As the last grand act of my career as a student @uzh_ch I today submitted my Master’s thesis. Many thanks to my supervisor @flurin_condrau for both his guidance and giving me the freedom to develop my own ideas.

Great new video by Adam Neely is on Bluesky now with serendipitous timing, describing the feeling I experienced the days after handing in my Master's thesis. I termed it "submission whiplash". Now the question is: What's next? youtube.com/watch?v=_42od2…

If anyone finds the time, I can highly recommend choosing a piece of media they've consumed years ago and revisiting it. It's incredibly interesting how sometimes the same but often different elements resonate with you at another point in life.

For all that haven't had the chance yet: Be sure to check out 'Sound of Metal'. No necessarily the most festive movie, but a very human one.

The Problem With NFTs youtu.be/YQ_xWvX1n9g via YouTube Incredibly well researched and presented insight into the world of cryptocurrencies and NFTs (something I only observed from a distance so far and this further solidifies my decision to have nothing to do with it.)

I love finding New Yorker cartoons so dated that the joke is lost entirely and the cartoons become just descriptions of people doing normal things.

With Day 1 in the books, it might be time to announce that starting today, I will be joining the IBME as a PhD student in History. Feeling very excited and a little terrified, but I'm sure it'll be interesting.
