You mean to tell me that there are people out there whose job it is to design lunatics?
That’s fucking awesome. Like a real-life comic book author.

You just have to ignore the existence of electron flow. Conventional current flow is all that matters, and the only people who use electron flow are those who design integrated circuits and lunatics

Let’s eat grandma
Depends on what she tastes like.
It’s also useful to think of the “ground” plane as a sort of well of potential charger carriers that the conventional current model overlooks. Aside from simultaneously visualising what’s happening inside simple ICs like BJTs / MOSFETs and the circuit diagrams I’ve found it a useful way for checking for common mode noise in circuit and PCB design.
I guess this makes me a lunatic? Don’t know until we test it;
Someone give me an asylum makerspace to takeover!

I…think I understand ground loops (audio) now.
Are you implying there there are IC designers who aren’t lunatics?
You just have to ignore the existence of electron flow.
And ignore magnetic fields completely?
In a lot of cases, yes. 99% of the time when designing electronics / electrical circuits you can safle ignore them.
I was joking. But it does matter more with analog circuits.
Also chemists doing electrochemistry where the direction of electron flow is very important. You also have to deal with anode and cathode being flipped from how you expect since you are putting current in instead of taking current out.

They get lumped in with the lunatics

You mean the writers fpr “IFL Science”?
Yeah, we don’t want them. They’re idiots
