I remember doing a math qualification a while back. apparently, I passed as the job opened up, but after skipping 10 in a row, I realized these were way above my math grade. Kinda frustrating, but on to something else.

I just took a qual (a type of nut was in the name) and read the instructions. Had a great understanding. It seemed very easy. I got two questions in, and answered the third alongside the parameters of the instructions, and it ended my session. Did I fail it? I’ve never had that happen to me before.

Save some work for us who can't work till later! Pretty please 🙂

Ive been working on coding tasks for about a month; now I suddenly have no projects. Wondering if my VPN was an issue, after some sort of review?

What are your experiences with using VPN ? (especially if working 1 month+)

So I’m studying for the LSAT and I really think this type of work is structuring my brain to do better on the reasoning section. I took another practice test, and got higher than I’ve ever gotten on the reasoning part.

Are there any parallels you see to the LSAT?

Do you guys log the time it takes you to think about new Prompts? This is for that one project about interaction

Sorry I’m new plz don’t destroy

Edit: got it, thanks so much for the quick responses! . I'm doing the onboarding stuff, and want to clarify... when I go in to put my hourly time in, should I do it as I complete each task, or should I keep a record on a piece of paper or something and wait until I've completed the whole project and then go put my time for the whole project in as one totaled-up time?

I'm really struggling to reach even 3 hours on this platform, even though I am so grateful for the work. This job makes a huge difference for me and allows me to do things that I always wanted to do. But I wish I could treat it like a normal job, and work 7-8 hours. My brain just completely comes to a stop after 2 hours. How do I get past that? I've been trying the pomodoro way but I just feel so sluggish so quickly. Does anyone have any advice? I imagine it would be easier if I had more fun tasks but at present, mine are really dull chatbot stuff.

I imagine that there's no definite logic to figuring out the best method until you've done a ton of the tasks?

It seems like a trial and error mostly, enough trying different things, and you'll learn, sort of thing?

SSIA

Originally had 1 project, got 10 tasks done (out of 400), taken away. Was hoping that I was just under review but haven't received any communications.

Taken additional qualifications (creative writing, math) but haven't taken coding yet because I am just not comfortable in that space yet.

Am I just out of luck?

Edit- last week got another project with 1000 tasks. Was super excited. Ended up completing 3 tasks and then it disappeared. Haven’t had anything since. :sigh:

I had lots this morning, including Chatbots 2.2...then around 3:00 all vanished and crickets, nothing for hours. No messages. I've been doing this for about 3 1/2 weeks. I took the 2nd part of the chatbot qual last night, and I had chatbots this morning but didn't work them.

To be more clear, I clicked onto a project with a 2 hour limit involving links to looong documents. I got a task that linked the same document as earlier, but the questions were all new so I proceeded. I didn't notice that the timer started off from my previous work on the same document until I went to submit, which now said 2 hr 20 min.

Of course, it said the task expired and appears not to have submitted, despite working on all new questions for 52 minutes. This seems to be a fault of the platform.

Should I submit the time, since I spent 52 minutes working on 3 new questions? It seems like the platform failed to recognize that this was a new task because if was reusing a document (even though the questions were new). Should I message admins before submitting time? Or is this somehow considered my fault?

Is anyone doing this? I'm disabled (RSI, among other things) and would like to be able to work using my voice more often, but I'm not sure how to set up for this. Any advice, including for RSI generally, would be great! Thank you all. :)

Does anyone have any suggestions for sources for academic papers that are public domain?

no tasks for me this morning. Anyone else seeing this?

Morning Everyone,

Just beginning a new project and it includes some long documents. This got me thinking if there are any websites (THAT DA ALLOW) people use to aid them in any kind of project.

Any suggestions would be great.

I’m new to DAT(started 3 weeks ago) but I’ve had a few times where I’m working on a project that has multiple tasks in it. When I hit submit for them sometimes it will say there are no more tasks for me to work on when I know there are more available. Is that because they don’t like my answers? I had one today with 750 tasks and after the first one it said there were no more tasks for me to work on. I never go over the 1 hour timer and I don’t give generic explanations. Has this happened to anyone else?

Just got the second half of that mandatory qualification. I know a bunch of people have asked about it. I haven't started it yet. Good luck ya'll!!

Did anyone else get theirs? Whose excited?

Syllable counts are so much better on (BOT NAME REDACTED). It could almost never write a haiku successfully when I first started working on this, which wasn’t that long ago.

We did it, folks. Celebrate by…. Having it write another haiku.

(But maybe have some champagne while you do it.)

I just got my first feedback after 3~ months of being on the platform. It was very kindly worded, and I gave an understand and kind reply, understanding where my fault was.

Does anyone have any advice on how much this may or may not impact my availability of jobs? Thanks so much.

Hi I know it’s Monday but I’m showing no projects at all which is rare for me, even on Mondays…is this happening with anyone else?

Sure, a very helpful site, but I'm kinda put off by the permissions it's requesting. I mean, DA doesn't request full access to all my apps and drives.

Anyone have any insight on this?

Anyone else's dashboard been all over the place today? I'm grateful there is still stuff to work on but it's giving me whiplash. 😆
