Ask HN: Would you answer Yes or No questions for 5 cents a pop? Why or why not?

Ironically, the people that said "No" just answered a binary question for $0.00. So, does that mean their answer is "yes"?

Dont be so quick to draw the QED tombstone!

The OP is asking about answering questions plural as a low paid freelance gig.

Someone who cuts their grandmas lawn isn't saying they want to cut everyone's lawn for $5 each.

No. It means they are willing to do it for free, not for $0.05.

If you do something for free, you show you are a nice person. If you do it for $0.05, you show you are poor or a cheapskate.
