H1-B is a lottery and most companies won't sponsor you when there is uncertainty. O-1 is for individuals with extraordinary ability so probably not ideal for most people. L1 is probably the best option OP can look at. Also there is no paperwork to handle. First you need a job offer and then the company sponsors the visa for you.
Re:Ask HN: Is there any way to fix online dating? on Friday February 10, 2023 @12:39PM (#34742960)
I think the stark contrast of a guys matches/inbox to a girls matches/inbox is whats demoralising to most guys. I once read an apt expression for this where the men are thirsty in a desert and the women are thirsty in an ocean. I have all but given up on online dating and simply socialize in person. If I meet someone I like I would just ask them out. If it works out great if not hopefully I made the other person feel better about themselves.

Re:Ask HN: What games are you having fun with? on Sunday September 18, 2022 @04:58AM (#32885741)
Wish I could get more into single player story games. But I simply do not get the same dopamine rush that I get from winning against real people online. When I as younger I used to love story games because we didn't have internet back then and video games were a luxury. Now I have all the great story games of our era but it simply does not give me the same satisfaction as online multiplayer games.

Tekken 7, I have recently started and I really like the complexity of a 3d fighter. Major plus is that its a 1v1 competitive game, so all my losses are on me. I can't blame my teammates nor do i have to depend on them to not lose the game.

Good to see I am not the only one interviewing a ton. I have a different experience than yours for FE interviews. No leetcode questions. Mostly take home or live coding React/Vanilla JS stuff. No system design rounds either mostly talking about the tech stack in breadth and sometimes in-depth.

If you don't mind sharing, how did you obtain that many users in such a short period?

  We did lost something
Just nitpicking here but I think the correct statement is "We did lose something"
Don't think this is a high priority for them and it prolly wont go through congress. Most politicians talk about illegal immigration. They don't really care about legal immigration that much.

Its safe to assume anyone who plays PubG is computer literate enough to use VPN.
