I like to look at problems people post. I'll help if they are easy to grasp
and obvious (ie it is easy to help them), or if they are interesting
problems (ie I'm personally compelled to solve the problem). This isn't
obvious enough for me to want to take a stab at it, and I don't understand
it enough to know whether it's interesting.

Generally, answering questions or making suggestions (ie about how you could
make it easier for people to help you) doesn't constitute obligation from
me. If I wanted to obligate myself to something, it would probably be Shoes
or Sinatra, something that I've benefited from and that gives back to the
community.
