[what if]第132期：平均温度
原作：http://what-if.xkcd.com/132 编译：猪的米 What if 系列：https://songshuhui.net/archives/tag/what-if 提问： 我在一个温泉浴场看到过一个标志牌，上面写着“小心：水温高于平均”，而那里的水温大约在39度左右。虽然我知道工作人员其实想表示的是“比一般游泳池水温更高”，但是我不禁想：地球表面所有水的平均温度是多少？比39度高还是低？ —— Graham Ward 回答： 你可能小看这块牌子的制作者了。不管他是不是有意为之，这样的语句有着更深刻的含义。 （而且我的头头警告我说如果我再弄出这种冗长的警示牌来的话，他就要炒了我。然后他就……（欲知更多，请看下一块牌子）） 字面上这块牌子说得没错，39度的水比地球上大多数你能找到的水都要热。在更深… Read more
