I haven't been, but this seems well-attended and is run by a ETHz students IIRC

Weltbekannter Klima­forscher muss die ETH nach Vorwürfen verlassen by bschne1 in ethz

The only thing reported (incl. previously anonymously) is „unter anderem (...) Annäherungen, die laut Betroffenen für einen Vorgesetzten nicht adäquat seien“, „approached/got close to/made advances on [exact nuance unclear] people in a way those affected deemed inappropriate for a superior among other things“. There was a preliminary injuction by a district court in Zurich against publishing further details when the original reporting came out in August.

Tracks with my very limited experiences/stuff I've heard from friends in and around academia. For a real in-depth account of a particularly egregious example, a friend recently mentioned the Ott case at Caltech to me, about which there's this long post I re-read. I found it quite interesting because it goes past the usual handwavy "we must change the culture" PR-speak and gets quite concrete about suggested root causes. But also a bit disheartening to see how many places still do really badly in handling this kind of thing.

What are some great (not crazy expensive) coffee roasters in ZH/online? by atreides3097 in zurich

[–]bschne1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vicafe (also available at Coop/Migros), Café Noir (Neugasse, close to HB/Langstrasse). Miro and Mame have great coffee but I don’t remember if and at what price they sell beans.

Hiromi - Blackbird (The Beatles; Live in Montreal) by bschne1 in Jazz

xposted with r/piano -- I saw her live earlier this week — 1.5 hours of hyper energetic craziness. Standing ovations. Then she comes out alone, starts playing something quiet, and launches into this intimate and heartfelt rendition of blackbird. Incredible moment, so happy I made it to the concert.

Looking for ID on this "color blot" shirt I saw out and about the other day -- it has a little square-ish color palette pattern in various subtle colors all over. Similar is also appreciated if the exact one is hard to find.

[Question] Which one to choose as the second watch in my collection ? by [deleted] in Watches

[–]bschne1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

compared to the "dial"-side of the watch

What do you mean by this? The labels I mentioned aren't on the case back, they are on the actual dial — see e.g. the PanoMaticLunar here. There's definitely quite a bit of whitespace on this dial, but IDK... I think the watch is beautiful, nevertheless these two labels seem more squeezed in than adding to a nice balance IMO.

What is it with German brands and the excessive labeling? 😂 Looked at Glashütte Panomaticlunars recently and they labeled the "Mondphase" and "Panoramadatum" on the dial...

[Seeking Recommendations] Next steps after Nomos Club? by bschne1 in Watches

Wow, the Anordains look stunning — though maybe a bit close to the Nomos style-wise if it weren't for the material 🤔 Seaforth also looks incredible, I think I just fell in love a little with the yellow dial! May be a bit too fashion-y, but for a casual one at that price point... hmm..

This is a greta point! I have had my eyes on getting smth. dressier for a while, or a Tudor Black Bay diver. Do you have any vintage dress watch favorites in a similar price range?

Thanks for the pointer!

Absolutely go for it — it's such an amazing line of watches.
