Nothing remote that Im aware of. I talked to the guy about opening a franchise because i liked the idea so much. My area is already claimed so it wasn't going to work out. Could be a good fit in Huntsville, seems like all those smart people would want their kids to learn to code.

I was surprised that there wasn’t one here already

Awesome dude. I knew you were a political analyst (or something like that)

That’s how I work to. I fuckin hate writing software, but I am good at writing algorithms. I pass the algos to the software guys

I'm an economic consultant but my background is policy.

Part of your sales pitch in my world is access to certain softwares. REMI is a big one, but that cost on order of 30k plus a month. But you still need some base to feed it, which is where I come in with the R programs.

Really interesting thread here shmitty:

Good Software - Program for God

Program for God. There are only two legitimate reasons to program: for money or for God. Atheists can replace "programming for God" with "programming for the craft". God simply reflects goodness. ...

It's an enjoyable field that has the ability to drive you to drug abuse.

After working on the outside for a number of years now, I'll never go back into the fast paced underpaid world of legislative process.

Yeah I did the government thing about 10 years. Worked for a small contractor for a couple years and about to go to work for a much bigger contractor

Its nice now because I can rotate my time between being at the office or the house. At the house I'll blast some music by the pool, grab a beer and start coding for a few hours.

Like I'm doing right now.

Zero remote work at my new place. I’ve been stuck at the house for a while, so I’ll be glad to get out. But I’ll prob miss the option in just a couple months
