L'exode de plusieurs utilisateurs de la plateforme X et la popularité de @bsky.app ont provoqué un sain débat sur ce que sont les chambres d'écho et sur leurs effets. Les chambres d'écho sont-elles des bulles? Y en a-t-il de bonnes et de mauvaises? Devrait-on les éviter?

Pleased to announce "A Recursive Measure of Voting Power that Satisfies Reasonable Postulates," co-authored with Adrian Vetta, has been accepted at 𝘎𝘢𝘮𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘌𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘰𝘮𝘪𝘤 𝘉𝘦𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘪𝘰𝘳. (I’m the child of two economists and this is my first pub in an econ journal, so it’s especially gratifying.)
