Comment on Ask HN: Can you comment on my job posting for employee #1?parent

Awesome points. I'll try to work in the day-to-day stuff. Good point about money. I'd like to avoid mentioning specific numbers and "commensurate with experience" is pretty lame. How about something like "Generous, competitive salary"? Would that work?

Heh, it's definitely a tricky one to spell out, agreed :)

If it was me, I'd go with a more personal touch, something along the lines of: "I know that good developers don't come cheap, and I'm happy to pay market rates for the right person."

Only thing missing is whether you're talking about permanent employee rates, or consultant rates, but it addresses the biggest of my concerns.
