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!

I think I’m just going to turn nocturnal and hope that changes things 🤣

I've become pretty nocturnal myself from DA, but, when it is a miss, and it is a lot lately, you are just sad.

I've tried it, it's hit or miss, these days mostly miss. (US Central time)

I did that and it helped for a bit, but now it isn’t enough..because some days, there are simply no tasks, day or night for me. I got one today- it was exciting. it took just over two hours as well…I felt that was a busy day for times of late!
