  Thanks for watching! Here&apos;s a continually updating list of more information, mistakes, &amp; resources to learn more.<br><br>1. As many have (correctly) pointed out, a real circuit would actually not settle instantaneously as claimed in the video (at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fH80JF2mDM&amp;t=2200">36:40</a>), as it takes time for information to travel. What I really meant to convey (and how I should&apos;ve actually worded it) is that typically in a &quot;lumped-element&quot; styled analysis of circuits like this, the <b>modeling assumption</b> used is that everything is small enough for the messages to be passed &quot;instantaneously&quot;, instead of modeling it in the &quot;contrived&quot; sort of way I did throughout the video for a fun animation. For more info on the instantaneous modeling assumption which is more typical, see for example the first paragraph in this writeup from an EE course at CMU: <a href="https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~tdear/ee/rc_rl.pdf">https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~tdear/ee/rc_rl.pdf</a>. But anyways, thanks for bringing this to my attention I should&apos;ve worded it differently!<br>2. Check out this fascinating article by Jack Copeland (who graciously let me feature his images in the video) for more info &amp; history on Tutte: <a href="https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00283-024-10386-7">https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00283-024-10386-7</a> <br>3. Special thanks to Iain Stratchan for Trinity College 1939 image, and for sharing lots of valuable historical anecdotes!<br>4. Thanks to Flaming June for the &quot;Unsung Hero&quot; song at the end! <a href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1Y8l8WDlrbz3ymcCz50r3w">https://open.spotify.com/artist/1Y8l8WDlrbz3ymcCz50r3w</a><br><br>&lt;MORE TBD&gt;

  if that&apos;s a simple squared rectangle I do NOT want to meet a complicated one!

  You know a math video is good when the premise seems contrived at the start, but almost trivial at the end

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fH80JF2mDM&amp;t=2210">36:50</a> pretty sure that an electrical network would in fact do that bouncing, just on a timescale too short to notice.

  The production quality of this video is insane! &nbsp;All the zooms into the Squared Rectangles like at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fH80JF2mDM&amp;t=807">13:27</a> remind me of fractal zooms. <br> <br>Also I feel like the connections to electric current at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fH80JF2mDM&amp;t=515">8:35</a> is the highlight of the video - the realization that squared squares and graphs of wires are connected!

  Wow! The quality of the graphics is truly incredible, I’m amazed. I knew a little bit about squared squares before this, but I had NO idea how deep the rabbit hole went. Your presentation style is so good, I can’t wait to see more!!!

  Im sorry you missed the 3b1b competition deadline, but I&apos;m also glad you kept working on it. This turned out fantastic, and I was exposed to multiple aspects of math that were kind of alien to me before the video. I was also reminded, yet again, how systems that look completely different at first are usually just like siblings that dont look alike and lie to you about it until you look closer and see they&apos;re related. I loved the references and silly jokes, and I certainly found the video delicious (<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fH80JF2mDM&amp;t=1947">32:27</a> reference)😍
