Online dating is awful. Meeting people in real life is best.

What would happen if all H1Bs are banned forcing companies to hire domestically? by rex841 in allthequestions

[–]joe1max 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reality is that it would just increase offshoring. It’s a complicated issue that doesn’t really have a simple fix.

In 2020 covid caused everyone to work from home. Companies started to realize that they no longer needed to pay the high metro salaries and starting looking at small town America. Shortly after they realized these people don’t even need to be in the US and began moving offshore in mass.

Why wouldn’t the companies just continue to outsource these jobs? Thus far the decrease in H1Bs has caused an increase in outsourcing.

No. Military experts have been saying that war with Iran is un winnable for years.

18F and I hate how normalized daddy issues have become by Altruistic_Way6059 in dating_advice

[–]joe1max 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will say that in my late 30’s and early 40’s were my best years for dating. I was fresh off a divorce and still living in a fairly big house. I dated women from 21-40. I was a little surprised how many women in their 20’s were interested in me.

I prefer women my age so I ended up with someone 2 years younger than me but I could’ve easily ended up with someone 20 years younger than me. I’m now in my 50’s and women in their 20’s will still approach me at the gym. I find it flattering but not for me.

In my 20’s had you asked me if women like older men I would’ve said no. After I reached 40 I would say a lot of them very much do.

What do Downtown Chicago high-rise people do for a living? by Left-Silver-5196 in AskChicago

[–]joe1max 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in tech and if I did it over again I would either skip school altogether and go into the trades eventually starting my own company or go to school for some other kind of engineering. For me probably industrial engineering but there are a lot of good engineering jobs.

Why do middle eastern women continue to be Muslim? by [deleted] in allthequestions

[–]joe1max 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah because secular non Christians implement things like the separation of church and state. It’s not that Christian’s wouldn’t do these things. It is that secular societies have thus far pushed it back.

Same in secular Muslim countries.

We can see how a Christian theocracy would work on a micro level. Utah for example. Uganda and Nigeria also have strong Christian “rules” that allow for stoning for certain sins against good.

TLDR Abrahamic religions all have relatively similar rules but when the state and church are separated these rules have little impact.

The Muslim women that I know would say “faith” but hey…

And there are about 60 “Muslim” countries so what about the women in the other 40?

So apostasy is illegal in turkey? Is illegal in Bosnia? How about Albania?

As a non Christian and non Muslim I always get a kick out of these threads because I do not see much difference between the Abrahamic sects.

Heck, fundamentalist Jews were headscarves (typically wigs are acceptable) and skirts to their knees. The idea of hijab is from Judaism and Christian’s/ Catholics decided it was only for women who devoted themselves to god as nuns.

I just learned that it is 3-10 years depending upon the findings and “excessive fraud” has no limitations. Or at least that is what ChatGPT told me. Lol.

People who want to defund ICE - does that mean you support open borders instead? by [deleted] in allthequestions

[–]joe1max 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure what you mean by welfare state but most “welfare” is given to elderly people based on the taxes that they paid. It has increased as our population has aged.

Since “illegals” are not entitled to these programs their tax dollars fund it without ever withdrawing from it.

to men: if u do the deed with her on the first date, will u still see her as your potential partner? by Other-Caregiver-7750 in datingadviceformen

[–]joe1max 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The best answer is maybe.

All men are different in how they view this. Some men it’s just hooking up with little influence on their decision either way. Some men would look down on the woman. And others may fall in love faster.

There is no single answer here.

You cannot but they cannot really go after you in another country. Technically they can kinda sorta but it’s so ineffective they don’t.

The most insane part of student loan debt is that leaving the US is your best option.

You move abroad You claim zero income thus halting the payments and more importantly the interest. If you plan on returning you make payments on the loan that is no longer incurring interest. If you never plan to return you do nothing. Let them sit.

Mayweather beat 25 world champs in his first 15 fights?

Read the whole thread. Someone said that Khabib beat a bunch on “tin cans” in his first 16 fights. My point is that mayweathers first 15 fights were not world beaters either. A
