> Iwamoto and Scheschkewitz say pentasilacyclopentadienides could be ligands for catalysts and materials.

The review should have expanded on this at a practical level even mom and dad could understand—the standard “better life through chemistry” angle.

I'm guessing it's the latter, because you have to keep the mine-disabling mechanisms working and powered up through possible adverse weather and environmental conditions for long enough that the conflict has a fair chance of having ended.

If you wanted to design something fail safe, the best way would be to make the powered up state the danger state. So when the power fails, the device is inactive.

How does that work for a rat? Sounds interesting.

I don't know how it works for rats, but I assume it is like with dogs. If you have already a trained dog, you make the same exercises with the trained and the untrained dog, so the untrained dog can just watch what the trained dog does and imitate it.

That's not how you would typically train a working dog.

I imagine it depends on the work?

I am not an expert here, but am a bit familiar with how rescue dogs are trained and this is a method in use.

Another usage of the word "lost" is to indicate when the spacecraft has become dysfunctional. Although, that one is the verb form, not the adjective.

> Well managed people are much happier in my experienced

Emphasis on the well-managed. If the management actually helps the tram achieve their goals and doesn't stifle them, then great. Otherwise, you end up with bloat.

> Modularity would be great too.

Unfortunately, that wouldn't pad the car companies' margins. What's best for th consumer is generally worse for the company.

Cars are highly modular. Parts are shared across as many models as possible. Engine series are designed to last 10-15 years.

The car makers increase their margins by keeping their cars modular.

You are talking about modularity of design, not aftermarket repairability.

Me neither.
