Lovely. Citizen watches are fantastic.

Fair, but there are many hikes in the Front Range that are flat with little elevation gain!

Right?!! Why would I go to Nebraska to hike?!!!

Absolutely. And if you like high quality inexpensive watches Casio is king. Their watches look incredible and are amazing performers IMO. Timex has stunning designs as well.

They used to have this giant Nebraska tourism billboard right in central Denver and I always found it so confusing

Today I'm wearing a Ratio Freedriver GMT which is legit one of the best deals in the watch world (a decently made automatic GMT for $US200 is almost impossible to find). Ratio is an incredibly good value.

Yeah the trend is for larger watches but there's plenty of sub-40mm that one can find (I have a smaller wrist, so have to wear smaller watches mostly)

Sure! Chinese mechanical watches are incredible value and many of them are really nice watches (Seagull, Boderry, Militado, San Martin). But also microbrands can deliver amazing value. (Dan Henry, Vario, Islander, among many others).

I mean they are luxury goods so the mark-up is ridiculous. But you can find smaller brands where the markup is reasonable IMO

Daniel S. Goldberg @profgoldberg.bsky.social · 7h

Dress watches? Or watches in general?

Daniel S. Goldberg @profgoldberg.bsky.social · 7h

I like regular nylon straps tho! And agree re sub-38mm.

NATO straps are dumb. And this movement to sub 38mm watches is annoying. That's essentially a bracelet that tells time at that point.

Also, if we're doing unpopular watch opinions, I gotta say I find men's dress watches in general to be exceedingly boring. BOR-ING. What are y'all's watch hot takes?

Maybe an unpopular opinion among watch nerds but I vastly prefer manual winds to self-winding automatics. It takes ~8-10 hours of wear to fully wind many self-winding watches. I can fully power a hand -wind watch in about 30 seconds. Plus the tactile feedback from winding is awesome.

Hi @rjelevi.bsky.social sorry to disturb but I had a question about the IAQ machines you use if ok to ask

Ohhhh wow the difference here is stark IMO. I was in Dublin recently and of course it's basically sea level and very humid and I noticed how little I needed to drink water. Completely different here. Thirsty all the time. Dehydration is like super easy and common.

Daniel S. Goldberg @profgoldberg.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

Ugh I'm so sorry. The only way I can stay hydrated in this here High Plains Desert is to carry around a giant flask like everyone else

Daniel S. Goldberg @profgoldberg.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

Zoom works well IMO. I use it all the time and the ed tech folx at my university also recommend it.

I’m in DC scheduled to give this talk today. But the organizers flagged slides in my deck that mention racism, structural gaslighting, New Jim Code and other themes that are off limits in the Land of the Free.

Came back bc Prof. Ha's work was close to mine--his new project was on blackness and Indian Ocean Islam. I had a series of negative interactions with him after Oct. 7, read the room, and quietly added him to my blocklist, non-reviewers list, and refused requests to give feedback on his writing...

For sure would be so good for the game especially as we head into a lockout

Daniel S. Goldberg @profgoldberg.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

Yeah they are really strong at the foundations, much like the Brewers in the NL. They could win whereas I don't think any other team in the AL could have won even 3 games from the NL pennant winner

Daniel S. Goldberg @profgoldberg.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

I don't put much stock in All-Star games as a measure of relative league strength. It's a snapshot and that's not how we measure quality in baseball IMO.

Daniel S. Goldberg @profgoldberg.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

TB is legit. Everyone else in the AL? Nope.

Daniel S. Goldberg @profgoldberg.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

The AL is just ridiculous, I'm sorry. The White Sox are a nice story but there's a good reason most of these teams wouldn't have sniffed the postseason before playoff expansion (which I support!).

Again, it is almost impossible to overstate the stupidity & bad faith involved in using "salary four years after graduation" as a metric of the worth of majors or degrees, let alone - as US News & World Report did in epic bad faith this year - as a criteria for ranking universities & colleges.

In light of recent events in Russia, I spoke with @npr.org today about the international law that governs information sharing early in outbreaks, along with the wonderful as ever Larry Gostin. www.npr.org/2026/10/08/n...

npr.org

Global guidelines for sharing illness information date back to the 1850s

International Health Regulations mandate that countries share information about illness that may affect people beyond their borders. It's being put to the test after a Russian plague researcher died.

Watching people in salaried, benefitted jobs try to figure out alternative health insurance options because even their employer-subsidized plans are now too expensive... feels real bad, man. Things are bad.

Long advocated for assessing Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) beyond the family level, incorporating community-level adversities like discrimination, violence, and poverty, because these stressors disproportionately impact racial/ethnic minoritized communities and impact health outcomes.

What is your favorite thing about @sophianyx.bsky.social's posts? They are so skilled at framing super-inviting prompts in few words. It's amazing! And I love how it pulls in folx from all over the Sky to share their likes and curious prefs. It builds community and it's warm and supportive.
