From what I read, I don't think OP knows. My dad came here on a J-1 visa as a student which meant my mum, my sisters and me came here on a J-2 visa since we were dependent on his visa status.

It took us 10 years of constant applying, thousands of dollars spent before we got our green cards. I still remember my interview because I got my green card in 2015 and it was the most invasive thing I've ever gone through. I still even remember all the interviews we had to do before we got our visas to come to America.

In my opinion, I don't think OP really knows how difficult it is to get to America in the first place as an immigrant. It's not as simple as the media makes it out to be.

Ah I see. I guess I got confused somewhere. Thanks for the clarification.

Can someone explain to me the main differences between a language like Common Lisp and Haskell?

I'm planning on learning on a purely functional language this year and I've narrowed it down to Haskell and CL but I don't know which to pick. Haskell has sort of been winning due to my friends knowing it and using it.

If you have any resources as well, please let me know. I don't know if this is the right place to post this.

I deleted the comments but it doesn't mean I'm not going to fight. I'm just trying to be civilized. Exposing the company could make things more complicated and I don't really want that.

Ok. How do I go about deleting comments? It seems I've missed the time to delete the comments.

I do agree with everything you've said though. I now wish I didn't mention the company but I guess it's too late to change that.

EDIT: I emailed [email protected] about deleting the comments. Hopefully that helps.

EDIT 2: seems like the comments are gone.

I should mention that I've managed to curb my addiction for the past year and a half now. Coming up to two years clean in December.

I'm deleting the article tonight but I wanted to make sure people got the whole story and I didn't mention the company at all.

I'll definitely look into getting an internship gig and probably spend all of tonight and tomorrow applying for the software gigs that I think I'll be a good fit in. Still debating suing.

Actually I live in Indiana but very close to Chicago and commute to Chicago daily for work....well I did. My boss was from Indiana and I don't think he was either Christian or Mormon.

I see a psychiatrist and a therapist twice a week. Obviously they're are cutting into my runway but I figured it's worth it since I've been doing much better ever since I wrote the piece of writing.

You can read the piece of writing I wrote here: https://medium.com/@tmidao/confession-55fa5d4a3c0b

I'm always happy to clarify on any part that wasn't clear or you need more information on.
