We recruit broadly, but selfishly, if you do computational design, computational creativity, behaviour change, computational cognitive modelling – do apply 😁!

For the media class the apex of politics isn’t being a prosperous, socially just, well run country in the North Atlantic.
No, it’s cosplaying being a mid 20th century imperial power. They genuinely all want to be in the West Wing. For them - this is as good as it gets.

Previously on this show:
Cap student fees, unis charge cap.
Uncap intl fees, unis chase intl students.
Keep fee cap throughout 39% inflation, unis w/o intls cost-cut or go under.
& at every step: "We're shocked market actors behave like market actors, not public services!"

I've written a blog that writes this story up, and I've also created my first youtube video (!) to tell the story. I'm trying to figure out if youtube is for me so, uh, let me know.
Thanks so much for reading.

Sorry, my "bam!" was cryptic.
Google has violated Section 2 of the Sherman Act by maintaining its monopoly in two product markets in the U.S....
It's 286 pages - be back with a thread shortly along with implications for the adtech antitrust trial starting in five weeks. /1
