Ask HN: What's app/tool you would pay someone $1000 to build?

A fast Windows self-contained native DLL to input the path to a jpeg file and output the jpeg with background removed, like https://github.com/danielgatis/rembg does or https://www.adobe.com/express/feature/image/remove-backgroun...

I don't know about $1,000, but I'd (figuratively) kill for a way to remove all Twitter/Musk/GPT posts from HN.

Thankfully I've trained my eyes to look away without needing to grok the whole title, so I can skip this barrage of repetition.

Realistic electric / acoustic guitar synthesis that you can program via midi (so, no "generation from a prompt" a la midjourney, I want to directly program the notes and the style the guitar is picked / slided etc). I would pay 1000 for electric and another 1000 for acoustic. The current state of the art ranges from "not really realistic" to "pretty realistic, but only in a small subset of possible sounds you can get from a guitar".
