San Francisco neighbours complain of noise as IITian founder works late night for Indian customers
An Indian entrepreneur currently living in San Francisco has revealed that his downstairs neighbours have complained about the noise he makes because he works late into the night. Prateek Sachan, the founder of AI startup Bolna, said that he has been living in an Airbnb in San Francisco for the last few months.
Sachan said that because his team and his customers are based in India, he often works till 5 or 6 am in the morning, San Francisco time.
Airbnb host defends Indian founder
“Been living in SF past months – sleeping at 5/6 AM because of customers & team in India,” wrote Sachan, who holds a BTech degree from IIT Delhi.
The Indian entrepreneur, whose startup Bolna is backed by Y Combinator, said that working Indian hours seems to be inconveniencing his downstairs neighbours. However, his Airbnb host has stood by him and defended his odd working hours.
“Neighbors downstairs kept complaining about it until they learned we work Indian hours. And were so confused on what they can do now. Shoutout to our amazing Airbnb host who defended us!” Prateek Sachan wrote, sharing a picture of his host’s messages.

In the messages, the Airbnb host supported Sachan and blamed the neighbours for complaining.
The host said that Sachan has been an exemplary guest and that they have never had noise issues before this.
“Please let me know if the guest below causes any more trouble for you guys,” the host told Sachan in one message. “I am sorry they are difficult. You have both been outstanding guests so l don’t want your eta to be marred.”

In another message, the host put the blame squarely on the downstairs neighbours.
“I appreciate that but you need to be able to work as well. The downstairs guest has an inflated sense of their position and I’ve been very clear with AirBnB Support that she is out of line,” the message from the Airbnb host read.
“I do not want you guys to be inconvenienced or feel uncomfortable. We’ve never had a problem with noise and we’ve hosted several guests from South Asia,” the host added.
When the San Francisco 49ers traded for Skyy Moore, it looked like a desperate attempt to save an injured wide receiver room.
Sure, Moore was a former second-round pick and a Super Bowl winner, but his performance with Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs said that he was unlikely to produce in the NFL. While he has not made an impact as a wide receiver, the trade has already been a smashing success for the 49ers.
The San Francisco 49ers have found a return threat in Skyy Moore
That is because Moore has become an impactful return option. In the past three weeks, Moore has had two returns to start the 49ers’ offensive scoring. He had a kick return that set the 49ers up with an easy touchdown against the Arizona Cardinals, and in Week 13, it was his punt return against the Cleveland Browns that helped give the 49ers a 7-0 lead.
Moore was tripped up right before the end zone on both occasions, and if he did actually score, he would likely be getting All-Pro consideration as a return option. Moore is sixth in the NFL in return yards when combining punt and kick returns. He is fifth in return yard average, as Myles Price has more yards, but also has 28 more return chances.
Only Chimere Dike, KaVontae Turpin, Charle Jones, and Greg Dortch have been more productive as return options this season, and Turpin does not even return punts; almost all of his production is on kickoff returns. Of them. Dike has two touchdowns, and Jones has one. Dorctch and Turpin are tied with Moore with zero.
If Moore did have two, it would be easy to make the case that he is right behind Dike as the best returner in the NFL. However, even while getting tripped up, he is clearly one of the five best return men in the NFL.
The 49ers rank seventh in the NFL in average starting field position, and they are not a team that is living off of field-flipping turnovers. They are getting an impact from Skyy Moore. That is not bad when the cost was just moving from round six down to round seven in the draft.
Moore is a free agent this year, but given the fit, the production, and the lack of receiving ability, the 49ers should be able to extend him on a reasonable deal. Moore is only 25 years old. Even the 49ers may be surprised by how well the bet was paying off, but this has to be noted as a good trade by San Francisco.
