This article instantly brought back memories of my childhood when my fingers would wrinkle after being in water too long. I used to think it was caused by the skin swelling from water, but it turns out it's actually due to blood vessels contracting—what a surprise! Even more amazing, this research not only answers a childhood question but can also be applied in forensic science, which I never expected! Do we still retain curiosity about the world around us? Have I overlooked the huge potential hidden in small details? Curiosity is truly important， it always leads us to discover unexpected worlds.

If I don't, then it's mighty strange that I've been binging Groucho Marx interviewing random people from the audience in the 1950s show You Bet Your Life for the past few hours, and his fascinating interviews with Dick Cavette and William Buckley Jr.

Anyway yeah that's literally the main reason any of us are on HN. Besides procrastinating.

Yup, procrastinating and curiosity. That's why I'm here.

It reminded me of how brains form through wrinkling folds [^0], space filling curves[^1], and the emergence of form through origami[^2].
