Hidden HITs do nothing different for their servers or for us if you only scrape what is available to you. If you are scraping everything, then it just won't show those results, and other results are shown in their place, so you can possibly see more work avaiable to you, but miss the opportunity to inquire about those quals.
But doesn't it have to still populate those pages first to know how many there are? I don't know the steps but I just assumed that it refreshes the hits available then sorts those results, which would still query everything and assign it to a page, then just scrape the number of pages you designate.

Do any of y'all have any knowledge (or know anyone that has one) of the Samsung Galaxy J7? I think it's supposed to be a lower tech version of the S7. I've had an S5 for 20 months now and it's acting up all the time. I've been looking at new phones from T-Mobile and I don't have a lot of money to spend in the first place, but it looks like the S6 and S7s have batteries that can't be removed?
Having a phone with a battery that can't be removed when the phone locks up scares me as bad as getting trapped on an elevator!!
I know that this sounds trivial, but as a single mama of 2 little boys, I need a phone that won't get locked up and I'm not able to do anything.
Sorry for rambling, just would really appreciate any input on getting the J7. Thanks, y'all!
A hard reset can generally fix a locked up phone. Usually its a combination of power/volume/home buttons pressed at the same time. Google can usually point you in the right direction.

unremoveable batteries are only a risk in so much that if the battery itself goes bad, you're kind of screwed.

One thing is for sure, the main requester getting shit on by this new process will be Pirc. I doubt even he knows what the hell his screeners are looking for.

A friend of mine has this phone and it's basically a POS from what I understand.

Does HIT Database's projected earnings for the week include bonuses as well or just earnings from HITs?

The red is confusing me. HS scans a page, and then filters out w/e you have set to filter. You really shouldn't scrape more than 1 page, just adjust the amount of HITs you scan.

Side note: I'm like 50% sure HS is still inefficient and runs a scan on everything (https://www.mturk.com/mturk/findhits?match=false) when it should scan (https://www.mturk.com/mturk/findhits?match=true) if you have it set to qualified only.

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
my mom was italian and my dad is cherokee. i hate filling those out. especially when they won't let me check native AND white. i usually just go with white because it is easier. *shrug*

It used to search https://www.mturk.com/mturk/searchbar?searchWords=&selectedSearchType=hitgroups&qualifiedFor=on for the qualified search.
