"Tell me if you are not easily replaceable then how come every time I ask for hackers I only get about 5 emails but if I ask for business founders or idea guys my inbox goes DDoS?"

I don't know where you are asking for hackers, but any time I've posted an ad for developers, my inbox is filled within an hour.

"is just another bullshit buzzword, as are "vision" and "culture""

Not really. Without vision, most hackers will never make it past the initial stages of development. I'm a developer (and I run a few startups).

I can't tell you how many technical people I've tried to partner with that either: can't see my vision, get bogged down in the details (IE: only want to work on the cool things), or just don't have the follow-through (give up after X amount of months for whatever reason).
