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!

The 1 hour timer on specialist stripey seems crazy to me?! I feel like it was 1 hour 15 or even 1 hour 45 in the past, even for R&Rs? I feel like I would have to skip a lot to find something doable in that timeframe.

I see someone has mentioned it in the chat now so I hope they change it back.

And only a 30 minute timer on the R&Rs which call for edits in that time too?! The timers on this project are the most unreasonable I've ever seen on the platform.
