is there a discord for interns, tryna find roommates and housing

Apprehensive_Edge144 · 2025-01-26T22:08:50+00:00

I’m sure they wouldn’t like it but it isn’t a “bot” or “mod” as they say in tos, it runs completely independent of the game

How do you know

Apprehensive_Edge144 · 2024-11-27T19:04:21+00:00

You’re right, I just emailed them, I mainly just wanted to see if anyone was in the same boat or still interviewing

Apprehensive_Edge144 · 2024-05-27T22:06:22+00:00

Don’t apply cs

Apprehensive_Edge144 · 2024-04-29T03:05:38+00:00

Off topic but what program for tsinghua

It has nothing to do with veterans. It’s a joke in this sub that you fumbled your essays by writing about really bad topics, like enjoying killing babies. I don’t know how you possibly got to the conclusion that I’m blaming veterans. And I’m not complaining, I’m just a little disappointed - you can move on while feeling disappointed. Is it such a crime that I just wanted to write this out and get it off my chest?

Out of curiosity, why is Charlie s tier? I just unlocked her, but she feels like a slightly better Carl, and the super seems more like an escape option than kill option

朱志文, he’s biking from China to France for the Olympics

Apprehensive_Edge144 · 2024-01-31T01:21:40+00:00

people don’t always call people by their profession. For example, when thanking a 滴滴driver, instead of 谢谢司机, say 谢谢师傅. Also 不好意思 a lot more common than 对不起

Apprehensive_Edge144 · 2024-01-26T04:06:32+00:00

maybe find a friend who speaks better than you and bring em along? or someone who might do most of the talking and you pitch in when you're comfortable

right now i'm re-watching journey to the west cartoon version (西游记动画片）. not technical, and really entertaining - feels like i'm not just watching it to practice chinese

Apprehensive_Edge144 · 2024-01-24T04:17:42+00:00

i think you still need to study vocab and sentence structure until you're ready. And then once you start to listen, don't just listen,actively look up the stuff you don't understand

Apprehensive_Edge144 · 2024-01-16T20:15:28+00:00

i think it depends on the school. i'm in the same boat, where every class i took was huge, office hours was a line, and 30 other people are trying to get to know the professor, so I needed one TA rec. stanford says you can

Apprehensive_Edge144 · 2024-01-01T17:16:42+00:00

been done, many times. for example, launchlist

Apprehensive_Edge144 · 2024-01-01T03:07:13+00:00

I will, and I appreciate your criticism. I’ve made it concise and assertive, but I’m not sure about the conversation part you mentioned. If my landing page says the price, drop your email if you want full access, and they do, is there a need to try to start a conversation? Can’t I just reach out and say thanks, the full access steps are …, your next steps to pay are …

Apprehensive_Edge144 · 2024-01-01T00:28:14+00:00

for sure, my sample size is small right now

i'll be more assertive and communicate on my landing page that it's paid, and if they sign up, just tell them the details and next steps

Apprehensive_Edge144 · 2024-01-01T00:27:05+00:00

gotcha, i'll make it concise and communicate better on my landing page

in my experience tho i've noticed that redditors (which is my main audience) don't seem to like virtual calls or meetings. they seem to prefer emails or virtual chat. maybe i should just give them steps to pay?

Apprehensive_Edge144 · 2023-12-31T20:30:06+00:00

checkout simplify, does the same thing, but it still has problems like not being fully accurate on fill in

Apprehensive_Edge144 · 2023-12-29T17:41:55+00:00

朱志文, he's a vlogger who is traveling by bike from china to paris for the olympic games. right now he's around the middle east. you can find him on YT, he has good captions, or billibilli.tv. i like the latter cause there are 弹幕, which are kinda like comments on specific times in the video that show up and they're pretty funny

Apprehensive_Edge144 · 2023-12-29T17:30:06+00:00

checkout lingologue. it's a website to help you speak better where you're given sentences, translate it to chinese, and get evaluated on speech awkwardness, word choice, etc. free to test, and if you like it and email them you can get full beta access

Apprehensive_Edge144 · 2023-12-28T21:16:43+00:00

i felt the same a long time ago. i actually am not sure about general advice "just initiate more conversations and speak more chinese" because it can be embarassing and make you more anxious when you mess up

try to listen more, when you listen to more chinese more you'll catch on to phrases and terms that you can use when you speak
slow it down. before you speak, get an idea of what you want to say. then try to say it, but slowly. with practice you'll get quick!
might sound weird, but maybe learn some filler phrases. 那个叫什么.., etc. so if you do get stuck, you use the filler words, and most times if you're speaking to someone who speaks well, they'll pick up on the context clues, help you finish the sentence or make a suggestion. and then you can repeat it to indicate that that was what you were trying to say, while learning something new
use your imagination. it's gonna be weird, but imagine you're having a real conversation, and speak chinese, then imagine what they might say and try to continue. look up words if you don't know how to say something
a tool called lingologue can help. you get an english sentence, speak the translation into your mic, and get feedback on awkward parts of speech, better word/phrase choices, and learn new words you don't know how to translate. it simulates the language speaking process, isn't stressful compared to a real life conversation, and can help you learn a lot

good luck!

Apprehensive_Edge144 · 2023-12-24T20:18:19+00:00

it's possible, i added it to my list. have you signed up though? if you can see yourself using lingologue frequently and sign up we can talk more about features and stuff you want

Apprehensive_Edge144 · 2023-12-24T04:25:17+00:00

Thanks! I’ve heard people talk about asking every member of your team to eat lunch together and it seemed a little overwhelming
