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!

Luckily I have a ThinkPad, I just run the following program and hold the fan vents against my face:

int main(void) {
  while (1);
}

Try to optimize this away, sucker:

echo "level full-speed" | sudo tee /proc/acpi/ibm/fan
