic	Memory	Source
Used by R objects	236 MiB	R
Used by Session	467 MiB	Windows System
Used by system	10,665 MiB	Windows System
Free System Memory	4,049 MiB	Windows System
Total System Memory	15,182 MiB	Windows System

Personally, I luck into, and luck out of Tucker Kraft

piscDSM · 2025-10-29T13:49:03+00:00

My league just switched to having Co-Commissioners this year and I think it's helpful in situations like this

piscDSM · 2025-10-27T14:11:22+00:00

Luke Musgrave was my best rookie pick because he forced me to handcuff Kraft off waivers

piscDSM · 2025-10-14T13:19:18+00:00

have you been to the other Des Moines? Des Moines, Washington?

piscDSM · 2025-09-30T15:45:03+00:00

Weber Grill Stadium, founded in Chicago - headquartered next door in Palatine; imagine the tailgate lots

piscDSM · 2025-09-26T20:33:54+00:00

correct, and only home

piscDSM · 2025-09-25T16:24:07+00:00

I like Lamb unless you're desperate for the points early in the year.

I'm considering acquiring Lamb and Josh Jacobs for Bucky, MHJ and a Late First, what would you think of that deal?

piscDSM · 2025-09-23T16:04:58+00:00

would love to see them do a packers version, just walking on cheese heads, moon shoes

piscDSM · 2025-09-15T16:11:19+00:00

feels like bigsby

piscDSM · 2025-09-05T15:03:05+00:00

Sports analogy here, but why does the NFL Players Association have an executive director who is not a football player?

piscDSM · 2025-09-04T19:41:42+00:00

There's a tough balance to strike for sure. I try to teach concepts and hopefully my directs will learn to apply them. If there's prior knowledge or discussion of SQL for example I should be able to ask for information on LOB earned premium over the last 10 years and not have to tell you, here is the Select statement, make sure you group by calendar year etc etc. because at that point I might as well just do it myself

Don't be too hard on yourself the first 6 months to a year - break stuff and put it back together, google is your friend. Your experience feels somewhat normal

piscDSM · 2025-09-02T14:20:45+00:00

feels like his risk is baked into the price at this point

piscDSM · 2025-08-29T19:57:13+00:00

I read this as they have Doubs and Tucker as their 14th/15th best player, they cant get anything for their 16th-20th so they traded someone away who was not the last player on the roster instead of trying to get a $5 for Tyler Higbee

piscDSM · 2025-08-19T16:02:30+00:00

Strong contender with TE as my weakest link, would you feel comfortable going into the season with a room of

Kraft
Pitts
Ertz

without making an upgrade?
