@Econ_4_Everyone I just read how @R_Thaler knew students would forget what they were taught but would remember stories. That could be the solution.

Ephemeral Readers. This week in my PhD course in experimental economics it became clear to me that my students consume information quickly but do not retain it for the long term.
Is this a generation of transient learners or are my students somehow different? I fear the former: youthful minds are constantly bombarded with information, so perhaps their reading habits reflect the fleeting nature of the content they encounter daily.

@alexdeminaur @pavyg I saw only the highlights but my impression was that Sinner was really exceptional cause Alex was playing well.

@pavyg Hey mate it’s a shame that you never became a good enough player to experience playing Jannik. I’m sure you would’ve put up a better performance and know exactly how to beat him. Wishing you all the best!!!

Vai oliko syynä se, että Trump pelkäsi ulkona järjestettävän tilaisuuden keräävän vain vähän ihmisiä, mikä olisi saanut hänet näyttämään heikolta.

With Donald Trump's inauguration ceremony moved indoors due to the extreme cold gripping much of the country, many of his supporters watched the moment he was sworn in from their hotels and restaurants in Washington

Two LDS apostles attended Trump's inauguration today, due to longstanding tradition. Whatever you think about the new president, do you think it's appropriate for the Utah-based faith to support political events like this?

Today would have been the 100th birthday of Latter-day Saint Helmuth Hubener, the youngest dissident to be executed in Nazi Germany for exposing Hitler's lies.

Onko joku tehnyt laskelmaa, mitä palkansaajille tarkoittaisi se, jos mediaaniyrittäjien YEL-rasitus olisikin palkansaajan kulukuorma?
Juu, ymmärrän, että yrittäjä on paljon suojattomammassa asemassa kuin palkansaaja, mutta ajatuskokeena: mitä YEL tarkoittaisi palkansaajalle?
Suomi
@AnttiLatvala Olisiko lista sama, jos pyydettäisiin kertomaan epäluotettavimmat? 🫣
Suomi
@TereSammallahti @SarasvuoJari Voisiko YEL-laskutusta linkittää alv-tilityksiin? Niitä tehdään vain kun on ollut myyntiä eli olisi jotain mistä maksaa. Eihän liikevaihdon syntyminen ole sama asia kuin että olisi varaa maksaa palkkaa, mutta vähän paremmat mahdollisuudet.
Suomi
@SarasvuoJari Palkansaajalle tämä nykyinen YEL-malli tarkoittaisi sitä, että eläkeyhtiö perisi joka kuukausi ko. henkilön ammattinimikkeen perusteella eläkemaksua, oli työsuhteessa tai ei.
Tämä johtaisi suurimmalla osalla vähänkin pidempään työttöminä olevilla ulosottokierteeseen.

@JussiPullinen Jäätä onkin murrettu sitten vähän isommalla kalustolla. Suomi onkin haravoinnin ja jäänmurron suurvalta.
Suomi
Stubb on keskustelussa siis... murtanut jään Trumpin kanssa? 🥁
Joka tapauksessa hyvä, että Suomikin pääsi kahdenvälisiin keskusteluihin.
Alexander Stubb@alexstubb
Very good phone call with @realDonaldTrump. I congratulated him on his clear victory. We discussed Ukraine, Russia, China and security in Europe. We also talked about icebreaker cooperation between Finland, the US and Canada. Relations between Finland and the US are very close.

@Tommi_Kinnunen Meillä ekaluokkalainen itkeskeli kotona kun koulun kammokuja oli ollut niin pelottava. Osallistuminen oli vapaaehtoista, enkä syytä koulua mistään, mutta halloween jutut tulevat silti enemmän iholle kuin kristilliset tarinat. Samaa kuolemaa ja kidutusta perussadutkin sisältää.
Suomi
Kun muistelen oman koulutieni alkua, liittyivät väkivalta, kuolema ja kiduttaminen vahvasti pääsiäisajan aamunavauksiin.

@KorkeelaM @JussiEronen Kyllä, erittäin huonosti valittu keissi, koska harva ymmärtää akateemisten ihmisten työelämän luonteen.
Suomi
@JussiEronen Minusta media voisi myös käyttää enemmän harkintaa, mitä nostaa ja tavan, miten asian tuo esille. Aina tulee muistaa vaikutus kohteelle.

Aika paljon ikävää keskustelua perheestä, joka kokee joutuvansa pulaan MLL:n lastenhoitoavun loppuessa. Perheet ovat erilaisia, somepilkka ei johda mihinkään rakentavaan. Pääpointti: MLL:n hoitajat ovat vuosien ajan auttaneet tuhansia ja tuhansia – ja avun loppu on iso juttu.

The Economist is endorsing Kamala Harris. By making Donald Trump leader of the free world, Americans would gamble with the economy, the rule of law and international peace. Voters who minimise the risks are deluding themselves econ.st/3C9RY3p 👇

The Stanford Prison Experiment was one of the most iconic studies in 20th-century social psychology, suggesting that anyone could become a sadistic bully. It was just a matter of social context.
Decades later, it is now evident that much of it was staged to support this conclusion.
Rutger Bregman@rcbregman
Very excited to see this: a National Geographic documentary about one of the biggest frauds in social science—the Stanford Prison Experiment. Based on all the new evidence. Thibault Le Texier in particular deserves major credit for his work uncovering the truth.

@DrDanaSuskind @AmerAcadPeds Hard to imagine a life without paid family leave. Greetings from a father of four from Finland whose longest paid family leave was 8 months.
English
Paid family leave positively impacts infant, child and parental health, strengthens parent-child relationships, minimizes health inequities and positively affects the labor market.
Bravo to @AmerAcadPeds new policy statement supporting it! 🎉

@jeffdavismd @R_Thaler And everyone knows Switzerland 🇨🇭 has nothing do with Nobel prize. Sweden 🇸🇪 might.
English
@R_Thaler There was no Nobel prize in economics. It was started by the Swiss Central Bank in Honor of Alfred Nobel. And every American knows the economy was better under him and will be disastrous under Harris.
English
I do not know any economist who thinks Trump would be a good President, or who thinks he would be good for the economy. And of course, tariffs are not paid by other countries! Fellow laureates agree: cnn.com/2024/10/23/pol…

@Econ_4_Everyone I graduated with master’s degree in Economics from Helsinki University in 2006 and I can’t remember being taught anything about experimentation back then.
English
14 days giving 14 talks spanning 5 countries. And I enjoyed every second of it! Experimental economics is in great hands with the rising youngsters. I will relay what I learned over the next several days.
Two thoughts: first, you know that you are getting old when in every talk you attend you think that one of your papers should be cited. Second, you will be viewed as unhinged if you continuously tell the speakers that fact! Accordingly, I largely kept quiet on that front!

Gino's case against us has been dismissed.
Scientists cannot effectively sue other scientists for exposing fraud/errors in their work.
Those who work to correct the scientific record can sleep better tonight. Those who don’t want it corrected, well, I don’t care how they sleep.
