It’s important to mention that Sanger had started the WikiProject Intellectual Diversity project to reinforce Wikipedia’s original purpose, which was to provide knowledge neutrally and transparently, especially because, in later years, some people have thought that the site leans toward left-wing ideas.

Sanger said that he feels more sorry for Wikipedia because he was trying to fix the site, but it was overrun by bias and censorship. He wrote about the whole thing for The Free Press, but you can read it only if you are willing to pay the subscription fee.

A study published in Nature Physics provides new molecular-level evidence from simulations that liquid water is not a single uniform substance, but a constantly shifting mixture of two distinct microscopic structures.

The idea that water might exist in two distinct structural states is not new. For decades, scientists have theorized that liquid water is composed of two interconvertible local structures—one denser and more disordered, the other less dense and more ordered.

This “two-state model” has been invoked to explain water’s many anomalous properties, including why it becomes easier to compress as it cools and why it reaches maximum density at 4°C (39°F) rather than at its freezing point. But the model has remained controversial because direct molecular-level evidence for the two structures has been elusive.

When the desert horned lizard (Phrynosoma platyrhinos) is thirsty, it cannot just lap up water or scoop it up like a bird because it lives in environments where water is extremely scarce. Typically, it’s found in damp soil or, even more rarely, in drops of rain.

Instead, its skin contains microscopic channels between overlapping scales that pull in moisture by capillary action. But how it gets that water from these channels into its mouth has remained a mystery until now.

Scientists have discovered how that happens, and it inspired them to design a water-harvesting system that borrows from how the reptiles do it.
