Can I pay someone to re-create Hackernews for a niche? Maybe we can partner
Looking to build a niche news site that is run like Hackernews. I'd like you to build it as close to possible, with the algorithmic ranking, karma, assign users to edit/delete stories...basically the works of this little big gem of a site.

- creativeone 15y agoThat's the current hackernews in code? Big ups! I didnt think there were any because i hadnt seen any copy-cat sites around.
- xorglorb 15y agoNot sure if it's the current version, but it's from August of last year so it's pretty recent.
- creativeone 15y agoMaybe i can learn to hack it.
- creativeone 15y agoI have about zero skills. I am now considering taking a "webmaster course" where id learn php, javascript, css, etc... In the meantime i'm in the military and dont have much spare time. Interested parties please shoot me an email benbakhshi at gmail
