Hey :)

I'm a scientist (mostly maths / ai and comp. sci.) working for a
commercial mathematics company called Biarri.  I think i have an
amazingly awesome job. www.biarri.com
Get to do something different every day, great team and lots of
freedom and almost no bullshit bingo buzzword crap that seems to
common. My last few jobs were pretty crappy but this one rocks. :)

> very well.  Yeah, I'd like to work for Google, but who doesn't right? :)

Not me. Biarri over Google any day. I'm not a big fan of being, to
quote Stalin, a little cog. I find small companies a lot more
unreliable and random but more exciting. As far as free software goes
though i've moved away from doing anything really. I spend my free
time with my band and my guitar. :)
