Welcome to c/science_memes @ Mander.xyz!
A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
- Don't throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
- Keep it rooted (on topic).
- No spam.
- Infographics welcome, get schooled.
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

Elections merely facilitate the transfer the power, like (the non-leading edges of?) a drive shaft or cogs.
Even with DC you need a loop (well, a difference).
Carbon fuel one-use mentality where you burn your supply (chemically stored energy) doesn't apply, tho non-rechargeable batteries make it seem so.
It’s even crazier than that. It’s not even the electrons at the “leading edge” it’s the EM field they create even separate the of the wires that actually contain the electrons.

And the follow-up with a physical experiment after the first video started a huge drama.

God I hate that video, he explains everything so badly to the point of completely misinforming viewers. He's talking about a special situation of AC current, but uses DC in the thought experiment. He makes it seem as if the field travels to the load in a direct path and the wires don't matter. No, the EM field is completely based on the wire.
