> Compared to the USA? Lol, you have no clue. The standard for a software engineer in SV is to take drugs to work 12 hours a day 6 days a week

Completely false, the standard is more like 35 hour work weeks with "work from home" one day a week. Judging from the fact that you know how people work in Berlin I'm going to guess you have no personal experience with SV work culture and have only read some horror stories that are not at all representative of what work is like for the average software engineer in SV.
