This doesn't make any sense to me. What do you get out of it? What do you require of said hacker? Do want partial ownership or just someone to bounce ideas off of? What do you mean by in-residence combined with we-don't-care-where-you-live?
There's really not enough info there for someone to decide if it's interesting or not.
What do you get out of it?: Great products/apps
What do you require of said hacker?: Build Interesting Stuff
Do want partial ownership or just someone to bounce ideas off of?: Partial Ownership.
What do you mean by in-residence combined with we-don't-care-where-you-live? It means you're a part of our existing company charged with acting & creating like an entrepreneur. Basically you get a salary to work on your cool ideas.
Ok, now I get it. You're more or less looking to hire a zany creative person to bring in some creative energy. Which is cool.
That said, in my opinion, the suspense, and really, the hard part, of being an entrepreneur is figuring out how to get a business to fly. Ideas and implementing them is the easy part. :-)

My feeling and experience has been that you have to iterate through enough ideas until you find one that actually works. Good ideas fail too.
Process most people follow: Step 1: Great idea Step 2: Find people to build it
Process smart people follow: Step 1: Great people Step 2: Find something to build
Process only stupid people follow: jump into something without having any idea what it is.
I think the poster means well, and good on him for that, but there needs to be more information if he wants to attract folks.
I'm adding info from feedback. This is a new idea for me so it's difficult to anticipate what people want to know.
Also, I'm not exactly stupid, just willing to take a risk.
Oh, I wasn't implying that you're stupid -- just that anyone would be to get particularly excited about your idea with the original info. :-)
Gotcha. I'm hoping to flesh our more details from feedback.
