It turns out that some sides of magnets will not stick together. We have forgotten this fact and rediscovered it multiple times in the last thirty minutes, and this scientific discovery is not at all appreciated.
Admittedly, I had a similar reaction to Biot-Savert’s law back in E&M. I did manage to not throw things at the time.
To be fair, “I don’t wanna talk to a scientist, y’all motherfuckers lying and getting me pissed” is an entirely reasonable reaction to trying to set up a surface integral.
