Reply to comment by TheGunslingerStory in Mikaela Shiffrin gets her record 86th World Cup victory by Jokobib
This is more like Nascar. She's won "86 races" and the races per season count towards the year's Nascar Cup series championship. It would be wrong to say Jimmie Johnson won 80 Nascar cup series championships. He won 80 races and 7 championships. She won 86 events in the World Cup. But she only actually has like 5 World cups.

"Never heard of". She's literally the face of US Olympics right now.

Tidal heating is a thing. Jupiter does do a bit of that to it's moons but it's moons also do that to each other.

Not quite sure what you're saying, but no, everything isn't traveling from Earth at the same speed. But I'm saying wherever you are in space, you'd see the same frequency if you look far enough as you see on Earth? So, our observable universe is about 46b lightyears in radius. To us, we're at the center right? We see a redshift of x when looking straight "up" to the very edge of our universe. If we can teleport to this this spot instantly and look around us, we'd still see a universe of about 46b lightyears in radius (just would be mostly different things as you could see from Earth. If you then looked straight "up" from this spot, you'd still see the same redshift of x as you saw when you looked at your current spot from Earth. So, how could you ever tell what the central point is if everywhere you go, you'd have the same size observable universe and same shifts?

It wasnt centralized though. Basically the current theory is the universe is/was always infinite and is just a bigger infinite now. The mass might have been far denser and closer together before the space expansion, but it wasnt in like a 1 mm radius sphere or something. It was always in an infinitely sized space.

This is true if we're going off the belief the universe is infinite. Then yes, everyone can only see in a 46b radius and are therefore at the "center" of their universe.

Reply to I make 42k and I work from home 4 out of 5 days a week. I signed a 60k offer onsite 23 miles there and back 45 min, 45 min back. Does this make any sense? by RemarkableCell1859
No offense but 42k is fuck all money. This is absolutely worth it and your time honestly isn't worth that extra 18k and what it'll open up for you in the future. If it was an 80k job to a 100k job, then yea, the money might not be worth it. But 42k to 60k? 100% worth it.
