It depends where in Sydney you are. According to the statistics Sydney is very diverse, though in practice people from different countries, or with different professions/politics, tend to wind up in different districts.

oh, tharunka, the life saver in those boring lectures :)

I really miss Sydney (specifically UNSW and the eastern suburbs), but there is just no start up in Sydney. If you are a top CS grad from UNSW or USyd, there are only two options: Google or Macquarie bank (maybe three, but I heard that Canon research is not doing so well these days).
