07/21 - The Tempest Thursday!

[Matilda Jones]

I just had to email a requester who had a $1.50 survey up that they estimated would take 1-2 hours.

ok well forget that stupid question, here's another. I literally cannot focus my eyes the last few days as in im like two feet from my monitor, Unless i close one eye, double vision is so bad I cannot read whatever is there. Does this happen to anyone else from looking at the screen too long? Like where it's still there the next day? Sorry for my randomness.

Not sure about the hispanic question as I had the same thought. As far as vision goes, usually anything that lasts 24 hours you should consult with your MD or eye doctor.

There've been times where things have gotten blurry in one eye to the point where I couldn't focus, but it usually lasted a couple hours at most

Hit enter after captcha on UW. Ugh.

TO mentioned the same problem and the email back from UW said they were fine and not to worry about it. Might want to do it just in case.

I did that too and sent them a message. It hasn't been rejected or approved yet, so idk but it won't hurt!

Eye problems. Yup, can relate. Pretty sure my eyesight has gotten worse in the past year just from working.

Yeah that is what I did. Also was extra observant that all bubbles were filled. Either way as long as they don't mass reject that's fine. Though I hope they build their batch more friendly next time.

It's a good idea to give your eyes a break every hour when you're working on a computer all day. Also if you have corrective lenses, I find I have a lot less eye strain wearing my glasses over my contacts.

That sounds like it could be more than just eye strain. Might be a good idea to get it checked out.

This is a really stupid question I'm sure, but where I live (and ex husband) were mostly from mexico, I thought of hispanic though I know they aren't interchangeable, so for the twitter photos hit, if they look hispanic and not obviously something else also are they white and hispanic or other and hispanic?

I usually go with black hispanic or white hispanic. I don't think it's a stupid question - i'm hispanic and had to figure out what to say for surveys that ask for both race and ethnicity, since I always just considered myself hispanic lol

Reject from UW Social Media Lab HITs TO looks like it was just from not clicking every button for one HIT, so I'd say just be careful and things should be fine.

I'm still waiting for mine to be approved. :/

thanks...glad I wasn't the only one it wasn't completely obvious to. Other seemed like a weird choice, but I just wasn't sure.

Are the categorization HITs from Research Project relatively safe?
