I was okay with everything posted 'til the "no benefits" thing.
I look at it this way: I like "jack-of-all-trades" jobs. Maybe you don't. That's okay, and not a poor reflection of PragProg. The combined sick/holiday time is okay with me, too, especially since you will be working remotely. I have a very similar arrangement with my employer (though I'm in the office several days a week), and I've never taken a sick day. If I don't feel too hot, I just work from home. Sure, you may get very sick, and take a few days here and there, but little stuff that might keep you out of the office in normal circumstances probably won't keep you from working remotely.
As for the benefits, I echo tptacek's sentiments above: give the vast amount of detail provided for the job itself, glossing over the lack benefits is a bit troubling (especially for someone like myself who is sole benefits provider for his family).
