Les nazis disaient ça des juifs et comme ces derniers ne portaient pas d’uniforme, ils leur ont mis une étoile jaune. On rentre réellement en territoire nazi, là : le doute n’est plus permis et ICE tient le rôle de la Gestapo.

Trump to generals: "America is under invasion from within. We're under invasion from within. No different than a foreign enemy, but more difficult in any ways because they don't wear uniforms. At least when they're wearing a uniform you can take them out."

It’s striking that across the globe, labour is consistently taxed at higher rates than capital income.

Depolarization is not "a scalable solution for reducing societal-level conflict.... achieving lasting depolarization will likely require....moving beyond individual-level treatments to address the elite behaviors and structural incentives that fuel partisan conflict" www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Un article collectif analyse la place du genre dans les sciences sociales. Qui mobilise cette perspective, quand et comment le fait-on ? L’article propose un tableau original de la part du genre dans les sciences sociales.

Dear colleagues, positions at CNRS (and INRIA) will (in all probability) be announced this winter. By then it will however be too late to properly prepare an application. Recent PhDs, postdocs etc interested in such positions should get right now in contact with teams who would like to recruit them.

J'ai la grande joie de vous annoncer la sortie de mon"Sociologie des arts visuels" chez Armand Colin.
Une synthèse en 166 pages d'un domaine très dynamique et très international, dont on peut dire que l'histoire commence en France dans les 1960s et se poursuit, depuis, dans le monde entier !

🚨 New paper alert 🚨 Using LLMs as data annotators, you can produce any scientific result you want. We call this **LLM Hacking**.

Paper: arxiv.org/pdf/2509.08825
We present our new preprint titled "Large Language Model Hacking: Quantifying the Hidden Risks of Using LLMs for Text Annotation".
We quantify LLM hacking risk through systematic replication of 37 diverse computational social science annotation tasks.
For these tasks, we use a combined set of 2,361 realistic hypotheses that researchers might test using these annotations.
Then, we collect 13 million LLM annotations across plausible LLM configurations.
These annotations feed into 1.4 million regressions testing the hypotheses. 
For a hypothesis with no true effect (ground truth $p > 0.05$), different LLM configurations yield conflicting conclusions.
Checkmarks indicate correct statistical conclusions matching ground truth; crosses indicate LLM hacking -- incorrect conclusions due to annotation errors.
Across all experiments, LLM hacking occurs in 31-50\% of cases even with highly capable models.
Since minor configuration changes can flip scientific conclusions, from correct to incorrect, LLM hacking can be exploited to present anything as statistically significant.

non, je pense que c'est un enjeu de visibilité et de légitimité. On considère que le quanti est particulier alors que le quali est la norme; et donc on demande un·e quantitativiste pour faire des cours de quanti, et un·e sociologue pour faire des cours de quali.
