I wonder if it makes sense to approach job search through hobbies and side activities rather than just by past employment history.
In my free time, I do #microbiology. I have a #biolab in the cellar with petri dishes and microscopes and all. I ferment #olives which grow in my tree and make pickles out of them, I make two kinds of #sourdough bread from a culture I extracted from quince fruit peels from my own tree, one wheat and one #rye.
I do #mycology. I have some 2,000 photos of wild #mushrooms in my Facebook photo albums.
I do a lot of software-defined radio, I have more #antennas than I care to count, and also more #SDR modules than I care to count. I stream radio data directly to my own #ElasticSearch which I can visualize in different ways in Kibana.
I do home automation, and the house has countless sensors and cameras. I use #HomeAssistant for this, with lots of modules I have implemented myself, for example for scraping data from my Huawei solar panels and graphing their historical data.
I have a home #Kubernetes cluster with many nodes and several public-facing services with some 99.9% uptime like a local Mastodon instance and also a #Matrix instance, in addition to lots of local services.
I am a data archivist and I have lots of stuff backed up locally if the internet goes down like it did during the notorious #apagon in Spain.
I play strategy games in Playstation, some of my current favorite games are #Stellaris and #Tropico6. I just like resource optimization over time.
I grow vegetables and some fruit trees. Trying to get really hot chilis growing here as they aren't readily available in stores. I have eaten the One Chip Challenge without even wincing a bit. I am a #ChiliHead.
I administrate all sorts of online communities and web pages. I read a lot of books and whenever I get into a new domain, I tend to read several definitive reference books of the topic from cover to cover. For example I now know more about #cancer biology than I ever thought I would.
I used to take a lot of #Coursera courses, also in non-technical topics such as #virology, #BrainPhysiology, #AnimalBehavior and such.
We have 3 cats, 2 siamese and 1 rescued as a kitten from the neighboring empty plot where he was born.
Ask me anything about these things!
