Everything is a resistor. It’s just a question of voltage.
Superconductors
Super bad resistor you mean.
High frequency signals be like: conductors? Where we are going we don’t need conductors!
What’s the center of this copper wire even for, anyway? I’m going around the edges.
True that. I was amazed how many hundreds of amps I could dump into an aluminum foil antenna at high frequency.
Just aluminum foil around PVC is practically as good as solid aluminum pipe.
tcp vs udp
Can confirm. Built a mini Van de Graaff as a kid.
I can hear this meme.
If electricity is a highway, current is the number of cars at any given time, voltage is how fast they are going, and high voltage are the driving sequences from The Transporter / Fast & Furious movies.

Silicon isn’t a conductor, it’s a semiconductor. Also conductivity is dependent on temperature, hot stuff usually conducts easier, though some things conduct easier when they are colder. Even at the low voltage it’s more complicated than “Conductors” and “Insulators” we learn in those ultra basic electronics guides online (or in school if you’re lucky).
Hot stuff always conducts. As in plasma.
Except superconductors often conduct better when they are cold (unfortunately, would be nice if a room temperature one was found but probably isn’t going to happen).
In HV anyo…thing can be a wire
Why is high voltage that hard to read?
zalgo used to represent the demonization of high voltage
Because it follows every path at the same time
it’s also a reference to an existing meme
Thank you for sharing this. I was enthralled from start to finish.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

More like where is the ground
The path to neutrality by any means nessasary!
Thank you for this powerful visual. I’ve always had trouble understanding electrical concepts, but this is beginning to open my eyes now.
You’ll have that when your voltage overcomes the resistance of the air
Sometimes it happens even below the arc breakdown voltage via air… Air molecules are slightly less dense along the surface of a smooth flat surface due to molecular ‘bounce’, so electrons creep along the lower density of a surface.
Hence, creepage on a PCB.
High voltage be like: “Fuck you. I’m gonna make my own wire, with blackjack and hookers (and ionization)!”
Never mind carbonizing the path it took along the PCB so future breakdown happen at much lower voltages 😑

😉 on purpose, in fact
High frequency signals be like: wires? Where we are going we don’t need wires!
