Researchers have found a universal law that predicts how objects shatter, from glass bottles to liquid drops.

LLM-written article.
Intriguing topic, though.
Read the article, but my question was not answered:
Is spaghetti amongst these ‘most objects’?
Or will spaghetti breaking remain a mystery?
Spaghetti will break into randomly sized smaller spaghetti like objects
Why do you think it is a mystery?
Apparently my information was outdated. But for decades scientists were unable to explain why spaghetti usually breaks into more parts than two, when bended.
Here, have something to read: link to news.mit.edu article
If it’s only most objects is it really a law? I’m just a dumb guy, but that seems contradictory. My understanding is that gravity is a “Law” because it interacts, in one way or another, with EVERYTHING
In physics, law mostly just means a clear formula which always applies when you’re within some specific parameters (Newton’s laws when below relativistic speeds)
There are no laws in science. Some call things law for whatever reasons, but they are not. We have theories, the highest thing there is, which explain everything we can observe usually to a level of accuracy that is extremely good.
