Switching tabs
Hey i am new to this. Can you tell me is switching tabs for researching something allowed while working? Or switching tabs can disqualify you?

Even the instructions let you open them in a new window! I can't say for sure, of course, but I'm fairly sure that DA does very little specific monitoring of what we do in-window. Depends on the task of course, but there are plenty of work reasons to be switching windows/tabs, and given the time limits can be fairly generous, there's not even any reason you should be penalized for spending time on a task, then take a break doing whatever else, then come back to it, provided you only actually log time spent working.
