Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 15/09/2026Reminds of a joker on econ vs math game theorists: math tell econ their games are too easy, econ tell math their games are useless 010

Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 11/09/2026It reminds me of a colleague whose husband works at Renault and he said that Trump has done more to the sells of electric vehicles than most policies so far (aka war with Iran and oil price is similar to a big carbone tax) 120
Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 11/09/2026I removed the name but the email was from an Elsevier employee whi was not from econ, it is the signal that the board is empty at the moment so let's work to leave it that way 020
Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 11/09/2026#EconSky Here it starts, GEB is out to hunt for new editor, please say no Happy to help the new journal that will come put of this :) 1217
Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Une question qu'on se posait la dernière fois est combien de temps il faut pour absorber ce surplus de décès ? J'entends on finit tous par mourir donc ces morts aujourd'hui sont des morts qui n'arrivent pas plus tard. Est ce que ce sont des gens qui seraient décédés dans l'année par exemple ? 100
Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 17/08/2026To be clear, GEB was broader than just theory so even behavioral people have an incentive to create a special journal. It always had a special place, being at the bottleneck between top fields and lower tier journals, getting high quality papers 010
Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 16/08/2026Like TE vs JET at the time, maybe it is time for the entre board to create a new open source journal in theory 1131
Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 11/08/2026People stop submitting papers, referees are in vacations 010
Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 03/08/2026But if you get it they fire canons and the students get in line in uniform with swords up to welcome you 010
Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 22/07/2026What is interesting is that in France for instance, due to the absolute priority which is "anything best for the child", any child born from surrogacy (which is partly illegal in France) abroad has to be officially recognized by the state as child of his French parents 030
Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 15/07/2026Mais l'égalité est un but en soi ? Si un individu consent à renoncer à sa consommation de son plein gré oui il y aura inégalité mais elle sera consentie. A moins d'invoquer une forme de paternalisme et penser que les individus ne prendraient pas les bonnes décisions 110
Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 15/07/2026Pourquoi non échangeables ? J'ai toujours aimé les quotas échangeables comme idée (mettons de coté la difficulté de l'implémentation) cela donne un pouvoir minimal égal à tous mais j'ai du mal à justifier pourquoi je ne devrais pas empêcher quelqu'un de vendre son quota 120

Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 13/07/2026Le gros en cours n'est en effet pas la (il est affiché sur Google maps) mais il y a eu plusieurs départs ces derniers jours je crois qu'il y en a eu un en effet aux gorges qui a été maîtrisé 110
Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 08/07/2026Cette nouvelle m'interroge, aurait-on eu le même verdict si les 9 victimes étaient des adultes ? Ca questionne la place de la parole des enfants dans la société et notre capacité à les protéger, en tant que parent cela fait peur 000

Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 07/07/2026Je me demande si je voudrais pas que son ego la fasse tenter avec bracelet dans une campagne toute pourrie et qu'elle perde encore plutôt que de tenter Bardella 100
Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 07/07/2026Je crois avoir lu que si bracelet ou inéligibilité elle ne serait pas candidate mais j'ai perdu la source 110
Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 07/07/2026Car la partie non sursis est considérée comme déjà purgée depuis la dernière condamnation à ce que j'ai compris mais elle aura le bracelet donc elle devra demander une autorisation pour chaque déplacement... 110

Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 18/06/2026On peut juger que leurs décisions et travail est mal fait je le conçois, mais le principe de dire les ministres ne travaillent pas en général est un peu extrême c'est à ça que je réagissais (ça touche à un certain populisme) 100
Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 18/06/2026Leur job est d'arbitrer des décisions, quelle est la définition de travail ? Un CEO ne travaille pas non plus ? 110
Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 18/06/2026Je suis toujours sceptique je me rappelle d'un argument que l'erreur est justement que chaque dirigeant européen, plutôt que s'unir, pense "qu'il a une relation privilégiée avec Trump" et "peut le outsmart" et à chaque fois on se fait avoir car il a la mémoire courte et changera d'avis 110

Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 04/06/2026I have not experienced reviews from data editors since the AI boom but now that I use it to review my own codes checking whether they do what the paper says they do, I must say that it changes everything for refereeing codes now. Make them check and edit a report that the authors must answer to 020
Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 28/05/2026EC is truly an amazing conference which reinforces the link between econ and CS. It was my first year as SPC, it was nice and I confirm that the papers are terrific! 020

Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 20/05/2026I was not referring to Harris for centrists but these data surely exist? 000
Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 20/05/2026It depends on the dynamics within parties, if more central republicans and democrats feel not represented within their party, there is a space to bring all of them at the middle. We already know the answer for the republican party and you are right that the democrats are not there yet 000
Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 20/05/2026Are the US close to a Macron-event? Both parties are moving to the extreme, there is space in the middle... 100
Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 20/05/2026Hot take: stop hiding your email on your website with images, [dot], [at] and so on. With IA now, a true spam scrapper is able to recover everything so not sure it helps reducing spams (+ emails screen well spams) you are just annoying someone who wants to contact you but this is maybe the goal? 010

Julien Combe @combeju.bsky.social · 12/05/2026These medical public health observational studies give us an infinite amount of examples for an intro course in econometrics about correlation vs causality, in a sense they have a positive externality in showing what one shouldn't do 030
