De bachelor Economics & Business Economics zal per 2029 alleen nog in het Nederlands worden aangeboden. Dat maakte het CvB dinsdag bekend. De boodschap kwam voor de economen als een totale verrassing. Zij blijken maandenlang bewust verkeerd te zijn geïnformeerd door het CvB dub.uu.nl/nl/nieuws/ec...

If you like historical fiction, Dutch author Arthur Japin also has good books e.g. In Lucia's eyes, Mrs Degas. (I'm Belgian myself so look at me integrating in my country of residence :)
I concur it's excellent.
Potentially this gives an opening for VVD to enter in a coalition with them after all.
Dutch exit polls show potential clear 4-party centrist majority. D66 currently 27 seats in exit polls (out of 150), PVV second with 25. #NL #dutchelections #NL2025
Morgen kunnen we kiezen. Voor nog meer chagrijn en haat, óf voor hoop, samenwerking en vooruitgang. Het is tijd om de bladzijde-Wilders om te slaan. Stem morgen want samen laten we zien: het kan wél.
Thanks! Flight went well, in-flight entertainment malfunctioned but I mostly slept so can't complain. And I got to visit the Getty before leaving, so I am very happy with the trip.
Didn't know you also went running at IPES, next time I'd be happy to join if you'd have me.

EJ Antoni has never worked in statistics collection. He is 5 years out of his PhD. He's only ever written one economics paper. His explicit, only qualifications are that he works in ultra-conservative think tanks & believes Trump's conspiracies about the BLS. Grim stuff.
The fun doesn't end
You can't make this up, continued... #"PhD level intelligence". #ai
Meta AI seems to be overcorrecting... But sure, current AI models have "PhD level intelligence".

EU Commission president responds to Trump's latest tariff letter
ec.europa.eu/commission/p...
I mean, if you want to be extremely charitable, it could be a way to raise revenue (i.e. tax your citizens), while potentially getting a small rebate through terms-of-trade. But then just come out and say that, rather than "there is no tariff if you grow the bananas (and the coffee etc) in the US"
Dutch cabinet in trouble as Wilders' PVV announces it is leaving the coalition.
