when I saw the @weirdunits post yesterday about carrots per ohm I spent about 30 seconds trying to decide whether or not to actually go measure a carrot for a laugh, and I'm glad I did because the results were actually way more interesting than I expected. so there's a lesson. always go do the silly thing.

yesterday's weird discovery is that every regular sized carrot I have tested is almost exactly 100kΩ end to end with sharp probes stuck in it. a couple of them come out at 100.0k on the dot.

do I know any infosec folks with experience in industrial systems who are looking for work?

one of the companies I interviewed at before accepting a job elsewhere has a big heap of industrial security assessment work upcoming, and not much in the way of internal resources to handle it, so there's an opportunity for either a contract or permanent role.

UK based, remote work, possibility of international contracting.

hit me up if you're looking and I'll pass on your details.
