  • Could be my professional deformation as a food technologist, but for some things, most notably baking, I absolutely demand proper measurement.

    With enough things considered (for baking: weight of the ingredients, gluten strength and moisture content of flour, yolk to white ratio in eggs, fat content in milk, humidity, leavening/baking temperatures, steaming/not steaming, moisture of additional components, order of assembly - measure and plan out as much as you can) you’ll always have a perfect bake instead of “oh, ended up not quite as I wanted”.

    Exactly! That’s why we have a concept of observable universe.

    As the universe expands (think of it not as ants moving, but more space created between ants as balloon gets inflated), at some distance away from us it starts doing so faster than light.

    The light, however, can only travel at, well, the speed of light. As such, we will never see or reach anything that is beyond this light speed horizon. And as the expansion of the universe speeds up, more and more objects that we can still observe will disappear beyond this point.
