But I also believe that people bitching and saying no loud noises before 10am are being just as selfish as the people who get up and do yardwork at 6am. If someone has a problem or some extraordinary reasons for wanting it to stay quiet later, they can talk to each other and try to find a compromise.

And out of 7 days, if you are only being inconvenienced for a couple hours maybe that's something you should be more tolerant of.

Cool. No loud parties after 9pm then? Or is inconveniencing my sleep okay because you do it at night?

I've got one day a week I can do yard work, and only until 9am until it hits over 90° out. Sorry, buddy. But you might have to deal with some noise. Wish we could all live in perfect harmony. But until then you have to deal with some shit you don't like and I have to deal with some shit I don't like and we'll do our best to not inconvenience each other too bad.

You can't do the yard work at 6pm instead? If your neighbors are having loud parties every week then yes you should talk to them and say it's affecting your sleep, and if they don't listen report them. My neighbors came over and said they would be playing music past 10pm and if that would be okay. Not being noisy when your neighbors might be asleep (even if it's a big inconvenience) is just being considerate. If your neighbors are being noisy and you have no recourse then that's a obviously different.

Also, get a sun hat and a handheld fan, take breaks, unless it's a literal heatwave then you can manage (source: have done yard work at noon during a heat wave)
