That's funny to figure out after so many years. Maybe I've already known and forgotten it.

Save enough to pay your taxes, and to tide you over for a few months if the contract ends suddenly.
If you don't ... you're screwed!

Seconded, it's very easy to get carried away with your new found mega bucks, if you do your sums and calculate how much you need to set aside for tax,sickness, holidays , pensions etc.. you will be on a par with PAYE workers at best , but YOU ARE FREE - I've been contracting for thirty plus years ( still at it ) and wouldn't work any other way BUT !!! you have to do it properly, Get yourself a GOOD accountant, set up a business account to seperate your expenditure and keep receipts for everything . Good luck

Once we had an accountant here, but he ran off.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Do you think I would ever have let him near my books?

Good on you ! I'm sure you shear them sheep tenderly.
I'll probably need that loan pretty soon.
cheers, Bill

I thought DLR let you truly interpret .NET code?
Instead it's just more fancy wrappers around the compiler it looks like?
This means I can't support syntactic predicates or code behinds in my grammars at run time.
Code in the grammars would be limited to generated code.
Which *would* be acceptable except for the fact that the code makes the grammars work in the first place.
Meaning any code in any grammars renders the grammar unusable to the runtime parsers.
That's not okay to me. Why doesn't .NET let you interpret code finally?
I don't need a lot of it. Just a few lines here and there.
But now, because of this, if i were to support it, I'd need to make an elaborate caching system so as not to overrun the app with temporary assemblies, just like before the DLR came along.
Am I wrong?

It's not clear what you mean here...
the
"dynamic" object (which is a keyword for anything implementing..err.. some interface I forgot and has a powerful default implementation) can already call most method and property at runtime. You can also provide your own implementatino.
There is also Emit to generate code at runtime.
It's unclear here what is your beef, but I suspect you are wrong....

I'm not worried about how to generate code. I'm worried about the architecture of Win32 loading a zillion tiny DLLs into the process space over the course of my application in order to enable dynamic compilation

i wanted a way to run small amounts of code without any compilation going on. that's all. interpreted. like JS is.

Well.. What about reflection then?
You can call any method and any property. It doesn't emit any code / create DLL. It's "slow" as well. Perfect!
An example.
Under the hood XAML and Razor access random object's properties with that.
