I've never even heard of it! My wife was a barista in college though, so I'm sure she's familiar enough. But my family has a history of heart problems so I guess I shouldn't be trying too hard to get on the caffeine train.

Guess you wouldn't like Turkish coffee then. First husband was Kurdish and I learned how to drink it. Sugar, sugar and more sugar. Was in a very nice restaurant in the DC area once and the stuffy French waiter gave me a funny look when I ordered it. But his look turned to respect when he saw how I drank it.

Hi. I come with information.

I just talked to a director at MTurk on the phone who wanted to provide some reassurance and answers for us. Here are a few points that should help:
  • The new guidelines are not a new direction Amazon's taking. They're meant to be a clarification of the original TOS that was written almost 13 years ago, now with updated language acknowledging how workers work these days.
  • There will not be any mass suspension over people using scripts like they do currently. (I asked this specifically.)
  • People who will be suspended for script use are the same people who would have been suspended before. He told me directly: "they'll know what they're doing is wrong." It'll be people who are intentionally scamming, cheating, or doing things we all know are wrong.
  • I pointed out that some of the language is confusing, such as the parts that say using scripts to sort/search are okay but you can't be hitting the site too frequently. He acknowledged this and will get clarification on what "too frequently" means, but again repeated the above point about people who will be suspended will be those who who would have been before, who know they're doing the wrong thing.
  • I'm meeting him in person on Friday afternoon to get more information and ask more questions. After that meeting, I should have more detailed details to share.

Despite my best efforts, I just can't drink coffee. Unless it's one of those vanilla frappa bullshit things that tastes like a milkshake. I'm gonna be 30 years old next month and I'd still rather have chocolate milk.

Not even with creamer? I used to hate coffee when I was a teenager but then when I moved out of my parents house, I realized they used to buy the cheapest coffee possible (like Sanka I'm not even sure what it was. They let it sit in the cupboard for years because they didn't really drink coffee). I buy Cameron's or Dunkin' Donuts now.
