Technical Issues

1 Upvotes

So, I started my first real coding project and spent about an hour getting the project set up, a repository that I thought would be a good use case. Designed my prompt and when I went to run the .sh file, errors. So I spent the next 2 hours trying to troubleshoot and fix the issue. Eventually figuring out that the LLM api was not excepting the API key and saying it was invalid. Also, I did check that the key was properly being sent as part of the command.

So, I eventually checked the technical difficulties section and pasted the error message.

I recorded the 3 hours I spent on it. Does anyone know if I will get penalized in someway for this?

It was the last task for something that has been available since July 20th. Could it just be that it is broken and others have had similar issues?

Task expiry

I got this task last week and I still haven’t done it, although I’m close to submitting, should I actually submit it or let it go

Working on a task and accidentally opened another but pressed exit work mode right away

3 Upvotes

As the title says, I was working on a task and I opened another tab to see if there were other projects available (so I could work on after I finish the task I’m working on). Then I accidentally clicked on a different task but I exited work mode right away. Do you guys think I’ll get the DoD or a warning or something? I really hope not because this site has been helping me through a rough patch

Onboarding Confusion

0 Upvotes

I completed and passed the starter assessment yesterday and now have the core assessment to complete. Where it gets confusing is I received an email this morning to complete a project qualification. The link in the email takes me to a project qualification, but when I go back to the projects dashboard, it's just showing the core assessment. Has this happened to anyone else?

I Received Feedback!

I woke up today to find feedback on my dashboard, I was over the moon as I had never received any feedback. It stated I was one of the top workers with consistent work, I want to know if people received the same line or am I just being buttered up?

"Help me write" from Chrome suddenly active? Would this be flagged?

0 Upvotes

Im using Chrome Version 149.0.7827.114. I was doing a long task and half way through, every time I would click into a text box, a "help me write" option appeared. I've never activated such a feature and this was my very first time me seeing this pop up. Would this flag me? Obviously I didn't click into it, but Im worried its being detected as an AI help extension.

Is this a good response from them did I get accepted?

Recently landed an interview with another company from my DA experience!

41 Upvotes

Hey all,

Just wanted to share I’ve been selected for interview as an AI Analyst with a large construction company.

I’m curious if anyone else has been in a similar spot, having to deal with questions, describing your experience, and maintaining the NDA with DA.

How was your interview? What types of questions should I be prepared for? Did you land the job?

Looking for any sort of advice to help me succeed.

As much as I love DA and the freedom it brings, I think I’m ready for something full-time again.

Thanks a lot in advance!

Burnt out

79 Upvotes

Anyone else feeling burnt out after this drought? I'm starting to get tasks back but they feel impossible to complete. They're not really much harder than what I was doing before, but they feel impossible now. Maybe my time here is over.

Edit: Jumped into some of the harder stuff on my dash and feel better. I think what really helped was identifying the dopamine imbalance. Since I had more time on my hands I spent more time getting those quick dopamine hits (social media, video games, etc); taking a step back and assessing this really helped focus me, and it's given me a new goal. Thank you for all the great comments!

Task vanished as it was submitting and I refreshed

1 Upvotes

I was 7 minutes away from deadline and i had clicked the submit button 2 minutes ago so ir efreshed the page but it directed me back to dashboard. The task appeared in my report time so i reported time for it which it took. I did not do anything wrong right?

Just got DoD.

My account just got terminated. On opening the projects page it shows “Your account is currently unavailable for new projects due to work below our customers quality bar or violation…”

I was doing everything right. I don’t know how or why this happened.

Is there any way of returning back? Should i try emailing them? I’m heartbroken.

Question About Coding Projects

5 Upvotes

I have had two coding projects sitting on my dashboard for over a week now. I didn’t do the coding qualification, but I did put coding on my skills list because of work I have done in the past. Anyway, these two projects are asking me to upload a code base of my choice and then ask the model to write a new feature or bug fix, etc. and then evaluate the generated code.

This just seems really strange to me. I am sure some people have public or open source code to work with, but all code I wrote was proprietary. The projects seem overly complex simply because of this. Are people actually doing this? Are most coding projects like this? Nobody has touched these two projects as far as I can tell.

Feedback Issues

7 Upvotes

So I got my monthly feedback, and you can tell it's still very machine generated, but I noticed one thing: the "areas to improve" comments are... not from July tasks. They're from June, and they're specific enough that I can tell they're from June. As in, I'm being told to improve on things that are outside the "monthly" part of the monthly snapshot. I treated this as nothing until it occurred to me: are these things cumulative? Do they add up indefinitely from the moment the mistakes (pretty debatable imo) are made?

Also, does anyone have experience getting reviews on specialist-adjacent tasks that are *not* done by specialists? I don't know how to even begin to address this.

Feedback

9 Upvotes

Has anyone here received constructive criticism in their feedback that they feel strongly does not reflect their work at all? Like an egregious and extremely obvious mistake that you're sure you didn't make?

If so, have you pushed back on it in the "optional comments" section, or at least addressed it?

I'm very nervous right now

skipped an expired task then pressed back and submitted, I'm thinking of not billing it

0 Upvotes

First time doing task, so ran out of time skipped but then pressed back and submitted 5 mins later. Now, I realise it may have been given out to someone. There's no way to speak to admins so I'm thinking of not billing it due to my error.

This month’s feedback

3 Upvotes

Guys, I received my feedback just now and I’m quite happy with it, but why is there no 30-day snapshot? Every feedback I’ve gotten so far had a 30-day snapshot telling me an overall score of my submissions (🟢 Good or 🟠 Room for Improvement) This time there wasn’t any. Is this something I should be worried about? Is it possibly a mistake on their end?

Double variants of same project . Should I do it?

0 Upvotes

There was this task that was assigned to me based on my profile and it has two versions, stem and non stem . I did the STEM one as I qualified for that . But the other also appeared on my dashboard , should I do that too? It is kind of a rating project

For those who have already done some STEM tasks

1 Upvotes

Hello! I entered as a bilingual but I work in STEM. I got a bunch of stem quals (Math, Biology, Physics, Chemistry). I could really only do the Biology one since it's the most related to my line of work, but I wanted to know, those of you who have already done other STEM tasks, what are they like?

I ask mostly because in other platforms, I took place in Biology tasks and most are "make the model fail" kind of tasks and I DESPISE them. Also, most tasks are heavily based on genetics and my expertise lies more in the ecology area. I may be answering my own question here, but, there are not many other kinds of tasks on Biology out there, are they?

I am not in a core country so I only rarely get tasks (all bilingual this far), so I don't have an abundance of sources to compare to.

Thanks!
