I don't think we're talking about the same kinds of roads. In an area zoned for residential, e.g. a small town or village, the speed limit will drop and there are noise restrictions. That's quite common, although also quite s

Sounds like CA and IA work differently. 45 is the speed limit for that highway because it's windy. On the straighter roads, the limit is usually 50-55. However, there are still no speed zones (as you call them) for small clusters of

That's not true everywhere. My wife's parents live in rural Iowa on a highway that has a 45 mph speed limit. Their home is part of a small cluster of homes and their mailbox is across the road, similar to the circumstances in the

I'm with you, but we're fighting the losing fight. As an aside, what a brilliant marketing name. Daylight is in peril and we all adjust our clocks to save it from the treacherous grasp of morning. We're heroes!

My grandparents retired on the eastern shore of the Leelanau peninsula, very near the town where the recently discovered 93 pound stone was found. We would walk the shoreline after a fresh rain to find these. They kept buckets full of them

"Red" is an objective attribute; "bad" is a subjective one. I agree that self-evaluation and recognition of inferior practices will help one progress, but the article would be more effective if the author was less condem

Do you have any supporting evidence for this? Not trolling here; I'm genuinely curious.

The Analytics Edge[1] on edX might be what you're looking for. In one of the lessons, they do some rudimentary recreations of the analysis described in Moneyball. [1]: https://courses.edx.org/courses/course-v1:MITx

Be careful with too much french press. It has been linked with increased blood cholesterol levels[1]. I made the switch to filter-based coffee brewing methods because my levels were high. Obviously not a problem for everyone, but for those
