Comment on People who live in hot climates, how do you deal with the heat?

I live at the equator and it’s always ~28 degrees where I live. You can get almost any temperature at the equator that really isn’t a test of heat. Here in Colombia if you go to the down the mountains towards the coast or jungle it gets hotter. There the houses are built with lots of natural wind tunnel effects to keep them passively cool. When you’re outside in the heat you just get used to it. When I was in Iraq it took us a few weeks to really get used to it but even at 50 degrees you eventually build a tolerance.
