:-/ 95 degrees what? They don't use Fahrenheit in Belgium, you know (nor does most of the rest of the world, for that matter).

For anyone wondering, 95F is exactly 35 degrees Celsius.

Also, it would probably have been more relevant to mention the equivalent Belgian and EU institutes instead of the OSHA ... seriously, I don't expect for a second that the regulations would be the same. Roughly, maybe, but it just doesn't make sense to mention the OSHA at all if the servers aren't in the USA!




As someone who spent his first pair of decades in the USA, it's easy to forget that most Americans view the whole world as if it were the USA. It's a habit that seems normal in that environment.

They also frequently say "the world" when they mean "the whole country".
