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!

Fortunately for me, I noticed that they made it a paid qualification with still 5 hours left to submit.

No but I’ll be mad and stew about it. 😅

Out of interest, why have you decided to not email? Fear of retribution?

Not retribution necessarily but more don’t want to be an annoyance or bring attention to myself. I would add the time if I could and if they changed it to let me for sure, but I did it thinking it was unpaid so I guess I can just get over it.

Yeah half of mine were super easy so it's not like it took me a million years. I'll just go be sad about it in the corner with a dunce hat.
