you ever get seated at a restaurant right near a person at a different table who talks really loud
and you try to ignore their conversation because eavesdropping is rude and you really don't want to hear what they're saying anyways
and ten minutes later you know everything about this lady's fight with her contractor to get him to cut a gap under her fence so the toxic chemicals she uses to clean her porch can runoff into the city storm drain

Have you ever looked closely at a car windshield?
The edge of the glass is painted where it is glued to the car but it has these small dots between the clear and painted glass.
These are there for a reason. When the sun hits the glass the painted areas and the clear areas will absorb heat at different rates. This causes the glass to expand and contract differently putting stress on the glass.
These dots help the glass to warm up more evenly over a larger area so the glass does not suffer stress that could cause it to spontaneously explode.
Fun fact: the Tesla cybertruck doesn’t have these.
Yes, the glass will spontaneously crack or explode in the sun.
Lots of thoughts recently. Everything feels plastic.
