So earlier this week I completed a project that involved submitting some personal items. There was no timeline given on when the extra pay would be distributed. Has anyone who took part in it gotten paid or know what the timeline is?

What does this mean. I've signed in but no messages. Not sure whether it's linked to future projects perhaps. I signed up for a couple.

I got prompted to check my background, but I am not willing to do it due to various reasons (mainly privacy). I am certain that I would pass it, Im just not comfortable doing it.

Will I get locked out of all projects?

Hey, I’m quite new to the platform as a coder. I passed all the qualification and did a training project. But I’m locked out of all projects to do the background check (which is understandable) checkr is honestly being insanely annoying for me and I’m honestly starting to think that it’ll never clear. I want to know how other people in the Netherlands found the background check. Maybe it’s not just me.

Hi, I’m from India and was accepted into the coding domain around 2–3 days ago. I’ve already completed the two qualification tasks and the background check. Initially, I had only one project on my dashboard, which I completed, but since then I haven’t received any new projects or additional qualifications.

Is this normal for new joiners, or is anyone else experiencing the same thing? Also, how long does it usually take to start receiving more projects?

Guys-- I've seen warnings from multiple different projects/Admins to stop leaking project details n shit. Not even code names. Not even codes of code names. They even specifically call out Reddit.

There's still a DoD fever that's sweeping through our ranks. I'm taking it seriously and tightening up my own language. You should, too.

I did the initial assessments yesterday and was almost immediately accepted and was able to complete a few tasks for about 1.5 hours. I’m waiting to see if anything about my submissions is flagged but is this normal and does it bode well for me?
I’m not sure if they changed policies to accept people and then give payouts after manually reviewing their application, so that’s why i’m asking. It felt a little too good to be true.

Just reviewed a submission in which it was clear that no effort was put by the worker. The person wrote a rationale of literally ‘less than 15 words’😭😭. How do such people get in ?

is there any coming back from this? i submitted my justifications, tried to be clear about where i worked hard and where i made mistakes. if its over its over but i really enjoyed working with da

I am a CS student and have built or studied multiple projects in the last two years. But I don't have much exposure to open-source apart from pushing my own projects to GitHub or looking at projects built by my friends and classmates.

Now when I need to source repos that have a large number of files, I couldn't find any end-user applications with necessary licenses most of the repos are frameworks, tools or libraries. I am having a tough time understanding them let alone working on them.

I am not asking for an instant solution to work on a project right now, I am ready to spend a month or more learning how to work with them. For those who are working on them, could you tell me how you reached there?

It's been great. I see all the comments and things about DAT. I'm going to continue to work and be consistent until they decide otherwise 🤷🏾‍♀️

They truly are! You get to see the good and the bad. Don't share project details, but what are your thoughts on R&Rs?

There was a project that asked for my SSN.

It said that I needed to provide it so they could do a criminal background check, in order to regain access to a bunch of projects. I have had very little projects since it showed up.

I am in the coding sector of this.

I'm currently working on a project that seems to assume everyone has access to Slack. I tried making a slack account and then clicking on their join link, but that did not work. From reading around, I get the impression I'm supposed to be part of a general Data Annotation slack page that then lets me get on to specific projects. I looked back in my e-mail and found an old invite that no longer works. Who do I contact about getting a new Slack invite so I can actually report errors for this new task? I'm super frustrated.

I was working on a rate and review that included Spanish text. I needed to use a translator to understand the text in full. Unfortunately, the first one that popped up was ChatGPT. I immediately exed out, but I’m afraid it probably flagged my account. I emailed admin with the task ID.
Any thoughts about this?
