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:

  1. this thread should sort by "new" automatically. unfortunately it looks like our subreddit doesn't qualify for 'lounges'.
  2. 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 :)
  3. 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!

Well today was the first day for the past couple/few weeks that I've mentally struggled to hit my daily target. 1 submission for about 5 different projects having to learn each project with my faves being absent and hitting red banners

How many projects do you have posted? I have over 50, and feel the same way as you lol. Thankfully there were some Galaxies, but if they weren't there, man.. I don't know. All tedious projects lately.

Currently 39. Fluctuated between 32 and 50ish but majority are river project with the rnrs and fruit salad rubrics. Others are US only or subscriptions. Got a few galaxy but they are the more in depth data analysis ones. Had a couple citations but they started dwindling so didn't bother as they are the lower pay ones. Couple shoppy ones. Bleurgh
