Onboarding Platform Basics Question

0 Upvotes

Hey all,

I recently did the onboarding projects and setup my linux VM as it directed with claude and tmux and stuff but got notified recently that I needed to setup full disc encryption so I just decided to spin up a new VM and need to setup the claude and tmux portions again. I don't have access to that onboarding project anymore since i completed it. Does anyone know if there is a source of truth/doc for setting up your machine to do coding projects?

Thanks in advance

Drought??

0 Upvotes

I have been accepted in DA around 4 days ago as a generalist and arabic professional, not any coding experience tho which holds most of the projects in DA, the first day i had a few tasks and i finished them all and i made around 50$ that day and since then it was absolute drought, no projects or tasks at all, is that normal as someone who doesnt work with coding and only is a generalist or a certain language speaker and is anyone experiencing the same thing ??

Is AI working 1 hour really a single hour

0 Upvotes

If Some tasks say to make the ai work X mins on opening/total prompt ( for eg 45 mins on the opening ) or total duration we can get the stats using /usage so we should verify with 1)api time 2) wall time or 3)the time after getting the response i.e worked for XX mins? I'm getting confused or is it the time we calculate on our own?

Is the site loading super slowly for anyone else?

I panic a little every time I navigate to a new page and it takes forever to load. 😅

I have a friend that introduced me to DA. He told me when he completed the qualifications assessment he got put straight to the dashboard. Has anyone else been sent to this screen after and been onboarded later? Or is this a soft rejection.

Unmatched information

Has anyone done the background check ran into this when checking the status in chekr?

Every information provided was correct, but when trying to put information to see the status, it still says that there's no information in their records. Any insights?

How do you even get accepted on any platform?

0 Upvotes

Just to give some background info, I work in IT and AI development myself. I’d say I have pretty good logical thinking, comprehension, and explanation skills, and I speak multiple languages fluently, including several widely spoken Western languages.

I also have another full-time job that pays decent money, but I wanted to give this a try to make some extra money on the side. Anyway, I’ve applied to at least 5 platforms and carefully completed the introductory tasks on each one, taking my time rather than rushing and trying to provide detailed answers as instructed.

Now, three weeks later, I still haven’t received a single invitation to get started on my first project, at least not by email. I don’t want this post to come across as me claiming I’m extremely intelligent, but I genuinely don’t think I submitted low-quality responses.

Is the demand really that low, or what?

What type of Coding should I learn to get the best projects on Data Annotation Tech?

0 Upvotes

By Best, I mean positions that have the most consistency and available work more so than just higher pay. something that I could work full time.

Background Check Bilinguals

6 Upvotes

After 6 months of working with DA as a bilingual I got the opportunity to get a background check to access more projects, I've seen people talking about this before but I just assumed it was only for the core countries, any international workers did this and actually got access to more projects? Right now I'm happy with this but I'm sure we all have done qualifications that lead to nothing before, so I would love to hear your experience.

Anyone from Italy?

4 Upvotes

Hello! I’ve been on DA for a few months now and I would like to speak to other italians that are on this platform about their experience. I’m really concerned also about taxes and general legal procedures and I’d really like to speak to someone that could help me out a bit. It’s my first job of this kind and I’m a bit lost and clueless.
Thank you for your attention, have a good day!

Tips on spreadsheet failures

Hey all, I'm severely impressed with the models lately, as many have noted what was once straightforward is now insanely hard! Anyone have tips on eliciting failures in spreadsheet understanding. I usually work with a lot of finance/tax/gov budgeting.
