I'm a hacker. I want a good idea, that I can keep working on until I get something I like, and not stop when I get to a boring part, but still feel like I've accomplished something at the end.

I'm a consultant. I want my client to give me a clear spec, the tools I need, and a wide-open timeframe. Then I want them to get out of my way. Good money would be nice, too.
