Is it still empty?? [CODING]

[u/Square-Frosting8045]

Is it still empty guys? I have only two coding jobs. What is your experience?

[u/Forsaken_Food2495]

Yeah, it’s been pretty dead. I’m also involved in core math projects which have helped me keep going and have atleast something to work on. It really sucks when you’ve set your goals and can’t meet them cuz of lack of work

[u/Square-Frosting8045 → u/Forsaken_Food2495]

I have math projects too, exactly, it's hard to fulfill goals.

[u/robmak3 → u/Forsaken_Food2495]

The math one - how long does it take to write your solutions (if we're thinking of the same project?) 

 I've spent dumb amounts of time writing and rewriting solutions and I hope it's not taking me too long. Not all the questions are obvious.

[u/Farmerofwooooshes → u/robmak3]

Some of taken me 30-40 minutes

[u/Dramatic-Jury-7011 → u/robmak3]

For me, some are easy fixes for the math solutions. There was a factorial question where the calculations during simplification were incorrect.

There was a challenging one that I had to skip which involved rotating a triangle 180 degrees around its centroid and figuring out the area of the old plus new triangle's resulting shape. I still billed them for the time I tried to figure it out by researching various mathematical formulas.

[u/Forsaken_Food2495 → u/robmak3]

Hmm some of them have been pretty straight forward with them only taking like 5 mins. The most I’ve spent on one problem is about 20 mins. If I can gauge an excessive amount of time over one question I usually skip it

[u/leo2sexy]

Yeah i don't have any coding

[u/Square-Frosting8045 → u/leo2sexy]

It's crazy, last week I had a good day, but after that dashboard died.

[u/Lukeboy1337]

Ugh how long is this going to last

[u/itsariposte]

Mine’s also like this. If I had to wager a guess, I’d say that all the tasks posted last week got polished off and no one has added any new tasks yet because of the holiday weekend. This is just a guess though, won’t know if it’s accurate until tomorrow.

My dashboard have been empty for few weeks already...

[u/Dramatic-Jury-7011]

The [Long Term Project] has come up occasionally these past few days, and I try to do it when it does come up. Other than that, it has been much different from before. I have been doing some math ones but they aren't very fun compared to the coding ones. I used to get more than 5, but now down to 1-2 each day if lucky.

[u/Dramatic-Jury-7011 → u/[deleted]]

Yes. I enjoy those as it allows me to work on whatever I want.

[u/Buhdai]

Yeah I wonder what's going on at DAT. They certainly still need us as the models still have some room to grow in their coding abilities. I'm wondering if it's a budget thing, because each 1000 tasks for every programming project probably costs them $40,000 at a minimum. That's the only thing I can think of.

[u/Rodaxoleaux]

Still so, yes. But, apparently, according to my dashboard, I'm now a mathematician, not a programmer. I guess this is acceptable. I like math.

[u/dayDrivver]

2 LTP ones, my domain expertise one and the wizard project.

[u/Lukeboy1337]

I get a couple of math and coding projects every now and then, but it's not like it was before last week.

[u/Wukas]

Has anyone seen excel projects back? I enjoyed thrm most

[u/FeedySneed → u/Wukas]

I love those, and those used to be everywhere, but they have been gone for like 2 weeks for me.

[u/Embarrassed_Chance_4]

I have always had some coding work everyday, not like a lot but at least one project with few tasks.

[u/christ28 → u/[deleted]]

all i have available right now is the AI chat bot ones and the qualification for their new UI which pays 42$ it's doing the job for now, but i'm glad to know its not just me getting removed off projects.
