We learnt a lot since 9/11 about how radicalization works. It's not happening mainly through personal trauma, but through indoctrination, usually through schools and universities.
But what would she find one? Go to the second result on Google? Most people would never be able to find a real hitman since it would require taking very obvious risks to find a real hitman - and would just give up.
Notion. It's the first organization tool that can effectively tie Todo lists, project and time planning, and knowledge management. It's the first Todo system that stuck for me since it allows you to work with higher level goals, scheduling and hierarchy.

Construction costs generally rise with the height of the building, both due to higher structural demands and because of additional functional (usually also legal) demands - like two elevators and two fire escape stairways for buildings higher than 8-10 stories. Maintenance is also more expensive for higher buildings. Higher buildings also demand larger distances between them to allow light and ventilation. Because of that - except for places with unusually high density like Hong Kong and parts of Manhattan - the sweet spot for high density, construction costs and quality of life might lie in the 5-7 stories range (typical for Paris and Barcelona). Regarding Hong Kong housing situation - in spite of the high level of economic freedom in other areas, the housing market is in a large part state controlled, with waiting lists for buying an apartment.
