Due to various reasons beyond the scope of this blog, I’ve had to quit my current job as a Programming Specialist at Position2. So, if you’re looking for a python / django hacker in Bangalore (although telecommuting certainly is an option I’d consider), drop me a line.

I’ve just bought a new Macbook and am busy setting up my dev environment on it. Things aren’t really as hard as I though they’d be. With macports, OSX doesn’t really feel much different superficially from any linux distro.
