The sunglasses can obviously stay on. For the heat, opt for a sun hoodie which is fit for purpose

Heavily cropped hoody
Heat pipes and fans.
Does make a hell of a mess getting the thermal paste of my back and chest.
It’s like if Mr Motivator had a baby with a cargo net.
Moved to New Zealand.
Easy: I live in the southern hemisphere. Excited that it's winter today, just got through our first major storm of the season
Best Hemisphere.
Luckily I have a ThinkPad, I just run the following program and hold the fan vents against my face:
int main(void) {
while (1);
}
gcc -O3:
Not on my watch!
Me when I own an 8th gen i7 t580 and bake my skin off.

I'd wear one of these
Polyester?! Do you prefer sweating - instead of letting your skin breath?
Anti slip ring for stability while activities
Ooh fancy
Stay indoors, and don’t forget to loudly exclaim “I’m in!” every few minutes
HaCk ThE pLaNeT!
Pleeeease! God dammit… hate this hacker crap.
Ah ah ah, didn’t say the magic word! Ah ah ah, didn’t say the magic word! Ah ah ah, didn’t say the magic word!
sudo stop hacker-bullshit
username is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported to the motherfucker in charge.
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
If working at home, naked with just socks is allowed.
You know you can wear shorts
whenever you want while programming right?
I hack at night, when it's cooler. You can't see the digital rain otherwise.
Beach hoodie. They're light and block UV
Furry equipment FTW

NightHawk has a video on how to make cooling packs that keep their temperature around 18ºC (64ºF) for something like 2 hours. He gives the ingredients around the 6 minute mark. It's a mixture of Sodium Sulfate with common table salt:
- 5 cups water (1.2 liters)
- 1 cup sodium sulfate (240ml)
- 1/4 cup salt (60ml)
- 4 tablespoons of xanthan gum (20ml) - this is a thickening agent so that the thing becomes gelatin-like, which makes it easier to work with
- Mix in heated water for some minutes. The mixture should not fully dissolve, there should be some of it visible. If the sulfate fully dissolves, add more. If there seems to be too much of the mixture, add bits of water.
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.
Unzip the hoodie
