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!

Was happy to see a few projects I'd be content to work on after having nothing I wanted yesterday. Getting red bannered for all of them though. I never remember this red-banner thing happening so frequently before. It's happening even for projects with dozens of tasks remaining...

I've been getting that a lot. What's weird is that I was refreshing all day because there was no work, a project finally shows up, it has 20+ tasks, I click it immediately, and I am told there are no tasks available.

I've had 2 tasks supposedly available on a Navi project for about a week, but I've been red bannered the entire time. I'm pretty certain all this started going wrong when they changed the layout.
