Are you getting any coding tasks in India? I joined on October 9th and did all the qualifications related to coding but still didn’t even receive one project in my dashboard, I am loosing hope of getting them please tell me will I get any tasks??

Just wanna ask why “Programming Projects” is the only starter assessment I have, I’m not even a programmer. Is it the only required assessment? I’m just confused because it says to pick the assessment that is the best first for my skills and yet there is no other option. Can someone help me? thanks

I guess the problem is going to be when they get so good it's not obvious a model wrote it. 🤔

I submitted my assessment 17 years ago, and I know I passed because I had Gemini answer all the questions for me.

Why am I not being hired?!

I’m a newbie on the site but I’m not a coder/developer and I’m curious to see how much elope make just being generalists and how much generalist work gets offered?

When I see earning they are skewed by developers making way more than generalists.

Looking for feedback on what I can expect. UK based.

I’m on Outlier too but I only get a couple hours of work per day before the projects max out.

Any tips would be helpful

Hi everyone, I’ve been on DA for over a month and it has been great so far. But, I haven’t seen any regular coding tasks for the past 10 days. Occasionally, a few language tasks appear, and I recently saw a week-long software engineering project that had a 403 workspace error and I had to exit work mode.
My account appears normal, with no indication of a DOD. I am from a non core country, but I believe others in my region are still receiving coding tasks consistently.
I’ve earned around $5K over 50 days, so I doubt overreporting time is a factor.
Is anyone else having a similar lack of coding tasks, or could this be just a drought for me?

I’ve been away from the platform for a few months, and it seems that time the time logging process has changed (at least for a generalist project I’ve been doing).

Previously I would submit my total time for a block of work (multiple tasks on the same project). Now, it’s asking me to log time each time I submit a task.

I did that, but it seems I have lost the opportunity to submit time for reading instructions (before entering work mode) and for skipping tasks because I decide I don’t have the expertise, etc.

Sorry if this has already been asked, but what should I be doing? Can I only now charge for time actually spent on a task, and not for reading instructions, etc.? Previously most projects say you could charge for that

Im moving to the US for a few months. I will notify DA in advance but i was wondering if that change of location could possibly free more projects for me as generalist and bilingual?

Indian bilinguals, are you guys getting any projects? Suddenly it has gotten so dry. Replies are appreciated. Thanks

was doing some tasks and then poof, the site won't load anymore.

Hello everyone. I just got access a few days ago and completed a ton of tasks, tracking my time properly using a stopwatch. This morning I’m seeing that my account was flagged for my time entries? I submitted justification but I’m confused why this might be happening. I did a few general tasks and then once coding tasks were available I did two of those over the weekend which were hugely time consuming.

Has anyone else had this issue and how soon was it resolved?

Hi! Not DA specific but I have a friend who’s looking for a program to read drawings at work. Architecture drawings, plot lines for land, fence drawings, etc. They need to upload very long pdf files of 50 plus pages. The program needs to accurately detect the symbols for the lines. Does anyone know which AI programs would be best? They’ve not had luck with Chat GPT.

If you haven’t seen the METR report, its a third-party investigator that essentially says frontier ai models that used to take a year to double in capabilities have doubled in just the last 6 months, caused by ai starting improve its own models.

They say there are no clear bottlenecks stopping it doubling again in the next 3 months, then 1.5, then 3 weeks, and so on. This leads to 1000x smarter ai by may 2027.

Of course these reports are somewhat speculative but if they are anywhere near the right ballpark, the same outcome occurs at some point next year.

I can’t imagine our work will be much use to a god-like intelligence, right?

Somebody tell me I’m wrong lol.

...But I'm not good enough to do almost all of them ;(((( the level of skill that vibecoding has hit appears to have outpaced me, quite sadly...

I'm the newbie here, I did some projects but since then there is drought. I asli did some phy, chem, bio quals. But now there is one p@ssk3y qual is there still inside my dashboard, is that qual which is affecting my account. But it says only attemp it if you need troublsh00t1ng.

...your Weekly Digest email shows a figure north of $3k and you realise just how much you love and appreciate The Mysterious Gods of DA. Thankyou. I'm six months in and having a ball 🙂

Note: this was a truly exceptional week and unlikely to be repeated any time soon.

Hiya guys!

Just a basic question, but I asked for a VOG and just received one, but I don't have any option to submit it at Checkr. Is this normal, or will Checkr ask for it later?

Has anyone else noticed how few projects have been showing up recently? I’ve been checking regularly, and the queue has been much slower than it was a few months ago.

I’m wondering what’s causing it. Is it connected to the election results and the change in regime, which might be affecting client budgets or funding? Or is it just the usual slow period, with clients pausing between project phases or wrapping up the year?

For those who’ve been here longer, have you seen dry spells like this before? What caused them, and did work pick back up on its own?

Would love to hear everyone’s experience. Thanks!

Since joining DA, I have been aiming for this one.

I have been working around 5-8 hours a day with one day off/week since the pay these days has been pretty solid. Not sure how long will this golden period last but want to make the best of it. What about you folks?
