    I was at the receiving end of this. Not at Amazon but at another similar Silicon Valley tech company. When I was hired I thought it was a great opportunity and moved my family to S…

    Thanks for that, will try out graphviz. I was doing some custom implementation for minimizing edge crossings and it seems to work fine for me but thats mostly for 2-layered graphs.…

    Can I ask - how did you find working with graphviz. Was this your first time working with it, how long did it take you to figure out how to place things and draw? I am working with…

    As someone with IBS, totally agree with you. I wish the research would trickle down into actual treatments. I have started following a lot of research about gut etc but very little…

    Thanks for that. Gives a lot more perspective. Is it usually high maintenance to maintain the farm i.e. do you have people taking care of it - how hands on do you have to be for th…

    If you don't mind, what do you produce on your farm and how many do you hire. It seems like you would need a high output yield to generate millions or have a pretty large farm. Als…

    Yes and FDA started restricted the amount anyone can buy because some people started abusing it to the extreme. Now to get a 16mg dose, you would probably need a prescription

    Wow, cant imagine being in your situation. I would say try to ease yourself into lowering your dose slowly. I am not sure if its even possible with your situation but with IBS I tr…

    As someone who only suffers from IBS, I have had good results from elimination and low fodmap diet. However stress and anxiety also have a pretty big and equal effect as diet. Both…

    Good point about dual intent. One thing though I think it’s bit easier to renew and you can also keep renewing it without any time limit.

    Agree with you completely. I don’t understand why it’s so hard to come up with a Canadian or UK like points based system.

    Thanks. With the way it’s phrased as ‘case by case‘ basis - I think even if it’s technically allowed, they may end up rejecting on broad terms. Anyways I am already packing my bags…
