Can't Find Good HITs? 9/26

thanks took 3 minutes!

 

did anyone do the $1 ETH DeSciL HIT? I did it, but its not showing up in my dashboard. I'm kind of upset right now

 

Me too. Also, I had to walk uphill both ways to school in the snow.

 

Yep, it is showing up on mine

Here is a trouble ticket that ETH DeSciL has up for if you had problems with one of their hits.

 

I did it earlier this morning, and I can see it in my dashboard. Although it is still 'Pending Approval'

 

I thought I would be able to finally add something worthwhile and you beat me to it!

**Directions say 20-25 minutes, I will update the time when I finish.
EDIT - got stuck doing some actual work at my job, but this can be done in ten minutes most likely.

 

Holy Wow! Batman! We are so giving up our age... I had the C64 and the the C128 and C128D - the TRS80 was trash! Spent more on my first 300baud modem than I did on my last laptop with built in WiFi!

Do you remember punter protocol?

 

How about an Apple 2e? Long long ago

 

50 cents for 5 minute Scene Categorization Academic Study

 

Only had Apple at school... Remember "LOGO." Talk about turtles!!! What the hell was that language for anyway? It didn't do anything but draw geometrical designs as far as I remember. But it was fun to play with then - I was about 9... That and "Logan's Run" - the game... I actually remember the Commodore VIC-20 - but was real young then...

 

My first MODEM was a friggin' acoustic coupler and I could read faster than it could transfer data.

I had a laptop when they were still called 'clamshells' and had LCD screens...

I still have warm fuzzy feelings toward the Amiga OS.

Nerd, nerd, nerd.

 

Did anyone do the Hit last week where you watched a graphic video "Dangerous Driving" by Applied Psyc Lab?

Just wanted to remind you if you did to look for the follow up email from them to complete the second part so you get paid for the HIT. I just finished it and it took 8-10 minutes.

Lol I have an Amiga Emu on my psp. Nothing like having a handheld amiga everywhere I go =]

 

Don't knock LOGO. It taught a lot of kids how to write procedural code. In fact still exists, and is now a Turing-complete functional language - I have used it to teach kids to program.

Teach them how to write their names procedurally, then teach them how to create functions that create each letter to teach them about function calls and code reuse, etc. etc.

 

My "first" real girlfriend had the Amiga 500... I was up to a 8086 by then... I was so into IBM clone - I just hated the Amiga. But it was cool!

This is so off topic guys / gals... Sorry....
