Getting Started With Part-Time Development Work?
fortapocalypse writes "I'm getting paid a good salary as a Java developer and the hours are great. It is also very stable, which means something in today's economy, especially with a family to feed. However, I'm very unmotivated both because of the work that I do, which is boring, and because the organization I work for is highly political, disorganized, and lacks accountability. I've done what I could to try to change things at work and have pretty much given up on that. I want to go out on my own, either starting my own company or just working as a contractor doing Java development, but I'm not sure of the best way to get started, and my family needs the stability of my current job. I'd really like to start out part-time at 5-15 hours a week to use it as supplemental income (which my family could really use at the moment), but I really don't know where to start. I doubt many contracting agencies would be interested in a part-time worker. What would you suggest for someone in my position?"
It's best to double check your site for errors before whoring to /.

Uhmm, GTFO. Religion is a far worse cancer on society than abortion.
I have a problem with the argument that abortion should be legal because a girl might get raped, and she might not want to carry the baby to term afterwards. While this might be considered a legitimate reason to have an abortion, consider the statistics:
From what I can see, the above two figures come from reliable sources, meaning that about 0.00003% of all pregnancies in the United States are due to rape.
So my question is: why is it okay to make abortion legal and freely available in all cases, just to make it available for the 0.00003% that may have legitimate reasons?
