The following text may particularly interest the residents of Yerevan who use the public transportation frequently

I have been living in Yerevan for around 6 months now and it happens I have been using the bus virtually every single day of this time period. Most of the time I am using a select group of 4 buses that take me from my apartment to the center. I always put a lot of effort figuring out which one to hop on while I am waiting at the station, so that I end up on the bus that is the least crowded at that time.

Yesterday I came up with an idea, that utilizing the current existing digital infrastructure, can tell users on the Yandex app, for example, whether their bus is overcrowded or not, using color gradient from green to red. I won't get into the technical details, just picture that you could see which one of your buses is the least crowded so you can enjoy a less intense commute.

I am wondering whether a tiny feature like this would be able to help distribute passengers slightly more efficiently or not.

So I had my GCM interview on April 24 and I am still waiting with no response. An applicant I know who had his interview on April 25 received his admission decision only within 5 days, while I am still refreshing my email every 30 minutes.

What could this possibly indicate? Is this most likely a rejection?

I come from Goris and I relocated to Yerevan just last year. I turned 18 in January and the first decision I made as an adult was to give up on meat. My end goal is to go completely vegan, but for now I have just not been eating meat for the past months. Although this is somewhat of a mild dietary restriction it’s been absolutely brutal to be vegetarian in Armenia. I practically can’t eat anywhere: family gatherings, holidays, whatever. It’s so annoying that nutritious vegan food is marketed as luxury food in Armenia, and I spend most of the modest income I get each month on my food. I am wondering if there are any vegan communities in Armenia that can share tips and some advice on how to become a vegan in Armenia.

This year I am finishing high school and I have applied to Zhejiang University in China. Ever since my early teenage years I have always wanted to paint my nails, even though it's not really embraced for men where I live and go to school. I only had the opportunity to do this during an exchange program in Germany.

I am really curious, provided I get to attend Zhejiang, will I be able to do this or not. If it's not something tolerated, is it only socially unaccepted or to the point where the institution would take action against me.

Hi everyone,

I’m a high school senior from Armenia applying for the Bachelor in Management and Data Science at the Heilbronn campus for Winter 2026/27.

I’m currently setting up my VPD on uni-assist but I have a timing question. I finish high school in one month. I don't have my final Atestat or final grades yet.

Is it better to submit the uni-assist application and pay the fee now with my current transcripts to get in the queue, or should I wait until I have the final Atestat in June? I’m worried about the 4–6 week processing time hitting the July 15 deadline.

Thanks for any help
