I have a bad taste in my mouth after returning that $6 math hit. It really bugs me that math (in general) wants problems solved in specific ways, when I can get to an answer doing it differently. It's like math class all over again. Why does it matter if you use a different method to get to the answer if it provides you with the correct answer?

I don't think they really care how you get the answer. But they are testing their software which does care that you follow certain steps.

Made 60 yesterday, that's double my min for a day. I think I can justify a day of games and shitposting.
Not desperate enough to do surveys yet. Maybe tomorrow.

Yeah, I know :( I did all of the steps to solve the equation, it just refused to accept my work because it wanted the problem solved in a very specific way lol.

Did the same thing yesterday.
Can I join the camp of sad math hit returners? Seems like an adequate place to go after that mess lol.

Me too! Such a good movie. :angelic:

So relieved to be told I was given the "difficult" math problems to solve. Would've been depressing if I did that badly on the easy ones.
I didn't even bother continuing. I managed to solve one when they gave me 3 minutes.

I had no choice but to continue. Once the lure of money is raised, auto-pilot kicks in and things just happen on their own.
