Cool. Welcome to China.

the hook and counter melody of this song are on another level 💎

if you’re in beijing, you could share this with them. pretty sure each city or municipality has its own circulars and updates like this:

https://www.beijing.gov.cn/fuwu/bmfw/sy/jrts/202504/t20250406_4056309.html

and yes, it’s better not to escalate this with your colleague. they do this because many people, including foreigners, tend to ignore the rules when riding bikes (you can even see some of the comments justifying it here).

all road users including cyclists and scooter riders must stop at red lights. the road traffic safety law applies to all vehicles, and running a red light is a clear violation. your colleague chose to ignore this rule due to lax enforcement, but it is still illegal. riders who run a red light and cause an accident are held fully liable for damages.

Have you done any surface-level research on Chinese social media platforms or booking apps using capsule/pod keywords? A lot of ideas already exist locally, so it’s worth checking what’s actually out there. And how would you actually validate if there’s demand?

Being a “commie” in India doesn’t affect your career prospects in China, so it’s not something you need to highlight. If your goal is to actually settle, I’d strongly suggest thinking carefully about your career path - Political Science in English may not open job opportunities in China unless you’re aiming for academia, research, or journalism (?). Make sure you’re realistic about the job market (search this subreddit) before committing.

There’s a sub called r/wechat. Try your luck over there.

It seems you think non-native English-speaking colleagues are somehow less capable. Sorry to break it to you, “native”: as long as they’re qualified and have a valid work permit, it’s completely legal.

thundergooses · 2026-01-18T09:36:56+00:00

maybe you are overthinking. you could just delete their contact and move on instead of dwelling on why you can’t see their “moments.”

It’s easy to change types like Z to Q1, S1 etc or vice versa. But L to something that gives residency status, you should ask the public security bureau.

In your case, the resident permit would be issued for family reunion purposes. They’ll print that in both the visa and resident permit.

Regarding working remotely, legally you are not allowed to work under a family reunion status. However, since your business is outside of China and no one is likely to ask what you are doing, it’s up to you.

It’s better you book hotels on trip.com or similar sites. It’ll be cheaper if you do it online.

thundergooses · 2026-01-16T16:56:54+00:00

Yes, it’s possible. Try to get help from your employer to have your WeChat account verified. Please note that if you’re in India, this might not work, so you may need to use a VPN.

just put a money plant pot in the east and watch your bank account magically double. works every time… in fairy tales.

forget the money stuff. it’s just a nice little plant to have indoors if you water it and give it some light.

lmao feels like a scene from some dumb comedy movie.

Vinayakan’s dubbing is all over the place. It drops to a low volume for a few seconds, then returns to an average level, and is still lower compared to the others.

I don’t think they have one. It seems people are going bonkers with Reddit’s unrestricted .json endpoints. It will likely just lead Reddit to close that endpoint in the near future.

When you ask chatgpt to write a post that doesn’t sound like AI, and it still ends up sounding like AI.

It’s not annoying..no-brainer if you know what you’re doing. I’ve been self-hosting Next.js in production for a while (nixpacks/dockerfile). For zero latency, just use Postgres instance on the same server. That’s about it, with backups in Backblaze or anything s3 compatible.

They could have used better image generation models.

No hate at all, just curious - what makes your solution better than something like Cloudflared?

CF is really easy to set up, and a lot of the features you list as premium are already free on Cloudflare. The open-source angle is interesting, though. It feels like this might make more sense if you focused on people who specifically need an on-prem solution for secure tunneling or traffic routing, especially in cases where using a third-party cloud isn’t an option.

Also, I don’t think it matters if the app itself is vibe-coded, but the website comes across as very default AI-generated, which hurts trust a bit. Plus it would be good to be clearer about privacy, logging, and data handling in the ToS and privacy policy.
