Reply to comment by RadBadTad in ELI5: with food (like Gouda) that need exact temperatures to create, how did people in early civilisation do it? Would their dishes often come out ruined/different? by [deleted]
Agreed on most of what you said, with a small correction: that people today have more time and can watch movies, entertainment, etc, because of advances that freed our time. Previously people used to spend a lot more of their time finding and growing food, crafting stuff, etc, mostly during daylight before electricity enabled people to see brightly at night. (so people also probably slept more too)
