Ask HN: How to outsource?

In my experience, writing a 'good' specification is as much, if not more, work as writing the code. If you write it at too high a level of abstraction, the programmers will probably not implement what you really wanted.

My situation is that I hope to save money as often as I can and from time to time maybe outsource a part of my project every so often when it's more beneficial to review and integrate outsourced code than it is to write it myself.

It's not like I'm going to put out a request for something like "build me an invoicing system." I think it's agreeable that it's too much for one inexperienced developer to try to build large, complex and robust systems. And, I don't want to be one of those guys who pays you in equity or IOUs. This is the closest I can get to what you're telling me to do.
