>Nate took his model with him. After he left, 538 rolled a new model. So they let him leave with the only part of it that had value, that's insane. They essentially just paid him for the name?

That's such a great pic. I wonder what the sign is supposed to be for, it's not like birds respect signs. What is it telling humans to do?
