I would like the perspective of intelligent, unconventional thinkers
on a matter that has suddenly become important to me, so naturally I'm
asking HN.
I'm a homeschooling stay-at-home father of three living in Wisconsin.
I am preparing to initiate a divorce (for excellent reasons I will not
enumerate here). I have been out of the workforce for eight years,
and I'd like to retain custody of my children and continue to teach
them at home. To fund this, I can provide four hours of focused work
from home five nights per week and another 45 minutes of scattered
time each day to take care of half-brained administrative tasks.
Here are my abilities: I am a skilled Python programmer who also has
significant experience in C#.NET, Pascal, and Scheme. My past work
has focused on desktop and server-side applications. I'm an able
writer in English, and a former professional classical musician and
teacher who still performs on a high level.
If you were in my position, how would you maximize the income
available from my 4.75 hours daily work without delaying my departure
more than a few weeks?
