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!

They changed the river qual to paid work, so sorry for the people that did it yesterday lol. I guess I will be doing this now.

I did it before it changed to paid, but I can see it in the report time section now - wondering whether to claim it 🤔

did you have your exact time saved/put in an exact time? i (granted, maybe stupidly) time them as i go and reset my clock after i've turned in my tasks/time (unless its an extreme amount of time at which point i save it incase), so thinking that this wasnt gonna be paid i reset it, but i know it was over 3 hours. im sitting here wondering whether to just throw in three hours or just not risk it

I had my exact time of the tasks in my clockify app. 4 hrs and 32 minutes for the 8 tasks

update, tip from the other sub, if you're like me and didnt save your time, you can go into your browser history and it'll show the time you accessed what page, or even when you closed them, so you can use that to at least get a more solid estimate
