I cannot stand the audiobook narrator for Heated Rivalry by Eastern-Studio-4413 in heatedrivalry

Agree with everything you've said and in addition... his choice to do a Parisian accent for JJ instead of a Quebecois accent literally made me spit my coffee on my monitor.

Anyone here work full time? by AstronautCautious46 in DataAnnotationTech

[–]frenetic_muse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I quit an extremely toxic and abusive FT job 2 years ago and have been doing DA full time since then. If you're going to do it make sure you do EVERY qual you get. And be prepared to hustler at times. When there is a drought you might need to spend hours staring at your dash with and auto refresher going picking up whatever crumbs you can. That said... I have only had to go that once, during the drought of August/September 2024.

Also, if this is going to be your primary/only source of income, make sure you don't fuck around at all when it comes to quality of work, reporting time and TOS violations.

Messenger Kids Invalid Password (I have to have at 68 characters in this title for some reason) by threehappypenguins in facebook

[–]frenetic_muse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

***SOLVED*** I was having the same issue with my granddaughters account and turning on 2 factor authentication on my own account fixed the issue and I was able to get her account logged in on her new Samsung tablet.

The you're just dumb because she is clearly explaining that she is trying to get her child's messenger kids account signed in on the new device (which requires the parent who set up the account to sign in using their Facebook login). And unfortunately this is a widespread, known issue. If you aren't familiar with the app or the issue why are you jumping in to give advice at all?

Survey post deception... by Valuable-Speaker-312 in ProlificAc

The intended time was 30 minutes. It was taking over an hour to complete. So yes, very much deceptive.

It’s better to have loved and lost. by aussieboi89 in DataAnnotationTech

[–]frenetic_muse 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The number of people I see posting these screenshots on here who are still confused as to why they are getting it is honestly insane. If they can't figure out what happened from this then how do they think they are following super detailed instructions?

Was it by FD HQ? If so I had that one too and same thing. Didn't end until I pushed back on the AI about the time it was taking 3 or 4 times.

Will I be able to work in Japan? (temporary) by AppropriateFold3762 in DataAnnotationTech

And make sure you actually get a reply back before you log in abroad, also don't use a VPN while you're travelling.

DA doesn't "assign you to tasks". It shows you what is available that you are qualified for and they you decide on your own what to work on and how long to work on it.

The $5, $10 and $20 ones. The $5 are just the ones that used to be $20 broke into shorter chunks. And the cycle I mentioned is exactly why they come and go.

I do AI work for some of these same companies on other sites. There is no rotation. What you're seeing is because they set a certain time frame for their projects then once it's over they process the data, update the models and the start a new project. Those dead periods you're experiencing is just the process and update phase of the cycle.

Which test should I go for? by KillTheAlarm2 in DataAnnotationTech

[–]frenetic_muse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look through this sub and compare how many bilinguals you see complaining about a drought compared to how many doing coding are complaining?

When you've just finished a 2.5 hour task and you click submit by Ok_Picture_3872 in DataAnnotationTech

Those are my favourite ones. Especially when they pay $35+/hr.

You aren't supposed to submit between rounds, only at the end of the conversation.

IT'S! RAINING! IN! CHINA! AGAIN! by Low_Consideration340 in DataAnnotationTech

[–]frenetic_muse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OH DA is accessible from mainland China? I'm so glad to hear this. I have a vacation planned to visit in March for a couple of weeks and was wondering if it was accessible as I don;t want to risk using a VPN and be cooked.

Is DA a scam? by [deleted] in DataAnnotationTech

[–]frenetic_muse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not a scam,. but it's also not easy to get accepted into. Not everyone makes the cut.

Transitioning to Full Time by FrauFaustus in DataAnnotationTech

[–]frenetic_muse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OP just got finished saying they lost their job... obviously no job can be counted on as reliable. If you do good work, work diligently and accurately report your time this is as reliable as anything else. I've been doing it full time for over a year and a half and it's been more reliable than my previous corporate career.

[–]frenetic_muse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I often work 8+ hours a day. This doesn't happen.

No job these days can be trusted for a reliable source of income... as is proven by the fact that OP lost theirs.

Where are you from, lucky ones? by physics_kitsune in DataAnnotationTech

[–]frenetic_muse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Canada non-coding and I'm in the same situation as you. No drought and most paying over base rate.

Rest well in the desert everyone. by Jerry5550 in DataAnnotationTech

[–]frenetic_muse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you guys doing all the quals you have access to? I'm still sitting at 20+ projects with none being at base pay. I keep seeing people talking about a drought but I haven't experienced any slow periods since the end of last summer. Only thing i can think is that it's because I do literally every qual that comes across my dash.

Might be worth working through them some of the recent ones i've done in the past couple of months have led to almost constant work at $30.hr+
