    Having a shitty week overall. And after cooking dinner, I got bbq sauce on me not once, but twice. Sit down, try to do some c-sats before they expire... dip my wedding band right in the bbq sauce.

    Managing your time wisely is one of the most important factors for success on mTurk. You're not actively working on a HIT you're not getting paid and you're reducing your $ per hour.


    Also, 1.12 coming back in ~2 minutes

    Gotta look at it like a college exam when they say "select the answer that is the most correct". More than one can be right or wrong but you can only work with what they give you

    The overwhelming majority of research polls and surveys are designed by some dumb undergrad, usually unintentionally biased, and then manipulated by an academic adviser or doctoral candidate with an axe to grind to produce whatever result will look best in a dissertation.

    That's how I look at it but now they can say "X% of people use religion for guidance in their day to day life" and anyone who reads about the results without reading through the entire study (like most people) is going to have the wrong idea. I'm always skeptical of studies before I check the methods they used myself. I'm no expert at all but the number of poorly done studies out there is ridiculous. Either way, I think the problem most of the time is not what the researchers claim, but how people who are looking for something to prove (and sensational publications) interpret it.

    Thanks everyone for the encouraging words.... I’ve been turking for 13 months and I saw folks dropping their Sunday weekly total emails and I felt like I’m either not working smart or hard enough or I didn’t know something that the mturk elite know that I don’t. Sorry for venting..I felt like Vegeta when he found out Goku turned super Saiyan for the first time... [​IMG]

    Patience is key because he eventually became a super saiyan

    Thanks guys!!
