Re: Solve the halting problem, $300-$1000
#2An expert team of 70 Webdesigners can get this done in no time. Edit: this is actually an interesting demonstration of what happens if the sales people are disconnected from engineering. I've yet to see a big company that doesn't do the equivalent of this. Slightly more professional, but still the same thing.

#3i like the last post response:
As the superior German programmer I am I've already solved the problem in my head as per your specification. I'm able to deliver a solution in source code in any language that can print a line of text. If necessary, I can also provide flowcharts and a solution on solid German-made paper.

#4This is a good demonstration of why you should only outsource things that you could do yourself but don't have the time to do. Never outsource something you don't know how to do (at least not if it's a core competitive requirement).

This response must be from a HN user -- i guess the response is actually a pun. :)

I feel that most of these responses were made by bots.

One time I outsourced the creation of a simple Wordpress template which I didn't have time to do. I paid $300. Despite being given a pre-cut Photoshop file, the people could not figure out simple CSS bugs or even create the CSS necessary for the tabs. I spent more time managing them (aka teaching) than it would have taken me to do it, in the end I had to do half of it anyway and this entire sick ordeal took nearly two weeks.
My new mantra is "Don't outsource anything the neighbors' 10 year old couldn't complete properly."
