12/12 - Trying Thursday!

Participants on Prolific aren't workers, nor should we attempt to pay them a livable wage. We don't think of Prolific as a crowd work platform, after all, and neither should you.

 

Will View Prime come with a free stream of The View?

 

Forget the montessori/reggio method. You got the Mothra/randomacts method

Ugh boooooo. That totally sucks!
I had the same thing happen to me a month ago and I'm still annoyed by it.

 

These hits are exposing my clear bias for dogs with tiny legs

"We're concerned about the low money people make on mturk. That's why we won't allow people to pay less than $8 for an 80 minute survey."

I still do side work on Prolific, but the people who run it have no clue why they'll never directly challenge mturk despite the fact they seem to think that they are competition?

 

Hm.. this would be reasonable if the fee was like.. nonexistent. $6k hurts my soul jesus

 

I was thinking the same thing

 

They don't have to win, they just have to keep marketing aggressively to siphon off millions in US VC funding.

 

Fair point. I guess if you pretend that you're competition, it doesn't necessarily matter that you aren't.

 

The fact that they're "competing" with and standing up to big bad evil Amazon is just more brownie points in terms of that, as well.

 

Tbf, they were doing $500,000/mo in transactions before they got handed $1,200,000 so.. they're not exactly doing poorly for themselves.

Academics don't really understand these people aren't just their colleagues from across the pond and are just marketing to them.. mostly just completely oblivious to common sense/reality.
