This is the most HN thing ever. Someone works to create an ultimately useless tool because no matter what you find the answer to be, the solution is the same:
-- Attenuate loud noises --
Which is exactly what they ended up doing

> I added proper acoustic panels (the IKEA ones for offices to create meeting areas work surprisingly well)
> I added extra insulation around the bedroom door and the window (silicone, rubber, ...)
