Hi everyone! I suspect most of us here are headed for hotter days with summer starting shortly in the northern hemisphere. With climate change in full swing and El Niño expected to happen this year, I suspect it will be a very hot one. Now I love coding and programming, obviously, but the obligatory hoody and sunglasses - which we all weat while coding, of course - can make for an uncomfortable coding experience in the heat. How do you all cope? Do you combine the obligatory hoody with shorts, or maybe airconditioning? All tips are welcome!
Skirt and programming socks. The skirt provides optimal airflow and the socks can be adjusted using a PID algorithm to achieve the desired thermal equilibrium.
Good call. I’ll flash arch to a USB stick while I’m at it

Heat pipes and fans.
Does make a hell of a mess getting the thermal paste of my back and chest.
Luckily I have a ThinkPad, I just run the following program and hold the fan vents against my face:
int main(void) { while (1); }Beach hoodie. They’re light and block UV

Polyester?! Do you prefer sweating - instead of letting your skin breath?
It wicks well for me.
Weather?
Oh! You mean outside.
Yeah, we don’t do that here.
Unzip the hoodie

Well, I do wear a lot of hoodies…. But that’s more because I live in the PNW than the fact that I’m a programmer.
I also have the sleeves pushed up to my elbows most of the time. Only wear sunglasses when I’m driving and the sun is in my face.
sleeveless hoodie. like John Schneider. peak performance.
We suffer for our fashion and our art.
Work from home and wear shorts only and drink tons of water.
Hmm, sounds like it’s time for the programming djellabah !
