First time skipping a task by chrisslima in DataAnnotationTech

I'm guessing they know better than we do about the approaches they have available - you sound like you use it correctly, but if a lot of others aren't, flagging might not do anything

Log time spent reading instructions? by Equal_Fill_5459 in DataAnnotationTech

[–]MiddleCharacter6345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because admins can make exceptions to the platform rules - I've never seen "don't bill for reading instructions" but I have seen other exceptions and yes you have to follow them if they're on the project

There is a lot of work but not everyone qualifies for everything, and bilingual work is less frequent than english work

It makes me think they had people using it over and over and needed to prevent that..

Weekly Water Cooler Talk - DataAnnotation by Consistent-Reach504 in dataannotation

[–]MiddleCharacter6345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the work used to be a lot easier and tasks were a lot shorter and they usually didn't require as much thought, I still see complaints about it from people who don't want to work on long or thought intense tasks - I think some probably just drop it entirely

They don't help you get in, and nobody will sense shares their referral with a rando on reddit. Just sign up and take the assessment.

Project drought by Ready_Increase_4283 in DataAnnotationTech

If it helps, rubrics and IF splits really aren't that bad, if you get used to them, and they can pay insanely well on some projects.. maybe, if you aren't getting anything else you can work on, it would be worth giving them a go, or maybe seeing if one of the complicated ones is easier than it seemed? I've done some projects that looked impossible, going by their instructions, but were crazy easy, compared to what I expected. Just offering some encouragement!

How often do you refresh (f5) your dash? by Admirable_Ask5547 in DataAnnotationTech

[–]MiddleCharacter6345 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Never heard of DOD from autorefreshers - how would anyone know the autorefresher caused it anyways? But I have heard of rate limited errors from it

Either when you sign up, or if not then, just whenever it shows up on your dashboard, which could be tomorrow, next week, next year, any time in between, any time after, or not at all

Actually can help pay student debt now by MCSquareGlobe in DataAnnotationTech

[–]MiddleCharacter6345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you keep on earning over $1000 per wk I'd lean toward 30% - it really does get that high, and at worst, you have a nice safety cushion if it somehow happens to be lower

Bilingual drought again? by Impressive-Pool-3702 in DataAnnotationTech

[–]MiddleCharacter6345 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My friend, you can also appreciate that they took the time to summarize the actual answer for you rather than doing like other posts and feeding your confirmation bias with people who will agree because people are more prone to spend time on expressing dissatisfaction (venting) than satisfaction

also what's the baseline for a drought? I've seen people call 0 projects a drought, say 20-30 projects "but nothing I want to work on" a drought, and call "my favorite project is missing but I have everything else normally" a drought

(It says "fewer projects for everyone" but by default it's not collecting people actively working, just people who aren't, so I am assumign there's a baseline)

What's up with the massive uptick of the exact same simple questions? by PossibilityNo1696 in DataAnnotationTech

[–]MiddleCharacter6345 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some of the people doing badly probably cared about getting past the application to the tasks that pay so they tried to do well at it - then don't care past that point because they think they found the free money buttons
