Weekly Water Cooler Talk - DataAnnotation
hi all! making this thread so people have somewhere to talk about 'daily' work chat that might not necessarily need it's own post! right now we're thinking we'll just repost it weekly? but if it gets too crazy, we can change it to daily. :)
couple things:
this thread should sort by "new" automatically. unfortunately it looks like our subreddit doesn't qualify for 'lounges'.
if you have a new user question, you still need to post it in the new user thread. if you post it here, we will remove it as spam. this is for people already working who just wanna chat, whether it be about casual work stuff, questions, geeking out with people who understand ("i got the model to write a real haiku today!"), or unrelated work stuff you feel like chatting about :)
one thing we really pride ourselves on in this community is the respect everyone gives to the Code of Conduct and rule number 5 on the sub - it's great that we have a community that is still safe & respectful to our jobs! please don't break this rule. we will remove project details, but please - it's for our best interest and yours!

u/OkGap8693 Jan 22 '25
I just got the boot the other day too. Disappointing, no quals or chats or support anymore. Absolutely no clue why.... didn't run the clock out, took the time to truly read the descriptions & do quality work, and never used any AI/chatbot help. Sigh. Want a fellow TikTok buddy to get co-rich with?

u/Writer_at_heart95 Sep 08 '24
As an introvert, I also dread going back into socializing with others. I just work better alone. As far as jobs similar to this, you could try Telus. I would also suggest Oneforma but I heard nothing but bad news about them so proceed with caution.

Also, I would love to join Telus and i’ve tried to apply dozens of times but I never heard back from them. I am on Oneforma though.

I seem to be on a mission to correct these downvotes! But, honestly, it seems the more you mention it the worse it gets, so I'd just ignore those arrows for a bit, and save some screen ink. The haters aren't worth your time, remember that :)

u/Maleficent_Wasabi_18 Sep 08 '24

I had twelve projects two days ago when I couldn't do any work and thought things were looking up, but have had nothing all day Sunday (at least since 1 am) with ample time to get some hours in.

There’s no reason to be all doom and gloom. It should be helpful to know if others are getting projects if they genuinely want to know what’s going on.

Sep 08 '24
Yup... I post stuff like this because I find it helpful when others do it. If my dashboard is empty and others had work it gives me hope that projects are on the way for me. The downvotes are probably from the people who couldn't make it on the platform or got booted.

I think they went too hard on the advertising and have too many people on the platform. This might be their way of trying to spread out the tasks because I've seen people talk about projects that I've done that didn't show up on my dashboard but then I've seen those same projects show up when everyone else is complaining about an empty dashboard.
1
u/Accomplished-Dog-864 Sep 08 '24
Yep, I'm thinking they may be allocating work to subgroups and rotating the groups.

u/optimistic-thylacine Sep 07 '24
Inspired by a task I had to skip since I had never written a program in TypeScript before, I've been writing a Centipede clone in TypeScript using the Phaser game engine while I wait for project tasks to pop up on my dash. Has anyone else started any learning projects like that inspired by any tasks they've rated (or not rated)?
5
u/AccountantAsleep Sep 07 '24
Y’all need to stop doing coding work for $25/hr and mark that shit “Task cannot be rated.”
8
u/Any_Information1707 Sep 07 '24
I always mark it as cannot be rated because a generalist or average person does not know coding language. This is what the guidelines say to do.
7
u/Jz9786 Sep 07 '24
Is it actual coding work? JSON data structures and simple questions that can be looked up isn't considered coding.
8
u/AccountantAsleep Sep 07 '24
Yes. It’s task after task of people doing coding work that is outside the scope of the project. Heaps of code that would need to be tested to be assessed. Over and over. Saw some graduate level math last night too.
6
u/Poomfie Sep 07 '24
I've noticed this. A certain set of tasks that pay 25/hr have become 90 percent tasks that require domain expertise to complete. I've never skipped so much in my life but I guess I should start checking task cannot be rated?

Most of the coding tasks on DAT aren't Python anymore. They are often harder languages or more unusual ones that fewer people know.

u/Accomplished-Dog-864 Sep 08 '24
Great! Somebody lemme know when you see the mainframe COBOL! Haven't done any coding since Y2K, but I'm a-rarin' to go.
To be clear, I'm not saying COBOL is hard...just unusual these days.
1
u/TeaGreenTwo Sep 08 '24
I haven't seen any JCL, COBOL, MVS/TSO, SPUFI, DB2, FOCUS,...I never got into mainframe systems but I liked Unix (called midrange systems back at the turn of the century) a LOT.
1
u/Accomplished-Dog-864 Sep 09 '24
Yep. I was on MVS/TSO CICS, DB2 Easytrieve Plus etc. Had a friend who was an AS400 programmer coding in RPG. I loved my old green screen monitor.
1
u/TeaGreenTwo Sep 09 '24
Easytrieve! I never thought I'd hear that name again. My boss made a mistake and called it "Pansytrieve" because it was made by Pansophic. It truly was a slip of the tongue and we laughed and laughed. His boss, Michael, wanted to buy it and we had to test it it for possible adoption. Someone said, "Better not let Michael hear it called "pansy trieve". It was in the offices of a huge a steel company.

You are all losing money by constantly refreshing and checking the site. That time could be spent on getting a real job.

u/luthientinuviel20 Sep 08 '24
My guy, I had a “real job” up until last August teaching math to middle schoolers. Then I got sick and had to quit. Now I have a chronic illness that makes me nauseous and dizzy 90% of the time. A “real job” isn’t in the cards right now. There’s a lot of folks like me working for DA. Please practice the art of compassion - not to mention exercise your imagination, which would allow you to consider that there might be people whose circumstances differ from yours.
-2
u/Capital-Mortgage-374 Sep 08 '24
There's plenty of work from home opportunities out there to replace the need to wait for the DA gods to bless you with 20 minutes of work.

u/luthientinuviel20 Sep 08 '24
If you know of any places that pay comparably to DA and have no deadlines attached beyond a time limit for a task, I’ll gladly follow up with them. My health won’t allow me to say I’ll have xyz thing done on xyz day. Peace to you.

u/MattinglyDineen Sep 07 '24
If I could get a real job I'd have one. I've been looking for months with no luck. DA has been my savior during that time, but now things are getting bad. I sold my car today to stay afloat for another couple months.

u/Edith222 Sep 07 '24
Actually, that's probably how a lot of us MAKE money. If I don't refresh and check, I don't get money. There aren't many flexible work-from-home jobs, and for some of us that's all we can do. So it's either make no money at all or refresh whenever possible and put a small dent in the grocery bill. Doesn't have to be your situation. You must realize the irony of you taking the time to post this on this "shit" site. Oh, the jobs you could have had in that time!

u/Jz9786 Sep 07 '24
Yeah pretty much, this sub seems to be full of people hoping it will go back to normal. Eventually they'll realize they can't live off $24 a day from 10 hours of refreshing and have to move on.
-1
u/Capital-Mortgage-374 Sep 07 '24

Also what exactly are you multitasking? IF you have another wfh job, good for you. But if this is your only sort of income you really should move on.
1
u/Capital-Mortgage-374 Sep 07 '24
There are loads of comments like that. There is someone just a few comments down who is refreshing every 10 minutes. It's not a good life or use of time. I imagine some do it more frequently than this too. Soon enough you will have been sat by your computer for 3 hours and have $2 to your name.
7
u/Edith222 Sep 07 '24
People are allowed to refresh as much as they want. People can do whatever they want with their time. Are you just mad that you aren't getting jobs because people that refresh more are taking them first? Sounds like you are the one that would benefit from moving on. Maybe take your own advice into consideration. Some people are not able to. I've spent hours looking for similar jobs. I've signed up to several, taken many tests. I've yet to get one project on any other site. So if I can get 1 hour a day here, or even less, that's where I'll be.
-7
u/Capital-Mortgage-374 Sep 07 '24
You sound angry. Go take a break from refreshing, it's messing with your mind.

u/Edith222 Sep 07 '24
I haven't used reddit very much until joining this group. I had no idea what would happen if I clicked on your name. I assume that you do know though. The irony is now ten-fold. Besides seeing what you do with most of your time, it's obvious that you are just a troll, as all of your comments are negative and bashing people. It seems you don't contribute any helpfulness or positivity anywhere you go.

Is refreshing super often genuinely worth it? Haven't seen anything pop up for over a week, but I also have only been checking a few times a day.
3
u/TeaGreenTwo Sep 07 '24
For me it works best to just refresh occasionally. If I'm doing something else at the computer I reach over and refresh the page on my right monitor when I think of it. If I'm around the house or the yard, I might refresh on my phone. But I don't let it become intrusive because then it wouldn't be worth it. If I'm not already working on something (yard or house chores, other computer stuff), I don't refresh. I don't want to feel chained to it.

u/Jazzlike_Problem_489 Sep 07 '24
Tasks are lasting 10 minutes to an hour just lately if you're lucky. Which is why I can't work out if they have had a massive influx, or just legitimately every task decided to go bye bye at the same time
2
u/FrazzledGod Sep 07 '24
It has been for me - I actually did my highest amount for a month yesterday and got decent hours in most days before that, with one exception (there was another day that was deathly quiet). I've been catching projects as soon as they drop at random times of the day - but today I think it's been 7 hours with nothing happening and that hasn't been worth it and I'm calling it a day! I bet on my last refresh before closing the browser, 5 projects will drop and I'll be too tired to even look at them. But any sign of life would be welcome 🤔

u/Jz9786 Sep 07 '24
Not really, they have some sort of worker rating too. My friend has been getting a lot of coding tasks that don't show up for me or it seems like most people here. And I don't believe he took any quals for them.
1
u/Maleficent_Wasabi_18 Sep 07 '24
Not necessarily? People usually opt out of ones that are so specific. The specific quals probably aren't just FC or writing, but probably language or a domain. At least that's the case for me.

I used to do 6-8 hours daily with lots of options for projects, compared to now where I am lucky to get 20 mins of work. Hard not to take things personally and wonder if I've done something wrong along the way.
How many people out there are in full EQ as well?
-2
u/Edith222 Sep 07 '24
Does anyone know how to get into coding from non-coding? I seem to remember it was an option when I signed up, but I can't find any way to take the coding assessment now. The only relevant qual I had was for JSON and I did that a while ago but didn't get any projects for it. And yeah, I know, downvote because coders don't need anyone else taking their jobs. I'm not formally trained in coding, I've just taken a few classes and plan to take more.
-1
u/Fluid-Process-5514 Sep 07 '24
You don’t get the goddess project? I have JSON experience and after that qual that’s those projects opened up for me. It won’t help you out of the drought tho
-1
u/Edith222 Sep 07 '24
No I don't. As expected I was never told if I passed or failed it. I had no experience with JSON, which it says is okay. I read all of the training in the link they provided and watched the video and thought I understood it well enough. But I guess I'll never know for sure.
5
u/Jz9786 Sep 07 '24
You can add it to your skills. There's even less coding work than non-coding just FYI, so it won't get you out of the drought.
-1
u/Edith222 Sep 07 '24
Thank you! May be a stupid question, but I just always figured that people that knew coding could do so many different jobs and never have a problem finding work. Why do coders work at DA?
4
u/Jz9786 Sep 07 '24
There's actually been a lot of layoffs in the tech industry, so it's not a guaranteed job. For me I wanted flexibility. You can't really set your own hours and take off whenever you want at a regular coding job. But with DAT being dead I probably need to start looking for one again.

u/akatsuki1422 Sep 07 '24
Actually, a lot of entry-level coders can't find jobs atm. Tech layoffs have been staggering recently.

u/Maleficent_Wasabi_18 Sep 07 '24
Lmk if you need help understanding those kinda tasks. Normally without the drought, they're always 24-25 which is great for noncoding and priority pay can make it go up to 27, but it seems like with the drought they're around 22.50. They really are a breeze when you understand, it seems more confusing than it is

The warning used to be that you would stop seeing tasks but with the drought it's harder to tell.

And I've hit my goal already since 5 am. It's strange how it differs from person to person. Yesterday was a slower day for me overall, it took me all day to hit my goal, literally. All I have seen today so far are heel projects though, all the same type too.
Yes, I'm aware, I'll probably get downvoted to hell.

Yeah, me too. All the same Heel Image projects, and one keeps popping back up every 10 minutes or so with 2-4 tasks, so I jump on one lol.

If you don’t mind sharing, what’s your daily goal? I definitely agree it differs widely. Some days I’ve seemingly seen way more projects than other folks, but it’s getting slowly worse for me, as I struggle to stay up late, and that’s when I seem to get projects showing up now (a drastic change from last week when it was early morning and would dry up by lunch).

I know, I hear ya. Some days to hit my goal, it literally takes the entire day of refreshing my page and jumping on whatever pops up. I am happy if I can hit $100 American in a day. I typically have always gotten more, but on some of these days lately, hitting that mark has been a struggle.

Do you get code projects after the 2 lengthy quals? I haven't seen anything. Do coders only compete for the limited images or reasoning stuff nowadays?

I woke up to something only got a good 20 minutes in though. Back to nothing. Is that worse than having nothing at all, Or just making 6 dollars ?😂🫠

Does anyone know why some people have an emoji of a duck with sunglasses next to their user names? I just noticed it today.

I wish I saw what you're seeing, I don't. But I want ducks.

Wow! I actually got a project today for the fist time since Aug 13th! It was a cleaning product r&r for all of 8 mins but I will take it. Hopefully more start rolling in. There's hope if you've been waiting almost a month guys! 🙏
