So, having completed the practice problem with about 45 seconds to spare, what sort of openings are there for the aging-but-not-aged Canadian who can probably only manage part-time remote work?

I don't anticipate us getting a lot of clients with budget for a part-time employee anytime soon, unfortunately. I imagine a lot will be remote, but probably not part time. Still happy to have you in our pool in case we do (I think I see you in the signups list - something about oddball proprietary languages, yeah?) but it's not a wildly high-probability bet in the short term.
I really, really, really wish I had a better solution for this sort of thing.
Fair enough, yep, that's me.
I do wonder how my “part time” output would compare the expectations from full-time output. During the periods I've worked more conventional jobs, the vast majority of the value I brought was during the oddball times/contributions. Surely there must be some way I can be exploited (in a good way) without implicitly bundling ancillary seat warming into the contract. :D
Incidentally, I didn't get a confirmation email; might be something to consider adding to the form workflow.
My email is the obvious one given my username, on the off-chance I made a typo.

It got submitted properly and looks like the correct email. Airflow - at least the plan we're on - caps the number of emails to different addresses that it'll send a day, so we hadn't set up confirmations, but I guess normal volume probably isn't a problem for that. (Woulda been fun today, though.)

I think it would certainly help to receive a confirmation email. Thanks!
