This has to do with how the eggs are sanitized before they're sold. In places where you need to keep them refrigerated, they've been washed in such a way that a protective layer has been removed. In countries that keep their eggs on the counter, this has not been done.

Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, right near the end. I don't want to spoil too much, but I never thought a game mechanic would make me emotional.

Me too. But I'll just note, I think you have to have played the first Spiderman game and Miles Morales to really get it. It needs that emotional build up over time.

If you immediately know the candlelight is fire, then the meal was cooked a long time ago.

It hasn't been updated in a while, but you might appreciate Cooking for Engineers. All their recipes have a Recipe Card format which diagrams exactly when steps should happen in relation to each other.

Here's an example: https://www.cookingforengineers.com/recipe/36/Meat-Lasagna/trn

Stuart Semple hates Anish Kapoor. He hates him so much that he requires those who purchase his paints to sign that they are not Anish Kapoor, are not buying them for Anish Kapoor, and will do everything they can to make sure they do not end up in the possession of Anish Kapoor.

I used to, but oddly it's stopped. I think it may be around the time I stopped having the ringer on by default, which is odd as the phone still vibrates.

At this rate, Bronze Age 2: (non) Electric Boogaloo

You have 2 apples. I give you 2 more. How many apples do you have? Unless you redefine what the numbers or the operators mean, then you now have 4 apples. That's a truth that is evident in the world and can be verified. That's what a fact is.

He didn't suggest we could never determine the age of the moon. He said that science refines it's methods and gathers new information, and so we may change our estimate of its age based on new evidence.

Only if you completely redefine some aspect of the equation. You'd have to define "5" to actually mean "4" or change the meaning of "+" or "=" in some way that changes the operation. 2+2=4 isn't just an abstract statement, it's based on the way the physical world works. If you have 2 apples, and then I give you 2 more, you don't suddenly have 5 apples because we all decided 2+2=5.

Orwell's meaning in 1984 wasn't about belief changing the world, it was about the power of brainwashing and how fascism demands obedience.

...you mean phones?

Basically, physics says that nothing, not even information can actually travel faster than the speed of light. It's a universal limit that shows up when you do the math on relativity. This concept is called "causality".

Because of this, FTL communication is probably impossible. Quantum entanglement seems like it could provide a loophole, but it doesn't actually work that way. To actually use quantum entanglement for communication, it actually needs a confirmation message, which would have to be delivered by a different means (every quantum message needs a non-quantum confirmation). That confirmation would be bound by the speed of light, thus preserving causality.

This is a very very rough description based on my memory, so some details may be a little off, but it should cover the gist. This article goes into more detail:

Edit: After reading, the answer is more that attempting to impart information onto the entangled particles to send a message necessarily breaks the entanglement and thus does not transmit the information to the other side. Entangling the particles makes their states related to each other, but only at the time of entanglement, and anything that changes either particle (including measuring it) will break the entanglement going forward.
