Les compagnies/aéroports auront donc plus de flexibilité pour établir des plans de vols/liaisons aux horaires intenables. Les voyageurs peuvent s'attendre à des retards plus fréquents, plus longs et des connexions plus imprévisibles. Bravo aux groupements d'intérêts qui ont réussi à faire passer ça!

Thanks again @mhalla.bsky.social for the intriguing presentation and stimulating discussions!

It's a very sad day. Just notified that @iza.org is closing its doors as of 31 December 2025. At a time when labor is under attack and technological change moves at an ever-faster pace, I can't help but think that this is a short-sighted decision. My heart goes out to those folks who work there.

New job alert! 2-year post-doc in Housing Studies @liser.lu A chance to develop your research agenda and advance the analyses conducted in the Housing Observatory, a multi-annual collaboration with the Luxembourg Housing Ministry. Happy to answer questions! jobs.liser.lu/job/Esch-sur...

Dans cette tribune pour @theconversation.com, B. Michaillat démontre que l'idée d'un sentiment de "submersion migratoire" en France ne repose sur aucune réalité factuelle. Contrairement aux idées reçues, les Européens sont de plus en plus pro-immigration (1/4) theconversation.com/pres-de-70-d...

Voters clearly wanted the US government to stop funding cancer research so we can buy $400 million worth of garbage trucks.

This worrying trend is observed in other countries too (e.g. France): focus on migration and deviate attention from critical subjects such as the economy, climate change, geo-political tensions etc...
