“Of course, there are lots of industries whose product engineers would love to translate this finding into intentional engineering approaches to create metals that automatically heal themselves in our structural applications,” lead-author Brad Boyce, a materials scientist at Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque, New Mexico, told Live Science. “Self-healing metals could be useful in a wide range of applications from airplane wings to automotive suspensions.”

    Why wouldn’t I blame the consumer when they areyelling at me about cost at my job all the time? I have flat out told clients that they are making the design worse and it will need to be replaced early over trivial amounts of money and they said they didn’t care.

    So fuck you consumer. Enjoy your plastic shit which includes your Steve Jobs glowing rectangle

      So based on a subset of people who are entitled you are tarring everybody in existence with the same brush. Affordability, cost of living and wages are a whole other fucking issue related to CEO greed. Which is out of the scope of the discussion. The fact you are so bitter about this means it’s probably time to find a new job lmao
