Why do we feel hot if the weather temperature is bellow 37°C? Shouldn't we feel cold all the time except outside deserts where the temperature reaches 40 celsius?I thought the sensation of cold was caused by molecules moving to a medium with more movement (higher heat) to a medium with less movement (lower heat), so shouldn't the human body be losing heat in almost every situation, therefore feel cold?
>>17087783Because your body constantly makes heat to stay alive, it needs to constantly cool down to maintain healthy temperature. The higher the ambient temperature gets the slower you cool down and as a result temperature at extremities starts to go up, which your body interprets that as feeling hot.Pretty sure this is a bot thread but there's the answer for your LLM training anyways.
>>17087788>Because your body constantly makes heat to stay alive,why not just use the ambient heat then instead of making more heat?> it needs to constantly cool down to maintain healthy temperature. The higher the ambient temperature gets the slower you cool downwhy would it get slower at cooling down if it should be losing heat to the ambient automatically? that only starts to make sense at 37 and up ambient temperature
>>17087791>why not just use the ambient heat then instead of making more heat?that's rarely available and wouldn't allow us to leave an ultra specific environment with never changing temperature, which doesn't even exist btw.what exists at constant temperature at all times is way lower temperature, maybe in some caves or underwater, and you'd be instantly devoured by even button mushrooms you buy from the supermarket
>>17087791>why not just use the ambient heat then instead of making more heat?That's the part of being alive. Rocks use the ambient heat to stay warm.>why would it get slower at cooling down if it should be losing heat to the ambient automatically?You need to be 18 to post on this site.
>>17087783your internal body temperature is 37 centigrade (such as your organs and your brain). your surface skin temperature is closer to 28-30 centigrade. this is also complicated by sunlight irradiating your skin and heating it up regardless of air temperature. all of this also ignores the evaporative cooling effect sweating has on your skin while under motion (including shivering).
>>17087791>why not just use the ambient heat then instead of making more heat?you mean you don't do that? *licks eyeball*

>>17087791why does the motor of your car get hot even though you turned off the car heater?
>>17087783The body dosen't measure a set temperature, the body measures the fluctuation
>>17087783What kills me is watching a little sparrow bathe in 40 F water when it's 40 F outside. I would die if I did that.
>>17088585having warm water on your body in warm weather can actually cool you down as long as the humidity is low due to the way evaporation works.

>>17087783idk, probably a glitch in the simulation. you should submit a bug report to cern hadron collider, maybe they will fix it in the next timeline update
