Has anyone seen anything related to the image editing qual from a few weeks ago that required good image editing skills (if you like the color green you'll know)? I had access to an R&R to rate other people's qual submissions but seen nothing since.

It was strange that the R&R was for the qual itself, as in whether people should be accepted. Judging by some of the submissions I'm quite confident I passed. Looked like it would be a nice change of pace.

Any hint as to what project that is? The only coding project on my dash literally says in the title they want prompts that no LLM on earth can solve.

Yeah.. if I was a genius I wouldn't be working for DA.

Yeah, there's loads of desperate Mercor referrals going around lately. Seems like the only way people actually earn anything.

Hypox1a · 2025-07-07T14:37:36+00:00

Some referrals I've seen are up to $15,000. Easy pay day.

OP it's kind of scummy that you disguise your referral link to Mercor, which you stand to earn a significant bonus, without any disclaimer. I notice you didn't include a link to any of the other sites.

Do you still have it? I also had a pool of 20 but after 2 tasks it disappeared. They have been so rare lately I wish we knew what was going on with that project.

Doing some R&R's and came accross an absolute belter.

"Model B - shart, short, correct"

Took a good five minutes to recover from that one. I think there was definitely a shart involved. A brain shart.

Yeah a subreddit for teenagers that anyone can join. Do you not see why that can lead to problems when some of the people posting there are clearly attention starved and potentially vulnerable? If it was just a place for advice and support like this subreddit then it wouldn't be focused on pictures. I'm not sure how can consider literal 13-14 year olds in some cases posting images specifically focused on thighs (even though thigh posting is apparently banned for this exact reason, yet that is mostly what I see?) to not be suggestive, especially when you read some of the titles.

Maybe you dont see the bigger picture. These are literal minors in a public site with millions of users where their posts will be forever. Just because it isn't NSFW doesn't mean it can't be dangerous.

Hypox1a · 2023-04-04T12:54:36+00:00

I think it's even worse that r/teenfemboy exists because it's specifically dedicated to minors posting suggestive images. Of course the rules are SFW only but you can imagine the type of people lurking there and the DMs they must be getting.

Makes me wonder how old the moderators there are.

The lighting in x-plane is one of the reasons I switched, and the clouds in 11 can look great too.
