To be clear, GEB was broader than just theory so even behavioral people have an incentive to create a special journal. It always had a special place, being at the bottleneck between top fields and lower tier journals, getting high quality papers

This is the 2nd chapter of Cyril's PhD. He is an outstanding young scholar. He will join the Univ. of Padova next semester. If you're interested in affirmative action, I highly recommend his JMP "Job Matching and Affirmative Action: The Impact of Transfer Policies" drive.google.com/file/d/1pk0Y...

Cette nouvelle m'interroge, aurait-on eu le même verdict si les 9 victimes étaient des adultes ? Ca questionne la place de la parole des enfants dans la société et notre capacité à les protéger, en tant que parent cela fait peur

I have not experienced reviews from data editors since the AI boom but now that I use it to review my own codes checking whether they do what the paper says they do, I must say that it changes everything for refereeing codes now. Make them check and edit a report that the authors must answer to

EC is truly an amazing conference which reinforces the link between econ and CS. It was my first year as SPC, it was nice and I confirm that the papers are terrific!

The list of 290 papers we accepted for EC'26 is now up: ec26.sigecom.org/program/acce... We are really grateful to the whole programme committee for their hard work and to the authors for submitting many terrific papers. See you all in Rome in July 🍕🇮🇹🍝☀️🤖

Are the US close to a Macron-event? Both parties are moving to the extreme, there is space in the middle...

President Trump's preferred candidate ousted an incumbent in Tuesday’s marquee House race in Kentucky, while a Democratic primary in Pennsylvania was a win for the democratic socialists. Here’s a closer look at what happened in the House primaries.

Hot take: stop hiding your email on your website with images, [dot], [at] and so on. With IA now, a true spam scrapper is able to recover everything so not sure it helps reducing spams (+ emails screen well spams) you are just annoying someone who wants to contact you but this is maybe the goal?

The German airline Lufthansa said it would cut 20,000 flights over the next six months to save jet fuel as the pressure builds on companies to address surging prices and declining supplies of energy caused by the war in Iran.

#EconConf #EconSky We just sent the paper notifications for #MATCHUP26 thanks to all for the many great submissions and to PC reviewers for their great job! 93 submissions for 24 talks and 19 posters. This was more than expected and we ended up rejecting many very good papers More details below

Pardon corrélation n'est pas causalité c'est peut être parce que il y a non recours que les riches décident que l'état n'a pas autant besoin de recettes... une étude causale sérieuse est nécessaire

#EconSky AI is both terrifying for students since they can juste stop working and learn nothing if they let AI do the work but also amazing. It is a great teacher to expnain maths intuitions. I use it often to ask all the secret questions you never dare to ask and it given great intuitions

I also wonder how it can open maths to more people. I have the feeling that the way maths are taught can exclude people who can have a different way of viewing things but who can nonetheless be great at maths

Like @alexjubelin.bsky.social said: maybe a good way to look at the strategy is to wonder what a 8yo would like. "Firing a torpedo from a submarine ?! So cool let's do it and I want the video", "destroying planes from above like in Call of Duty ?! So cool let's do it and post the video"

#EconSky #EconConf Submissions are not closed for MATCH UP 26 and the bidding is open for reviewers. 91 submissions thanks a lot everyone this is great! @t8el.bsky.social it seems that Paris in July is more attractive than Oxford in September :) Review assignment next Monday, answers by April 15

#EconSky Very happy to join the organizing team of the Virtual IO seminar of @cepr.org Great speakers and discussants coming! See the program in the link. Note that you can also have access to past seminars recording! cepr.org/events/event...

Ceci dit avec 12 ministres sur 18 identiques au précédent gouvernement il ne fallait pas s'étonner... Rebattre les cartes dans le même groupe ne marche plus, je suis assez pessimiste sur la capacité d'un gouv de gauche à tenir face à des LR, Rennaissance et RN, on se dirige vers la dissolution ?

The workshop is now over thanks to all participants! This was a nice and moving tribute to Yinghua, many shared nice memories and stories about him. It showed how he had a deep impact on market design in Europe and especially in France and how broad his interests were from theory to empirics

#EconSky #EconConf We are organizing a workshop in the memory of my coauthor & friend Yinghua He. Amazing list of speakers related to Yinghua's work, check it out! Info and registrations here: www.parisschoolofeconomics.eu/en/events/wo... @crestumr.bsky.social @pse.bsky.social @tse-fr.eu

The market design community (and I) is deeply missing him and we need more people like him promoting interdisciplinary collaborations to make papers with broad impact. I also learned about his humble backgroun from rural China and I felt even more impressed by him. So long my friend!
