“… I often find myself wondering how many members have ever been involved in community-run projects in the past.” Molly White believes that many web3 projects struggle or fail because their members don’t seem to have any experience with running community-driven projects. As a longtime Wikipedia editor, White knows the struggles that community-driven project members face, among which is an inevitable division among the community over certain decisions and harassment within the community itself.

‘Ghostly’ neutrinos provide new path to study protons
In groundbreaking research, an international collaboration of scientists from the University of Rochester have used a beam of neutrinos to measure the size and shape of the protons that make up the nuclei of atoms. This feat, once thought impossible, provides scientists with a new way of looking at the small components of an atom’s nucleus and opens up a wealth of new information about the structure of an atom’s nucleus and the dynamics of the forces that affect neutrino interactions. The researchers solved the challenge of harnessing neutrinos in large numbers by using a neutrino detector containing a target of both hydrogen and carbon atoms, and over nine years of data collection at Fermilab’s accelerator.
