I'd prefer if HN didn't become filled with dailywtf or best-of-craigslist like posts. Was this thought-provoking in any way, or was it an excuse to be smug about other people being smug? We can do better.

- jefffoster 18y agoOn reflection you're right, we can do better! I deleted the post, apologies if that is "bad-form", but in my opinion better to undo the mistake than let more cruft accrue!
- msg 18y agoI upmodded you because I agree with your broader point. With better anchor text I would've liked this more. Maybe it is a sign of the times, or maybe it's about whether or not you can really pay like crap and get autodidacts to take a 50-hour per week job. Another thing that's interesting is that they're not interested in bids above a certain level. Even if you're not willing to pay, wouldn't you want to learn about the skill level of people charging more, in order to gauge your market?
