05/19 - Wicked Weather Wednesday

Not to Grinch, but there isn't much that doesn't hurt. I have RA and spent almost a year in a wheelchair. It's almost like pick a day and throw a dart. Some other problem.

 

This will drastically reduce the amount of good, worthwhile work you catch.

Requester watchers are what you wanna setup to grab stuff from specific requesters

 

This one.

Especially if you only have 2 monitors, I know when I've spent a day looking at one more than the other lol

 

That's wild. I figured as slow as it is this is the only way I'd get hits. Any other tips or settings to avoid?

 

The relief is so good, it's like pain jesus reached out and touched you.

 

*tries to un-crooked everything like @Hummingbirdee *

 

I don't have any suggestion other than this Pain Jesus guy is apparently great.

If the app is trying to accept a $5, $50/hr survey and a 1 penny pickfu comes across it's going to ditch attempting the vastly more important HIT for that trash because by far the biggest indicator of ability to catch a HIT is how new it is. There are some tolerances built in to not make that perfectly true but it hopefully gets the problem w/ settings like that across.

Similarly.. let the app do the work. Don't go creating pandas from the forum (which is why its not easily/straightforward supported to do so), they're pointless if it was worth accepting the app probably already tried anyway and it will let you override it so you'll reduce how much it can do on its own

Legit don't be afraid to let it idle with "0" pandas on, if there are no "active" pandas but it's on and in a reasonable work state it'll continue working pandas in the background, including a select network where other QBC users who return high value HITs can be accepted into your queue (more or less).

If you're touching anything but the workspace more than 5 times/day you're doing it wrong (mostly.. super users know how to bully past some of the weak points ofc)

 

No, but I do get shoulder and neck pain which turns into elbow pain on the special days.

I wanna keep going, but I'm getting burned out. Tomorrow's another day.
