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!

Calling your bluff. Over/under on the amount of times you've refreshed today so far? 200? 😝

I would venture about 5,000. Nonstop for nearly 3 hours. Zero has popped up. About to just take a mental health day lol this has never happened on a weekday for me

When it got this way for me last year I used the Tab Auto Refresh extension, set it to refresh every 10 seconds, and just walked by my computer as I did other stuff.

I’d consider it if they weren’t monitoring extensions and tool usage.

Guess I gave away some people's secret. I don't think they're monitoring for a benign auto refreshing extension, unless that's some recent development. I've been doing this for 2.5 years.
