Reading up on sleeping in rooms that are 100 degrees plus since of the 4 guest/hotel rooms I walked into in California, 2 of them were over 100+ on walk in. Yeah, they cool down once you open the window & turn on the woefully underrated A/C, but that was ~2AM.

(W/o acclimation?) sleep is disturbed at over 72.
At 96+ your sleeping with a environmental fever.
At 106 you got a medical emergency

Anyhow, f*k that s*t I don't care if CA is the home of Silicon Valley and Hollywood, I'm staying away.

Self-replies

is going to make me change how I cuss in tweets. d`*`mn it.

LA Times says that there is no legal upper limit on how hot the rooms can get - latimes.com/opinion/story/2022

California Energy Commission (who doesn't want the electric grid to fall over & doesn't care if you sleep or not) says rooms should be 78 degrees when you're there and 85 when you are not.

Anyhow, that was the only number I could get on "well, as a society, what did Californians decide is customary & acceptable"

Another factoid was that after the sun goes down, CA buildings stay 15-20 degrees hotter than the surroundings for hours even with air conditioners on, so it would be noticeably smarter to sleep outside.
