I didn’t see this addressed in the article, but, isn’t this just Brownian Motion on a larger level?

Bill Gates paid about $30 million for the 36 pages in 1994. Assuming $4 million a page now, a random drawing could $250k to $1 million.

I’m sure there is a government grant out there for the taking to figure that out.

Bubbles form when the dissolved gas, carbon dioxide in this example, is super saturated. The gas comes out of solution, forming bubbles, more easily at surface defects and asperities. The bubbles form less easily on smooth surfaces, and even less easily in the bulk liquid, away from any surface. The surface defects typically are always in the same place, so bubbles will preferentially form there, which is what you see.
