Some people can't get good sleep in the US mostly because of non-stop noise/parties at night. Dogs barking, sirens, people fighting, etc. In Germany you can call police on your neighbour if they are louder than a ceiling fan. No such laws in the US.

Re:Ask HN: Is fake GitHub profile data a thing?
on Tuesday June 07, 2022 @05:27AM (#31651773)
Because many recruiters use automated tools to filter candidates. These tools use your github profile statistics to see how "active" you have been, regardless of the content of your projects. You would think it makes sense to build actual projects, but who has time on projects when they are working 8am to 6pm plus 2 hour commute every day? This is why people fake their github profiles to pass recruiters.

WWII had a massive impact on advancing science. Funding and fear of extinction is a good combo to advance science.
