Also, disgusting billionairs sailing their private yachts easily camouflage under maritime shipping statute to escape any fuel tax (they just need to buy a candy bar at the marina shop of any other country they departed from during their trip)

So great to be back to the Regulating for Decent Work Conference #RDW2025 @ilo.org - such a great line-up of papers, particularly on digital labour platform & (lack of) decent work, and empowering workers in global supply chains

🙏🙏🙏 to all of you @ @tuda.bsky.social @goetheuni.bsky.social @dfg.de Research Training Group 'Standards of Governance' for your challenging questions after my input talk ‘Conceptualising Standards’ yesterday. A great opportunity to refresh my mind on The Power of standards (@cambridgeup.bsky.social)

The digital countermove to Trump tariffs America’s mid-air dismantling of the global system of trade represents a one-time chance to compete

The powerful coun­ter­move to Trump’s bullying 👉 repealing the so-called anticircumvention laws forced by US to prohibit tampering with or bypassing software locks that control access to copyrighted works from which US monopolist giants extract huge rents.

3/3 'Once Trump has most law firms, universities, news organisations and private companies under his thumb, it will become almost impossible for any form of opposition to gain traction’ US Senator Chris Murphy (Connecticut) @chrismurphyct.bsky.social

2/3 Key institutions: knowledge (Ivy League universities cut from federal funding), information (censored media ), law (law firms bullied).

Trump’s tariff policy has nothing to do with trade 'If you understand Trump’s actions as the use of executive power to bully into complicity the institutions that would otherwise stop a slide towards autocracy, then it is easy to see how tariffs fit into the plan’ US Sen Murphy 1/3

Breaking now: Ministry of Economics reporting the tariffs have not caused significant changes to our trading volumes

A meme showing President Trump, a penguin and JD Vance at the White house. Trump: Nice suit. Penguin: I'm nude. Remove tariffs or I shit on this chair right now. Vance: be careful with the couch.

Screencap of article headline and subheading: "'Trade war with penguins': Trump places 10% tariff on uninhabited Antarctic islands. Planned tariffs shared by the White House included a 10% duty on imports from the barren Heard and McDonald Islands" Picture in bottom half of penguin wearing a bleached blond wig. Yellow caption: "I am never going to financially recover from this."

I'm in real tears, y'all...

Trump and Vance putting their hands up to a penguin instead of Zelensky in the White House

At least he wore a tux.

Waiting for Takeoff: The short-term impact of AI adoption on firm productivity In this study, we tackle the critical question of whether AI adoption leads to productivity improvement at the firm level.

Despite the hype, past research found no clear link between AI adoption and long-term productivity gains. Now a new report from @torontomet.bsky.social confirms it: no solid evidence that AI drives short-term productivity growth either. dais.ca/reports/wait...

This is big news for watchers of the academic research-attention economy complex

150 ans de conflit en 90 min + 1 message fort:
1) la question palestinienne ne meurt pas
2) elle mute
3) ... a une énorme charge symbolique
4) … qui aliment une attractivité sur les puissances en quête d’affirmation ds le système international
5) … et préfigure son évolution ds son ensemble
MERCI

Can’t wait for reading this. We are just brainstorming on this very issue with my colleagues @sylvainmaechler.bsky.social & Victor Cannilla from @unil.bsky.social

Looking forward to reading this important piece 😁
