"Sprint" is an agile buzzword, it does not imply speed or urgency.

A "sprint" is a unit of time which defines the frequency of meetings where teams re-evaluate their immediate priorities. Usually somewhere in the fortnite-month range.

Where do you live that you can safely drive at the speed limit?

If you tried that on an interstate in the US, you would end up with annoyed semi trucks tailgating you, and passing motorists might assume that you are impaired.

The USPS is required to maintain unusually massive pension obligations, and it is expected to pay for itself.

They would sell their own grandmothers for a chance to balance their books, hence the Faustian junk mail bargain.

Really? I guess I'd believe it. He was a wealthy aircraft designer / Hollywood A-lister.

Fun fact about Howard Hughes, he once crashed a biplane during the filming of a movie he was directing. (One of four airplane crashes he experienced)

The stunt pilots had all refused to try the maneuver he wanted to do, so he hopped into the plane, took off, and did exactly what they anticipated.

It's not clear whether he was pulled from the wreckage or found in a nearby hangar after walking away from it, but he survived and finished the movie, which made a loss despite being the top-grossing film of 1930.

Celebrities, eh?
