Happy to report I'm unemployed again for the holiday season, which has the perks of not spending Xmas day huddled over a laptop with a plate of cold roast dinner while trying to deal with whatever nightmarish 0day has just dropped.
Having said that, I'm looking for any opportunities across the detection and response spectrum (incl hunt/engineering/misc) that can be performed from Hobart, Tasmania.
If you know of anything on the DL, please get in touch, this job market in general is horrific, I will take any leg up I can get.

Cholera is a preventable disease. Its appearance is often a sign of inequality, lack of development, or poor governance.
"The poor sanitation that has caused [Zimbabwe's] cholera outbreaks is linked not to war or earthquakes, but to corruption and mismanagement by the authoritarian regime that has ruled the country for more than four decades."
The last fruit harvest of the year: medlars.
Medlars are related to apples, but smaller.
They become edible after they've been touched by a frost or two. But when they get several frosts, they become mushy and (I find) unplesant to eat. I picked these at just the right time.
It's wonderful to be able to pick fresh fruit from my own garden in the winter, but I need to eat them pretty fast because they stay fresh for only a few days.
