  That must be why the software industry isn’t developed there, there’s nothing to cool down your brains from all the thinking. Japanese houses tend to have not good enough wall-mounted AC but the commercial buildings have it on freezing.

    What makes you say that the software industry isn't developed in Europe?

      Lack of ways for startups to grow outside selling to Americans (Booking, Skype, etc) and low quality of video games outside German farming simulators and British funny animal platformers.

  Fair. I think it just comes down to preference. Not sure if you can say one is better than the other. I had always just assumed everywhere had AC. Oddly enough, seemed like lots of buildings had it while the houses/apartments didn't. Maybe due to the body heat of so many ppl, it becomes necessary.
