Tell HN: Missing service – StackOverflow, but with monetary rewards
There is a market for technical questions that few people _can_ and/or _want_ to answer or work on.
When you need to do research for hours (or even days), you are of course willing to spend a few bucks to get your solution quickly, and get on with your project.
- So you would describe your technical problem, as usual.
- You would then set your monetary reward for the accepted answer.
- You could increase your monetary reward if answers are lacking or coming in too slowly (the list of unanswered questions could be sorted by "reward").
- To make your start easy, you could import your StackOverflow "karma" (points) into your new profile.
