--- Michael J Fox, as to Jaynes, after his particular theories of boundaries never really took off. Too bad really, smart man. Knew a lot about boundaries. Like how all anyone ever can know about you is what you show them, intentionally or not. Smart man, knew a lot about boundaries

Hi, since I just moved instance an #introduction is in order.
I am a research software engineer #rse working on #OpenScience for #microscopy (aka #openmicroscopy).

I am also working on #PhysicsOfLife through the development of the #tyssue simulation library.

leaves have surfaces that have a degree of wetability, water will either stick to a surface or it will flow off depending on the ecological needs of the leaf. Nonwetable leaves have complex surfaces that modify the surface pressure of water so it forms droplets and flows off. The reasoning and mathematics of this is explained in this video:

My question: The complex surface looks fractal, is there a scaling law going on here?
