Yes, with some reservations. We met as one part-time business was failing, although he brainstormed ideas with me to try to make it work, and even came into the office on a few occasions to help out. He was supportive for four years, while I was getting a half-time masters degree, and while I wrote technical books (at the same time as a full time job and half-time degree!). Although recently I said, only partly joking, "maybe I should go to law school..." and he was like (only partly joking) "Do you WANT a divorce?" So he does have limits! But he's always been supportive of me flying to conferences, giving talks, running workshops, not being there in the evenings because I'm busy with one thing or another. He's even taking a few days off in January to go to a conference in Texas with me (he's not technical, so he doesn't actually go to my talks, but he can keep himself occupied around town, and we turn it into a mini-vacation in the evenings). I give up a lot of weekends to freelance work, and we've discussed the possibility of me starting another business -- he's totally on board with it, despite the fact that I tried it once already and failed, AND having experienced firsthand how much time it takes and how much it will disrupt our lives. He doesn't understand most of what I do, and was never interested in understanding it (I've offered to teach him how to program, or show him code I'm working on -- he's always like "nah, that's your job"), but I couldn't ask for a more supportive husband for the things that really matter.
