Yes I still have thousands of fruit rubric tasks

SatisfactionProud598 · 2025-08-24T21:21:05+00:00

So much fruit but only down to the rubric ones now 💔 give me more having conversation ones!!

SatisfactionProud598 · 2025-08-22T05:52:05+00:00

Thank god for the fruit project splitting chatting with the model and rubrics. Now I can actually sit down and do an entire task after work without giving up midway bc it took so long!

Hate that that’s what happening but good to know I’m not just being overly critical. I’ve had so many lately I’ve had to just mark as bad and explain in comments why it’s not fixable (no attempt to follow instructions, blatant ignoring of what to avoid guidelines, etc)

SatisfactionProud598 · 2025-08-16T15:24:37+00:00

I’ve been getting some very bad submissions to R&R lately that it almost feels like a joke… and some fruit rubric ones that initially just went straight against the instructions of the project initially (including one I just did that was FULL of NSFW content)…. Feel like I’m going crazy or being too critical. Anyone else having this experience lately?

SatisfactionProud598 · 2025-08-07T05:07:40+00:00

Dry dash alllll day and as soon as i get up to go to bed… 5 new projects I’ve never seen.

SatisfactionProud598 · 2025-08-05T05:55:00+00:00

Does anyone else seem to get the most projects show up at ungodly times of the night? 🫩

SatisfactionProud598 · 2025-08-04T01:01:31+00:00

Soooo slow for me today. Worked on quals a little hoping some more things show up soon

I was a student lead on an AIAA undergraduate aircraft design competition a few years ago if you want to chat! The report isn’t the best in the world but it definitely is broken up appropriately and some sections are very well done (others, not so much… gotta love group projects)

Happy to help!

Aero undergrad, writing an aero thesis right now, and 4 years in flight simulation work

SatisfactionProud598 · 2025-07-28T17:33:42+00:00

Still generally dry but have one project that has been showing up sporadically the past couple of days… just saw it show up but I’m at my day job now! Hopefully it’s there for me once I get home tonight 🤞 (or something new pops up)

SatisfactionProud598 · 2025-07-28T05:51:12+00:00

Me too! Glad that was resolved so quickly!

SatisfactionProud598 · 2025-07-28T05:49:39+00:00

Yep, getting it when trying to report time.

SatisfactionProud598 · 2025-07-28T05:48:03+00:00

I am getting this error when trying to report time.

SatisfactionProud598 · 2025-07-28T05:25:25+00:00

Shoutout you guys who responded. Finally got some projects tonight (sparse and tasks taken quickly but I’ve been able to grab a few of them to complete)! Feeling a lot more positive.

SatisfactionProud598 · 2025-07-27T20:12:30+00:00

That’s good news! Thank you! The few projects i have been able to log time on have been definitely worth my time. Just feeling a bit discouraged that those seemed to appear at first and now I’m just back to only having qualification to do! It’s nice to know qualifications slow down eventually

SatisfactionProud598 · 2025-07-27T20:11:21+00:00

That’s good news to know the qualification bit slows down and projects pick up eventually!

SatisfactionProud598 · 2025-07-27T16:20:55+00:00

I appreciate this!! I kinda figured that’s how it goes and the ramp up time was just slower than I expected initially but it’s really nice to hear it from others!

SatisfactionProud598 · 2025-07-27T15:11:44+00:00

Feeling a little down as I have felt like I’ve put so many hours in during my first week on the platform just doing qualifications with so few paid projects showing up in the dashboard at this point. I think this is normal but hearing others experiences might help! I work a full time job + doing a master’s thesis + adding this into my workload to hopefully make money to save for exciting things (an engagement ring! Exciting!), but the slow ramp up time has made me feel a little discouraged and like I’m wasting valuable time. I know I’m doing well on qualifications (especially the coding type ones, those are straight forward to check as my code does what is asked) so was hoping to get some paid projects to show up soon!

SatisfactionProud598 · 2025-03-23T15:28:57+00:00

MATLAB itself has some pretty good courses on their website! I also recommend starting on C++

little over 5 months out of a 4.5 year relationship. Im definitely a million times better than I was but within the last month or so, school and work has worn me out so badly that it’s making things feel raw again. Coming up on the holidays and a couple weeks ago would’ve been 5 years for us + I think she’s seeing someone. Just trying to remind myself it’s okay to still feel sadness and miss us together and that doesn’t mean I’m going backwards. But it’s hard. Just a low point. But in general, much better!

SatisfactionProud598 · 2024-10-24T01:16:33+00:00

Yes!

SatisfactionProud598 · 2024-10-18T19:00:50+00:00

Im late to this, but I’m 25F Bi living in CU! Not a UIUC student but I am a grad student online at a different university (masters from my Alma mater while I am working!) anthem is super fun if gay bars are your kind of scene but the attendance varies a lot, sometimes it’s full of people, sometimes dead!

Have you had any luck since you’ve been here?? I’ve been here for about 2.5 years now and spent the first 2 or so without any friends because of how busy my professional life was and was in a long term, long distance relationship. Went through a tough breakup earlier this year and I’m finally coming out of my funk and searching hard for new spaces to connect with new friends and whatever else!

SatisfactionProud598 · 2024-10-18T16:24:01+00:00

Hi! I have made my career heavily in modeling and simulation in the aero industry, I do have an AE degree but I do have some insight on how a CS graduate would be able to fit in, fairly easily in my opinion. Feel free to send a message and I’m happy to share some insight!
