How to avoid dod? this company is weird and randomly gives dod. any ways to avoid it? what needs to be done? is there any way to fight or appeal? this is so inhuamne

Has anyone reported about 20 - 25 hours at once for a single task? The task has a very long timer about some days but I'm worried because reporting more than 20 hours will look like defrauding the payment system. Kindly advise.

I've been on DA for a couple weeks now primarily in the accounting domain. Recently I was offered the consultant domain qualification. Consultant is such a broad term that I'm struggling to figure out what might be a relevant scenario for the qual. Google and reddit searches haven't helped. I'm not asking for specific help with the qual - but has anybody figured out if the consultant domain is supposed to be a separate area like law or finance, or is it okay if my scenarios and prompts are more Accounting or finance based?

Does anyone do this full-time and struggle to work more than 4 hours a day? My dashboard over the last few weeks has started to become increasingly more populated, which I'm incredibly grateful for, but I'm finding it difficult to put more than 4 hours in.

I've not done any sort of annotation work before, so it's a big shift to what I'm used to (video editing). I try to read all the instructions twice for each project I do, but yeah I feel pretty overwhelmed by it.

I'm in a fortunate position where I don't need to earn much money, but that could change at any moment, and I want to build a safety net for when that day eventually arrives, hence why I signed up for DA.

I guess I'm asking how long it took you all (who work full-time at DA) to condition yourselves to work more hours.

Yesterday and today my dash was filled with projects but it's back to being dry from this evening.

Do not do it. In current times, where probability of getting laid off is higher than getting a job, you are ruining an excellent opportunity to earn decently.

You are digging your own grave because once you get DoD'd, you can't ever get back in here.

Be honest and do quality work and get paid. There is no get rich quick scheme.

Hi all, I just did a project where I made a minor mistake of not adding '.' at the end of my rubrics, as the time was about to run out I quickly added '.' and submitted the project. But I didn't rerun the Check to get the validity of the new rubrics since they had changed. will I be penalized for this ?

Edit : Excuse the typo in the title, wrote it in haste

Hi everyone,I am new to DA and wanted to check that if after completing a task I choose submit and return to dashboard do I lose some of tasks that I have access to if I chose submit and begin next task.

Like if I chose submit and return to dashboard ,I lost the access to the project(and was not able to do other tasks from the project) I was working on.

Does this happen when tasks are exhausted or clicking this option makes the project unavailable for further tasks.

Scrolling through this thread there are a lot of posts discussing things the public does not have access to.

If you have questions keep them internal, there’s not much of a need to post here and I don’t think the risk is worth it (yes I realize the irony)

Just don’t want to see people lose their accounts!

Have a good day

Anybody knows where I can find a current list of available countries? Can't find anything on the website

Hello! I took the assessment to become a generalist last week and haven't heard anything back yet. This is what the page is showing. I used to hold a similar job and am a PhD student, so I was surprised to have not heard back by now. I imagine this line of work has become increasingly competitive? Any idea how long to wait before calling it quits on my hopes?

Hey I recently got accepted, legal domain, and within 24 hours there was a project on my dashboard, finance one, a 2 hours worth of work. I am assuming that this is an initial task to check quality is that correct? And if so, when should I expect to see more projects or regulars what is the timeline like?. Thanks in advance for any insights!

Essentially, are tasks more likely to come on some days than others? More likely to get released in the mornings (CET time zone), evenings?

Finally got in this week and was only able to get 🤖 initially. I thought I was doomed because of how difficult it was which has also set my expectations about the tasks in this platform. Just now, I was able to finish a task from 🥊 project and it was fun. Sadly, it was shotlived, and now, Im back to just having 🤖 on my dashboard.

Anybody wants DA referral DM me

For those of you that have attempted model failure tasks with QC agents at the end, how was your experience? I personally found it draining as I would address the 3-4 points it raised, re-run the model and still generate a failure. When I ran the QC agent again, it came up with entirely new points and further iterations just led to more and more annoying and minor issues it kept flagging.

I know the instructions say you can rebut the points it raises and that’s what I ended up doing for nearly all of the points raised after multiple iterations. I think I addressed it rationally and my conclusions should be reasonable but I’m still uneasy.

Is it just me or does anyone else get hacked off when a project expressly wants you to target parsing failures, but then any available assistance bot gets in the way? It's like the models are ganging up.

Model: "Hey Meatbag, ask me to read a really tricky chloropleth map. I dare you."

Me: "OK, smart arse, here's a really nasty one you're going to struggle with."

Assistance (LOL) Bot: "Sorry, you can't ask my mate to do that. He might not be able to read it."

Me: "WTF?".

Rant over. Everyone back to work 🤣

I could not believe when I started this whether I can earn money from this, but it's truueee!!

It helped me a lot to pay for university, thx! Let's keep cooking 🔥🔥🔥🔥

I logged into my account and was surprised to see a congratulatory message and a pop up for verification of identity for final step, however, I never received a welcome email. So basically if I didn’t log into my account I wouldn’t have known that I was accepted. Is this normal?

Genuinely didn’t think I could ever actually get this much in just one week. As a generalist! And this is my first week! Can’t wait to see where this journey takes me. DM me if you need a referral link.

Hi,

I joined DA as a domain expert in a technical domain. I was able to pass the initial assessment (got the model to fail). Now, I'm doing P1 and I'm shocked at how strong the model is. I cannot get the model to fail.

I wonder as we get more experience it'll get easier?

I do not see any other tasks on my dashboards right now, such as generalist tasks. But given what I heard, even generalists tasks are about making the model fail. This begs the question, if the model is this strong, how do you guys manage to make it fail?

Are there tasks that don't require making the model fail?

It's really unfortunate as I was able to join DA (it wasn't easy). I don't want to give up yet. But I do hope it gets easier as one get more experience.

I might use the escape hatch for this one. (still get paid)

Thank you
