> this is exactly the white savior crap that much of the world hates from the US

I'm the kind of person that hates this kind of crap from the US, like, interfering with foreign governments to increase their freedom is the kind of doublespeak I'm not too thrilled about.

But this does seem a bit different. Here people from Taiwan are proposed to be given an evacuation route. Nobody said anything about invading and taking the whole population by force. An alternative proposal I saw mentioned is to keep Taiwan out of China's hands which seems way more invasive (and risky, like, world war type risky) by comparison.

I do agree that the specific "dump them in one of our deserts" idea would not be what first comes to my mind, but ignoring the specifics for now, I'm not sure that this is how GP meant it. (And leaving completely in the middle whether this is feasible or a good idea for all the other reasons. I'm just commenting on the "provide option to get away" -> "don't do savior crap" part.)
He says near the end of the video that a Part 2 video is forthcoming with more exploration of:

- Different sized loops

- Wires closer together / farther apart

- Wires on the ground instead of in air

- Current on both sides of switch

- Wires in two big spread-out loops

- Different strength resistors
Despite getting obliterated, the upper strata of Confederate society are probably still remembered as being elite.

That seems like a lot. Any keyboard experts feel like explaining why a good keyboard is heavier than a laptop?
They temporarily lost 4 reactors / 6 GW.

"It said the French utility could need to spend about 2 billion-3 billion euros ($2.3 billion-$3.4 billion) in 2022 to buy back some of its power to cover outages at the nuclear reactors."

More money after bad money. The cost of solar 1GW farm with storage is well under $2B. The power transmission cable from Alger to France would still leave it under $2B/1GW. Instead France is doubling down on nuclear.
If China is such a paradise for the children of the Chinese elite, why do they overwhelmingly go to US universities? Why bother ever leaving China at all?
