"Hundreds of workers" is such a tiny proportion of the people working on mTurk, especially when you consider the long time scale it takes to...
I think it's reasonable to assume that there are significantly more shady workers than shady requesters: [MEDIA] I've worked online since 2011,...
You're interpreting data incorrectly, because you're not considering enough layers of context. Consider this: Who is more likely to take the time...
Bandwagon fallacy. Funny. When I see several hundred people leave high pay reviews for a low-paying requester, I marvel at how the majority of...
Being from the Pacific Northwest and living here most of my life taught me to hate rain. Living in Salt Lake City through my adolescence taught me...
I don't trust TO ratings. They're meaningless noise. I don't even run any tools that display TO ratings anymore. Some of my better requesters...
PHP / Python / Perl / etc. would only really come into play if you were building a website-based tool like Hit Notifier, TurkerView, TurkOpticon,...

I did it because it was one of the requirements for my front-end development certification on freeCodeCamp:...
Welcome to Tic Tac Toe. I hate the game, too, but my hands were tied when it came to making the game interesting. Blame freeCodeCamp for...
Suck it up, buttercup. The alternative on the other end is creating a CPU that will never let you win. Wouldn't you rather win all of the time...
Anyone wanna play Tic Tac Toe against a drunk CPU in order to feel superior? https://codepen.io/,/pen/oppvGr
I mean, ultimately, everything is useless if you eventually die, right? So at least it's no more useless than everything else.
It's a pointless calculation anyway, because it's missing a key piece of data (the "before" approval rate), which we're just filling in at 100%....
If you're assuming they were at 100% beforehand: x / 99.2 = (x + 1) / 100 x = 124 So you'd be looking at 124 approved / 125 submitted / 1...
