10/21 - Silly Saturday!

A real challenge to a work manager that juggles tabs automatically is that in Chrome, a tab loses its handle on another tab that it generated if that tab changes its URL (which is something that happens every time you submit a HIT). Nonstandard behavior, but it's the behavior of the most popular browser. So that's a major sticking point for me, since it messes with how I imagined I'd put together the tool.

It's easy to see why Chrome decided to do it that way, because it can be a security issue.

Otherwise, if you later choose to open your bank account in a tab that happened to haven been opened earlier by a script, that script could access any bank info you can see on your screen.

So I have to decide whether I want to do it differently, or force people to work out of Firefox instead.

 

Nice!! Easy peasy. Took me about a half hour, which included going back over carefully to make sure I didn't miss any questions. Sure enough, I caught one that I skipped!!

 

When I just tried to submit it they wouldn't let me because it said I missed answering a question. I then answered the one I missed than it let me submit. So maybe they have something in place now that makes sure you answer all the questions?

 

Just because you are slacking doesn't give you any right to get mad at me.

 

I keep wanting to get one, but I don't think I would actually use it.

Totally. Even though it took me longer than most of the other ones, I liked playing detective.

Do you happen to have Google's Data Saver extension installed? It was breaking tts for me somehow the other day, so I had to dump it.

 

can someone summon the good batches? if it doesn't pick up soon, I'm going to have to clean my apartment....

 

Another win for separate profiles - only run Data Saver in the profile you use to work your HITs.

That way, you get the benefit of Data Saver when it would significantly decrease loading time for a HIT, but no compatibility issues.

Data Saver breaks HIT Notifier, too, so I don't have it running in my "finders" profile.

 

I just have an install of chromium instead. It is da blue

 

Works decent until you want to make more than 2 browsing contexts.

 

I don't see the need for more than two tbh.
