$150 might be one week's food.

  Or an hour's labor. After taxes.

    1) Not for a poor entrepreneurial student fresh out of college with a great idea but no track record. 2) Even for a professional, you can't get chunks of work exactly 1 hour long. There are huge set-up and tear-down overheads to any job, plus little issues like finding the job and getting paid. If you want to attract the next two MBA students, go ahead. If you want to attract the next two poor, clever hackers disinterested in a normal job - perhaps you have chosen the wrong approach.

    This is one of the main reasons why they are getting flack for it -- the $150 only matters to people of a certain class.
