While you (and siblings) are all correct, I don't get the down voting of the poor guy trying to make a joke while being considerate-ish and hoping that you guys were actually warmer than you were.
That said, I've been out in the hammock in 0F here, including snow and wind chill on top and been warm (oh wait, I'll be down voted too). It's all about insulation, which actually helps in both warm and cold weather. You can see that in Spain for example, where they have very warm weather (like Texas) in summer. It's a fallacy to believe though that there's no insulation used and that there's no heating in Spain.

- falcrist 6y agoThe more time I spend on Hacker News, the more it just seems like Reddit to me. All the worst impulses are still here. The dog-piling, the comments that were made without opening the article, the low-effort jokes. At least there's no pun threads.
- Sohcahtoa82 6y agoI find that jokes can work out fine on HN. The catch is that it can't be a low-effort joke. People on reddit run jokes into the ground so far that they need to bring a passport to be prepared for their arrival in China.
