That's not how developer productivity works. US has more FAANGs than Germany because they have a lot more money, and because the ones with the money (investors and VCs) are a lot more likely to invest it in starting SW companies than i

What are your measured CPU temps though? "Fans start spining under sustained load" is a pretty useless metric as that's pretty normal buhavilor unless you had a fanless M1. I have a Lenovo with a 5800U and temps are just fine
