[1/23] Je me suis amusé à essayer de construire l’axe gauche-droite des partis en utilisant des méthodes mathématiques se basant sur l’analyse de qui applaudit avec qui à l’Assemblée nationale, et ça marche plutôt bien. Petit thread d’explications. ⬇️

🚨 REPLICATION REPORT UPDATE: One year ago, a tweet by John Holbein alerted me, @ollefolke.bsky.social, and @jopieboy.bsky.social to a paper with a shocking result about Sweden’s law criminalizing the purchase of sex.🧵

A very reassuring paper for somebody about to turn 40

Elle pose aussi toute une série de questions sur la manière dont se transforment les prisons en France

The tariffs are mad; but what’s equally mad is that they somehow come as a surprise, when Trump has campaigned non-stop on this and controls all branches of government

Precious time has been lost, but it’s not too late for countries to mount an effective response 1/x

Ce qu'on dit dans la note, pour être complet, c'est que s'ils n'ont pas le droit de travailler les immigrés ont des taux d'atteintes aux biens plus élevés que les natifs (pas de différence sinon) et que sinon ils ont le même taux de violence.

Le problème c'est qu'on dit "lorsque les biais sont éliminés..." dans la note.

Gender gaps and stereotypes in @LeMondeFr #2

To capture stereotypes, we look at the verbs used to introduce women vs men quotes. The results speak for themselves: in the articles, women tend to 'whisper' (4x more likely🤯), 'recount' or 'smile'. Men 'mock', 'declare' & 'predict'

En belge classique ancien et plutôt méconnu j'aime bien "Horologiom" de Lebeault, en plus récent et peut être marginalement plus connu "petite coupures a shioguni" de Chavouet
