    100 is hot out and 0 is cold. That’s not crazy. 35 being hot out is pretty arbitrary for day to day use. But if your job is boiling water every day, it’s probably not the best.

      The freezing point of water seems a hell of a lot more relevant to what humans consider ‘cold’…which is why it’s the zero. The boiling point of water isn’t the zero in Celsius after all.

      Also ‘cold’ as a concept is often represented with symbols related to frozen water such as snow flakes and icicles.
