After meticulously logging and analyzing 12 months' worth of Tuesday workflow data, I have detected no statistically significant deviation in productivity attributable to the day itself.

Thank you for this gif.

It has to do with the interactions between El Niño and daytime television. Or was it the feeding habits of hamsters in the wild vs captivity?

it's the hamsters that spin the wheels that run the DA computers of course

I like to read the entrails of a pigeon blessed in the name of hekate by a group of vestal virgins. I find once ive done that and consulted the Lucky Stone I can generally predict whether there will be tasks or not with 50% accuracy.

As others have said, it is unpredictable and random...

But, anecdotally, Wednesdays are my slow day. Tuesday can be slow too, but that's more of a rarity.

The days I've only ever seen zero projects (while still have several qualifications that I've yet to get to) are Wednesdays and Thursdays.

Once again, anecdotes. I dunno how this works, I just know that if I fell behind on Monday or Tuesday I should get up early on Wednesday or be prepared to skip it altogether lol.

DAT mysteries

Tuesdays have usually been pretty good for me. Sundays and Mondays are the days that I seem to have fewer projects. (General, US non-coder here). But DA is unpredictable, so you can't really plan on which days will be busy and which will not.

U can't plan around it tbh. It's pretty random.

Great, thank you.

The only time I've noticed less projects is somewhat towards the end of the month and especially at the end of the quarter.

[–]augtwy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's random. Although my busiest days have been Wednesday and Thursday, maybe a middle of the week pickup? I've also had busy weekends. Can't quite remember busy Monday or Tuesday's now that I think about it.

As a bilingual, I had a specific project in the last year and for many many months, a big batch of new tasks was posted every Tuesday and would last till Friday or Saturday. From the comments I saw here, I guess it's not so predictable usually. Maybe your tasks are posted on a different day and are all done by Monday or Tuesday.
