# Topic 3: New Zealand is a small world

I noticed from your profile that you're currently based in Dunedin and seem to quite like the place. :)

Your location, interests & a mention on your site about the local Makerspace makes me think it's probably quite likely you know https://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=Taniwha / https://github.com/MoonbaseOtago ? (Who I haven't caught up with for ages but I see is doing some RISC-V related things apparently?)

I'm also wondering if we might actually have run into each other when you lived in Christchurch around the quake times (as I did) because I do remember meeting someone who did Antarctic neutrino-related things at one of the regular local end-of-the-week tech gatherings... If so, it'd be an even smaller world. :)

Finally, I don't suppose you've got another of those Rust + firmware + NZ remote jobs/contracts lying around do you? :D I'm currently "exploring available work opportunities" but have almost given up on finding a role with even one of that trifecta let alone the whole bunch!

If you do decide to be "up for a change" with the eye-tracking thing feel free to get in touch if you're looking for someone to continue your current work. :D

Anyway, thanks for reading all my verbiage & I hope at least some of it was of interest. :)

Enjoy the cold Dunedin winter!




Yes, it is a small world after all! I'll email soon.

Sorry, my memory is pretty fuzzy, but here's a contemporary photo in case yours works better: https://icecube.wisc.edu/gallery/winterovers/#modulagallery-...


Nice, look forward to hearing from you!
