@flowidealism This is mostly correct - I have never heard of the role of cafe houses though. The reward part is not quite right. As the joke says, they were called Martians (aliens) because no streets are named after them in Budapest, yet there are craters named after them on the Moon.

@predict_addict Correct. One of my favorites from high school

The largest randomized trial of medical A.I.
—Over 100,000 women in Sweden
—radiologist + AI vs 2 radiologists, in follow-up
—AI added led to 29% more cancer detected, 44% reduced workload, and
—Less cancer dx in subsequent 2 years, and, when found, less aggressive

Took a while to get here. Anyway, about Eurostack and why public procurement is key https://t.co/gRzLNEziJ8

BREAKING:

🇪🇺🇺🇸 Europe is starting to replace US tech companies with domestic ones - EU parliament resolution

Europe is pushing for digital sovereignty to reduce its heavy dependence on US tech giants.

US providers like AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud dominate over 70–80% of Europe's cloud and digital infrastructure market.

Recent EU efforts include a January 2026 European Parliament resolution calling for prioritising non-US options in public procurement, building a "Eurostack"

@RenaudFoucart EU’s Renaud Foucart Unveils “Project Porcelain,” a Grand Vision for Europe’s Future — Critics Quip It Could Shatter Economies as Easily as Its Namesake

[Gyula Seres @SeresGyula]

@RenaudFoucart Unironically, isn't this the case with everything? Satisfaction is driven by perception, applies to political preferences and consumption alike.

[Gyula Seres @SeresGyula]

@RenaudFoucart For many years, there wasn't any good movie about the legendary Hungarian 1954 FIFA world cup team. One attempt was about people who followed to match on *radio*. You just need to be more creative!

Nobel for growth!

[The Nobel Prize @NobelPrize]

BREAKING NEWS
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2025 Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel to Joel Mokyr, Philippe Aghion and Peter Howitt “for having explained innovation-driven economic growth” with one half to Mokyr “for having identified the prerequisites for sustained growth through technological progress” and the other half jointly to Aghion and Howitt “for the theory of sustained growth through creative destruction.”

“To read books gives us more power to survive these very difficult times on Earth.”

When we spoke to 2025 literature laureate László Krasznahorkai, he encouraged us all to read more.

Krasznahorkai also spoke about his happiness and excitement about being the newest Nobel Prize laureate in literature: “I’m very proud to be in the line of some really great writers and poets.”

Get to know László Krasznahorkai in our interview:

💥 Excited to share that our latest research has just been published in JMIR! "Understanding Economic Decision-Making in Digital Therapeutics Development" - our contribution to bridging the efficacy-effectiveness gap in digital health innovation.📲 https://t.co/I5njf20ulo

[John A. List @Econ_4_Everyone]

I just received the first blurb for my new Experimental Economics textbook:

"John A. List has given us an ambitious work that provides a more comprehensive framework for lab and field experiments as well as their discovery methodology than any other text that currently exists. Experimental Economics is poised to displace its predecessors and become the new standard reference for the field.”—Vernon Smith, Chapman University & winner of the Nobel Prize for Economics

Of course, I am over the moon with such support, as I hope the book can help our field move to an even higher level. For those interested in learning more about the book, we will be teaching it at summer schools next month in Bonn and the U. Chicago (https://t.co/O3V7AYBOVd).

@PaulSkallas Screenlife film is entire genre. It rarely works but there are a few thrilling movies https://t.co/MZkeFMX5TB

@Econ_4_Everyone Uncanny. It‘s still quite different from the experiment as here they also expose themselves and their kids to (tail) risk. Still, exactly the same pattern. How about this: Would you rather bring your son or daughter to a casino?
