You aren't. The reason I'm on HN so much lately has more to do with my disquiet about work than anything else. That is another flaw, I am a trace of a worrier.

That is another flaw, I am a trace of a worrier. :P I did try that for a year [straight partnership, the project I was working on required more than just a developer]. It went poorly, mainly due to my poor judgement in the partner combined with the fact I ignored my instinct about the client. He actually made slightly more than me on that particular deal. That was actually what finally convinced me to switch to being an employee for awhile. I think I just need more time to figure out other people before I try that sort of thing again [hence hanging out on HN].
