This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

What’s your source for this? It routinely gets over 100 here and buildings aren’t 80 degrees inside.
They're full of it, that's it. Maybe in their house which lacks sufficient insulation. Heat pumps (i.e. air conditioning) are/is extremely efficient at moving heat around, there's not really a practical limit on it, particularly if you go geothermal.
~~We're talking celsius, I hope for your sake it doesn't routinely get to 100 C where you are. :)~~
Edit: The user actually said 20 F, I got confused by the mix of units. "50c to 35c is 27 degrees" didn't make sense to me, but I figured I'd let it slide. No idea what's going on here. :)
