Subjunctive posted:Your body has to use more energy to maintain body temperature when it's cold, but I can't imagine that it makes much of a difference. About 50% of the basal metabolic rate goes towards maintaining homeostasis, exercise really only accounts for 10% comparatively. I can understand the logical steps it takes to go from that to a working product but making someone cold when they work out will only improve their workout in as much as they can go longer without getting exhausted.

Certainly not by draping a cold pack over your shoulders. There's been some research into developing "brown fat" through exposure to cold, but again, we'd be talking about way more cold than this thing will put out.

Cockmaster posted:Certainly not by draping a cold pack over your shoulders. Here's a longer article on it: http://m.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2015/01/does-global-warming-make-me-look-fat/383509/ tl;dr is we do need more calories to survive in the cold - hell, a food calorie is literally the amount of energy needed to raise a kilo of water by one degree Celsius, so that's pretty safe bet. Scientific folks are currently looking into it as an overall "living in an unheated house" thing, while salesman are already lining up to sell you ice vests and assuming it'll be the same thing even while at least one study says ice vests just cool your skin temperature, not your core temperature. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2231399/

Me, age 11, on a KickStarter many years ago... I filmed the sales pitch for my Wizard Dueling card game in front of a green screen. Now what kind of backdrop would be thematically appropriate here? *uses a picture of a sewer* Teach your kids about fiscal responsibility by buying the videogame we're developing in MS Paint.

A bit late to the party, but what do you get if you find the last number of the Fibonacci sequence and then add it to the preceding one? That supercalculatorcomputer-kickstarter is either an elaborate troll, or someone who partially slept through high school math. Pi and other irrational numbers are already used in computing, particularly in encryption. If he wants to find the "last digit of Pi" he has to start at the about 13 trillion digits that people with real supercomputers have already found. Of course, something that would have been just as groundbreaking as finding the last digit, and only slightly less improbable, would be to find a repeating sequence that could prove that Pi could be written as a fraction, but even if the decimals at 14 trillion started going ...3141592653... he would need another 14 trillion digits to really prove it.

Wouldn't that still not prove it? Knowing that a number is 0.12341234[and an unknown series of further digits] doesn't prove that it's 1234/9999.
