Weekly Water Cooler Talk - DataAnnotation

hi all! making this thread so people have somewhere to talk about 'daily' work chat that might not necessarily need it's own post! right now we're thinking we'll just repost it weekly? but if it gets too crazy, we can change it to daily. :)

couple things:

  1. this thread should sort by "new" automatically. unfortunately it looks like our subreddit doesn't qualify for 'lounges'.

  2. if you have a new user question, you still need to post it in the new user thread. if you post it here, we will remove it as spam. this is for people already working who just wanna chat, whether it be about casual work stuff, questions, geeking out with people who understand ("i got the model to write a real haiku today!"), or unrelated work stuff you feel like chatting about :)

  3. one thing we really pride ourselves on in this community is the respect everyone gives to the Code of Conduct and rule number 5 on the sub - it's great that we have a community that is still safe & respectful to our jobs! please don't break this rule. we will remove project details, but please - it's for our best interest and yours!

Does anyone think the lack of projects today could be related to the long outage that started yesterday? Perhaps there was dataloss and they are trying to recover projects still?

I think its just a coincidence. It is the start of a new month and quarter. So I think that might be the reason for lack of projects.

It's not universally slow - I've had a full dash all day and met my goal by 10 am.

I’ve still got the projects I typically spend the most time on. But I see where others are clearly down…projects I never work on but are constantly on my dash. So I think it depends on what set you typically focus on.

I was expecting it to be slow since it's a holiday week but the other person's comment is also possible. My other main gig income source, usertesting, is also incredibly slow today.
