Description:
Chinese automaker BYD has launched an affordable electric vehicle called the Seagull that sells for around $12,000 in China and threatens the US auto industry. The Seagull is well-built, drives well, and has craftsmanship rivaling more expensive US EVs, though tariffs currently keep it out of the US market. BYD uses its battery expertise and vertical integration to manufacture the Seagull efficiently and keep costs low, allowing a longer range on smaller batteries. US automakers must relearn design and engineering practices and ditch excess costs to compete, like with simpler components and reducing weight.

Concerns over China's advancements in electronics have been heightened during the pandemic due to chip shortages, emphasizing the economic importance of these devices. This has sparked competition among countries and led to significant investments in the semiconductor industry. The US has imposed export controls on China to prevent them from accessing advanced chip technology, leading to tension between the two countries. The US is also working to revive its own tech manufacturing and aims to produce 20% of the world's most advanced logic semiconductors by 2030.")

It's an electromagnet, the kind that generates a magnetic field when electrical current flows through it. The last time the scientists who operate it switched it on, it blew open the heavy doors designed to keep it contained. Already, it has created one of the most intense magnetic fields ever generated on Earth. And it keeps getting more powerful.")
