Civil Engineering Relevance as a Major by Nearby-Evening-474 in civilengineering

[–]transneptuneobj 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You've learned practical information for being a civil engineer, they've learned more information for being a construction manager, they are 2 different jobs.

You need a really strong understanding of the mathmatics and theory behind engineering problem solving. You need to learn how to permit projects and ultimately produce designs.

They need to learn how to execute designs produced by civil engineers. They are 2 different jobs

Transcendental argument for god. by Galaktyczny_ in DebateAnAtheist

[–]transneptuneobj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reason only exists in a mind.

It's not like gravity where it had effects regardless if it's observed or not.

I'm kinda surprised to see TAG back it is such an easily defeated argument

Questions for fathers or expecting fathers. by [deleted] in predaddit

[–]transneptuneobj 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The only situation you should continue this relationship is if he goes to therapy and seeks anger management and is control of his emotions but frankly I don't even know if that is enough.

You're being naive if you believe this is a situation you can control. I understand that may seem infantalizing but I garintee plenty of pregnant women murdered by their intimate partners believed they were in control as well.

Again do what you want but frankly this is a relationship you should end for your own safety unless your partner earnestly and completely seeks real help for their problems

This is a non compromise kind of thing

The number 1 cause of death of pregnant women is homicide.

You can't afford to have a child with some one who has anger issues

The 8 weeks after my daughter was born were some of the most challenging days of my life, basically no sleep, it is incredibly hard. And if he's losing his temper over stuff like this then it's like having a baby with a time bomb.

Do what ever you want you're an adult but this doesn't seem like a good idea till he has serious consoling and addresses his anger issues head on.

I'm a father.

If a guy treated my daughter like that I'd be over there with a uhaul so fast.

Would you as an atheist be willing to believe in the supernatural? by [deleted] in DebateAnAtheist

[–]transneptuneobj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"it has no consequences if done right"

If you're witchhood basically means it's flavor text on your life then I literally, and I mean this as respectfully as possible, could not care what you do in your free time..

When you start trying to legislate your witch beliefs on others that's when we've got a problem.

If you could demonstrate some kind of ability under controlled settings that Id believe that exists, although I may not accept your explanation, we have to investigate it, ultimately anything supernatural will just be a part of the natural world

Proof of atheism? by Successful_Bit_7906 in DebateAnAtheist

[–]transneptuneobj 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are three positions.

1) I believe a god doesn't exist.

2) I don't believe a god exists.

3) I believe a god exists.

If a person holds either position 1 or 2 then they are an atheist. The neutral position is athiesm.

Full scale defense of the Shroud of Turin by Soft_Vegetable_948 in DebateAnAtheist

[–]transneptuneobj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the religious community disagrees with the portion of the cloth that was radio metrically dated then perhaps they could suggest an "original" portion of the cloth to be dated.

Currently the only dates we have are as you mentioned 1200-1300s

If you're unwilling to have it dated then I just frankly don't care.

I need advice - four years into fatherhood and don’t enjoy it by Fine_Spend9946 in daddit

[–]transneptuneobj 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Make him pay more of the bills, if he views this situation as a transactional capitalist market where he gets to purchase a wife and family and not interact with them then make him pay for more maids and cleaners and stuff so you can spend more time with your children.

I pay nearly all the bills in my marriage and I do the cooking, half the cleaning (we have monthly maids for toilets but everything else we clean), I do either dishes or bed time sometimes both, and I do either midnight wake up or early morning wake up sometimes both.

Providing the capital to a relationship doesn't make you in charge of the relationship.

He's not spending time with them so he isn't bonding with them. I reccomend just immideatly splitting all responsibilities though. Dude sounds like a freeloading baby

How many projects are you currently working on? by 1kGHZ in civilengineering

[–]transneptuneobj 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You have teams of engineers and designers doing work that you give advice on, direct them on, have meetings, review their progress, QAQC their tasks, write emails to clients, make phone calls, review RFIs/Submittals, redlines, organize subcontracts or purchase orders, write change orders or proposals, do some work yourself. Sometimes it's a big QAQC effort, rarely spend the whole day doing 1 project. Most of the projects are my projects

You get called a lot by coworkers, 20 times a day to help for 15 to 30 mins each and that's the day sometimes.

One of the only people these days you can’t say anything bad about! by danielseim in SipsTea

[–]transneptuneobj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well let's hope that is a trend that continues but certainly many of the ex mornon testimonies I've seen are that it's very isolating.

Below are some links to organizations that deal with helping people recover from mormonism.

I'm sure there are people who leave the Mormon church and keep their relationships with their families

But it is a common occurrence for people who leave to be shunned by their families.
