@airtransat what is going on. 6 calls today in an attempt to book a flight. 5 disconnected while I was on hold. I left my number to get a call twice. Never received a call. I don't understand.

Love this!!!!

🚨New Paper🚨
Economics says: pay people directly for goal achievement.
A new field experiment led by @BerkeleyHaas Prof. Rachel Gershon shows higher achievement if you pay people only if they and a friend both achieve their goal (here, gym attendance).👉https://t.co/OSY4qe6Jnf

Overheard at @UofT_BEAR talk with @CassSunstein: People trade off #happiness and #meaning for the sake of #variety in their lives! Variety is something that, by nature, people won't habituate. @dilipsoman @rotmanschool

“A reliable way to make people believe in falsehoods is frequent repetition, because familiarity is not easily distinguished from truth. Authoritarian institutions and marketers have always known this fact.”

He made it harder to ignore our own ignorance, and that is no mean achievement.

RIP, Daniel Kahneman (1934-2024)

Two years of the COVID-19 pandemic has pulled Canadians further apart, brought out the worst in people and weakened their compassion for one another, according to the findings of a new survey. https://t.co/YkU04bOVF2

Bittersweet announcement but after an amazing 2 years as an infectious disease expert I am moving on. I am now an expert in no-fly zones and Eastern European affairs. Excited to make the most of this new opportunity.

Love this idea. They are undervalued and underpaid. Everytime I receive an excellent service through call center I want to shout it out from the rooftop!

[Rory Sutherland @rorysutherland]

So here's my thought. How much better would call centres be if you could tip good people electronically? I am convinced there is a business opportunity for a virtual currency exclusively designed to promote generosity and gratitude.
