Game theory, economics and Russian politics

My heart breaks for Kyiv these days. One of the largest cities in Europe with millions people is without power at about 5°F - because of Russian missiles strikes on Ukrainian energy industry. I was teaching in Kyiv in May-June last year, when it was warm, live, and beautiful -…

Nearly 6 thousand buildings are without power in Kyiv. A major city in Europe where millions of people live. Imagine looking out your window in Paris or New York and seeing the entire skyline black. It would be global news & seen as a catastrophe. russia did that.

“Dear Jonas: Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace…” In 60 years’ reporting, I’ve never seen a message like Trump’s to Norway’s PM. We’ve left the realm of…

New research co-authored by King's College London academic @MehmetMars7 proposes a novel solution to solve one of the biggest statistical quirks in tennis: winning the match while winning fewer games. So, how does it work? 🤔🎾 More here 👇 kcl.ac.uk/news/could-sim…

Folks, this is real. This is the actual letter that Trump sent to the PM of Norway. Trump is a narcissistic psychopath. But we already knew that. This letter shows that Trump is also insane.

If you do applied math (broadly - CS, stats, physics, . . .) - a request/freebie: Refine is a tool that reads papers and finds technical issues, like a referee. We want researchers in diverse areas to try it. If you're willing to, read on. 1/

More than 200,000 Danish citizens have signed a petition to buy California as a response to Trump’s attempt to take Greenland. They say they will provide Californians with “rule of law, universal health care, fact-based politics, and a lifetime supply of Danish pastries.”

Detection of AI-generated text is now much more reliable. In principle, universities could use this to penalise students who rely on AI for essays. In practice, that would mean failing whole cohorts, at least initially, and incentives favour student satisfaction over enforcement.

In 2024, normies didn't understand that there was no way to reliably detect AI-generated writing. In 2026, AI users don't understand that there *is* a way to reliably detect AI-generated writing. And also that readers have developed a nose for the stink of AI prose!

Peak Baltics moment. Deporting a Jewish person for saying bad things about Nazis.

The optics of this scandal are cross-eyed-inducing. Volkov sends a vitriolic DM to a disgruntled ex-employee (lol), cheering the (faked) killing of neo-Nazi leader "White Rex" (whom the ex-employee now works for, lol), & Volkov is now at risk of being booted from Lithuania.…

research is crazy - the Shapley value will soon have more citations for its use as a way to grade the importance of features in ML analyses than it ever got for its original purpose in game theory/social science
