05/06 - Seven Eight Saturday!

Awesome, I have a guy screaming at me, SCREAMING, over a policy I did not create. Yeah, sure man, yelling at me is going to do anything to help you.

 

There is a lot going on today. It's Free Comic Book Day, playoff hockey in two hours, then the Kentucky Derby, then boxing. It's gonna be a long day. Don't think I'll be turking much.

 

Hey guys, my finals are over and I am back. I know you've all missed me so here's a bonus email just to clear your teared up eyes:

Greetings from Amazon Mechanical Turk,

You've received a bonus from Prof. Dan Bartels for work related to 3IQ9O0AYW602204PNKUOTBZ1XMJTI3.
The value of your bonus is: $10.00 USD

The Requester included this note:
Hi!

You are receiving this bonus because you participated in a study called “Evaluations of Self and Others” last week (HIT ID: 3IQ9O0AYW602204PNKUOTBZ1XMJTI3). As part of this study, you were told that 25% of participants would be randomly chosen to receive an $10, and you have been chosen!

We have selected ONE of the allocation choices you gave us in the study for you to enact in real life. This allocation is:

Give $1 to a version of your future self in 5 years.

We would like you to enact this allocation by actually giving this amount of money to your future self. Because we don’t know if your future self will match any of the specific versions you imagined in the study, you can fulfill a general version of this allocation by simply putting the dollar amount above in savings. Although we cannot make you do this, our intention was for your choices in the study to be real choices with real consequences. So if you would like to fulfill this intention, please follow through by saving the money.

Thanks again for participating in our research!


Thanks for being a Worker on Mechanical Turk!

 

On weekends, my PE is $30. But looking at today, even that's hard to achieve.

 

Could anyone link me a batch I can do some of today? I'm at 500 accepted HITs.

 

yeah figuring time of to raise kids and such I just go with 23x12 could be more could be less

 

500 more and you can do CI's, but there's probably not much up right now without a closed qual.

I am doing it as well. Time doesn't bother me because I am doing it while talking to people on the phone anyhow.

 

Yeah I'm half assed studying so just taking anything that looks semi-reasonable without too much effort. Like I mentioned I'm using remote desktop which makes typing and clicking a little slower than usual, so when I get back home the future studies should be a breeze, making it worth it to me.

 

weekend batch dance

I won the bet or w/e on this last month and got $15 bonus

I'm taking a lil break so I can get some real work done, everyone enjoy and makes lotsa money

 

Day off was a complete success.

Finished adulting for the day, other than keeping the kids alive. Considering working, but it looks kinda dead. But the kids will leave me alone if I'm working. They will not leave me alone if I am playing video games. So the real question isn't do I want money, so much as do I want to play referee between fighting kids for hours when it could be easily avoided.

And with this I have revealed my real motivation for working as hard as I do. To hide from my own children.
