02/11 - Maybe Monday?

When the initial caption is gibberish (I believe those are written other turkers *stink-eye on them*) or when the 5 AI completions are just as good or better than the human one, it's impossible to get them right. If you can't stay above a certain undefined success level, you get de-qualed, oh the ignominy!

thank you for today's english lesson

 

Bots have been a real problem on MTurk lately, and data quality is suffering. This screener is meant to weed out worker accounts which, for whatever reason, produce low-quality data.

 

OMG guys, if you haven't watched Happy Death Day, you can now see it on FXM (log in through your tv provider) or just catch it on TV on Thursday, FX is starting to show it. Then go watch the sequel Happy Death Day 2U - the whole set of movies is freaking AMAZING. I haven't had that much fun in a movie theater in a long time. Had me thinking, laughing, questioning, laughing some more, with one or two jump scares. It was just beyond words. Even if you think it isn't your type of movie (it's billed as a slasher), the first one is also half rom/com with a touch of sci-fi, and the second one is primarily comedy/sci-fi with some slasher/horror/comedy.

Think Cabin in the Woods but with a super kick ass female lead.

 

Didn't realize you can sort TV reviews to some other criteria by default and have a dark mode.
Don't mind me.

 

You guys ever get so wound up from the work day that even when you're finished you can't stop thinking about squeezing some extra pennies instead of like playing a game or watching TV? I hate that feeling. I just wanna step off but also want to grind that extra $$$

 

Make yourself step off. You have the drive now, but that's what leads to burnout and a few weeks/months of not wanting to work at all.

 

All the time

 

I think turking shares pathologies with some compulsive addictions like gambling. I was feeling resentful earlier today because I could log in and earn a few pennies.

 

I feel that. I kind of treat MTurk like a game when I'm doing it, and then when I'm done and make dinner I end up resenting playing games because they don't pay me for it lmao.
