Y’all mad at it being AI, but I think you might have missed out on a very fun thermodynamics problem… How cold does it need to be outside to keep the beer at a chilled drinking temperature, but also how thick does the insulating layer need to be between them and the beer to keep them comfortable, without going hypothermic? I’ve been out of the physics game for a while so I cheated and asked AI.

- “Chilled beer” target: 4 °C 
- Skin temperature (inner surface facing the beer): ≈33 °)

- Beer thermal conductivity ≈ 0.6 W/(m·K)

- Heat-loss budget (steady-state) for comfort at rest ≈ 80 W per m²

- Required foam liner ≈ 9.4 mm (0.37 in)

Kind of bulky for an average outing but given a certain situation or event!

 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

AI is a really dumb content generator but can be an interesting fun fact approximater!

This needs more attention!

This is the dumbest. Like even AI would say this is dumb. I’d ask it but then I would be complicit in global resource abuse! Nope… just going to human type this is the dumbest.

I love a good quantum tunneling meme… Reduced probability, but not reduced energy!

Just checking my recollection. G.I. Joe had the hovercraft and Cobra had the hydrofoil right? Did anyone ever make a stadium sized hydrofoil?

When’s the last time you saw an engineer doing tensor calculus? And that said, whomever said Einstein wasn’t good at math has also never done tensor calculus.

That seems reasonable. I think I’ll throw in my social security number and DNA sample for good measure… just in case they need it.
