Ask HN: How does an old timer find contract work
I'm 72 years old and have been programming professionally since I was 27. I’ve kept up with the times reasonably well, considering that no one can now keep up with more than a few branches of software’s evolution. Sparing you the history: over the past 8 years I’ve worked extensively with javascript, full stack, taught full stack at a bootcamp for a year, written a couple very large applications, and worked a bit on other projects.
I would like to find more opportunities to continue doing what I love the most. At this stage contract work ranging from ~20 hours per week up to > 40 hours per week occasionally is probably the best value.
Yes, there is a question.
How should I go about finding such jobs?
(Also, I’m unclear about how to briefly fit my 45 years experience into a resume format)
