      Glue, sealants and adhesives in general are a massive part of the worldwide chemical industry and used in bulk by practically every single manufacturing process… it’s kind of wild how much of modern technology is basically dependent on “haha funny organic chemical be stickyyyyy”

    🤦‍♂️ It’s not a “super glue”. It’s a “super” glue.

    This doesn’t appear to compete with cyanoacrylate (yet); they created a hot-melt stick and compared it against a commercially available hot-melt stick .

        Oh. So am I! I didn’t mean to sound dismissive of it. I was just frustrated by the articles title because it is a different application (both method and use-case) than “super glue”.
