Also, for those interested to know more, I recommend looking up Geoffrey B. West's stuff on complexity. It mentions the same things as this article and puts them in a wider context:
Whales consume prodigious amounts of energy, and that is largely trapped within its body mass. I suspect that thermal management is actually a fair part of their design challenge. Even humans in fairly cool water can have difficulty keeping sufficiently cool, and experienced long-distance open-water swimmers have died of heat exhaustion in warm water (a case occurred in the Middle-East a few years back).
PS: love Geoffrey West (and the rest of the Santa Fe Institute crowd).
Anti-gravity support system too.
It... sort of worked. It cooled the laptop. Performance was discernibly better.
Until one day water (melted snow) got in and laptop stopped working. Totally serious, this happened.
The largest dinosaur, which I know is a subject of discussion, is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argentinosaurus 30 metres, 80-100 tonnes and blue whale https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argentinosaurus 30 metres, 180 tonnes
If a 100 tonnes creature can live on land, my gut tells me a 180 tonnes creature could too. where's the point of no return? There's all sorts of cooling mechanisms that could be dreamt up, just as we see strange heating mechanisms (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stegosaurus#Plates).
