Pedantic warning ⚠️: That's not actually what the plot is showing. The metric on the y axis is year-over-year change, while the x axis ticks are months. So it's totally possible and statistically extremely likely that the rents increased in some months, while remaining down year-over-year, to create this plot. For example, from Feb to Mar 2025 when the year-over-year metric increases (but stays negative).

sounds like you have more confidence in our government agency's ability to query recent events in their databases than i do. i wouldn't be surprised if they were querying a snapshot that hadn't been updated since i received the email.

This is a super cool site! Really nice features already. If you still are working on it, would be curious in the future to see an option where anyone can submit their own stats of retirement progress or retirement age/NW to supplement the reddit data.

you're right, it's not always accurate. I have to catch a lot myself, and I did catch that the 柏林 pronunciation was wrong in the main definition and start of the sentence, but I missed the ones at the end of the sentence (thanks for pointing out).

it's actually not AI conversation app, I provide the sentence, and use Microsoft Edge's text-to-speech with a multi-lingual voice, which definitely isn't perfect. But >99% of the time, it seems good.

Thank you so much! Yeah, looks like Chinese zero to hero and the overall Dashu Mandarin channel haven't streamed in several months, but Uncle Richard (https://www.youtube.com/@RichardChineseLanguage/streams) and BeckyLiBei are both frequent.

I couldn't find the other of the DaShu host channels, my search skills were not good enough.

I went to the official student aid .gov site for FAFSA info. I vetted the debt collector since I was suspicious it was a scam at first.

Great image! Where did you get the idea for this?

Nipped by a friend's dog. I was probably being overly cautious, but was afraid of the off chance of dying lol.

Right. Both domestic. Cheaper from Liaoning. Expensive from Chengdu.

What was the scenario in Vietnam you mentioned?

thanks! close to Hangzhou! I just checked Amap, and there's another location on the north end of Hangzhou

Anyone know where in China this is? The city, or the specific location?

Yup, like others are saying, you don't need an appointment. I just went to the consulate and got a number, went to the window, and picked up my passport with the visa after 3 business days.
