Learning Goal

At the end of this lecture, learners should be able to understand the problems they can solve now and that there's a problem that so far cannot be solved. They should also have some examples of what "metrics" are and where to find them in the real world.

Notably, they should not yet know the details of the problem that metrics solve (e.g. expressing a numeric state of a given system, as well with time-series how to express that over time)
