A nice comment is here: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2122865
Since you've tried 5 times why not take a little time
to write a more compelling job offer? Describe what the
person's responsibilities will be, what you're expecting
from a potential hire, what makes working for you cool
and worth while, etc. Write a little about yourself in
your profile. 5 failed attempts had to have told you
something.
Also the comment here:
http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2166468 First of all, who "hires" a co-founder? But that lexical
issue aside, the biggest reason nobody will respond to
this here is because nobody is interested working on a
mystery project without anything to remotely pique our
interest. You don't provide the slightest detail about
the project, or even what industry or problem it might
be relevant to. For all we know you are trying to get
somebody to write a Wordpress theme. Please provide
insight into your project or frame it in terms of how it
is useful or important to this community. Or stop posting
it again.
