Vim cá ter, na sequência de um screenshot que recebi desta thread para dizer que, quando a li, pensei que era sobre mim.
Tive *exatamente* essa situação esta semana. "Prof., a minha mãe pode juntar-se a nós no gabinete? É que também percebe de administrativo"
"Obviamente que não. Que idade tem?"
See, the Art of the Deal is when you bully the weakest party to accept anything.
Like extorsion in exchange for the privilege of defeat.
And then, you give another weaker party - weaker than you - anything they want.
Like someone else's country in exchange for your own standing in the world.
Today, I graded an exam whose answers relied solely on Portuguese legislation that was repealed 10 years ago.
There were quite a few strong contenders, but this is the most important book I read in 2024.
The case for a positive vision of masculinity and reinvention of boyhood and manhood for a world where "women no longer need men, but kids still need their fathers".
Dia 12 de Dezembro, às 11h, na sala 12.27 da Faculdade de Direito da Universidade de Lisboa, organizamos a conferência “15 anos do Tratado de Lisboa”.
A entrada é livre.
Stay tuned...
Sounds super promising - anything you can share at this point about institutional subscriptions, e.g. for universities and research centres?
Excited to share that LawLibrary.AI has received funding to develop our SaaS platform for EU legal research from the University of Gothenburg and GU Ventures! 1/6 www.lawlibrary.ai #EUlaw #LegalTech
Thatcher's greatest achievement, she said, was Blair: she had succeeded in making her opponents think and sound like her.
Is Trump's greatest achievement Biden's pardon?

New EU law administrative book out

Amazing.
Scientists being here has generated a vibe of a positive outlook for the future. Reading about new findings, new projects, new tools is a good balance for the doom and gloom that we get from the regular news.
Parents of the world, I have good and bad news for you.
Good news: your babies/toddlers love you.
Bad news: they have separation anxiety and will lose their minds as soon as you leave the room.
Ya está. Acabonde cerrar mi cuenta de "X". Esperemos que Bluesky no entre en la misma deriva de concentración de poder.
Very happy to see you here!
Thank you so much, Luis!
And great to see you here!
i would feel uncomfortable unless it was going to something like an independent foundation that supported a distributed ecosystem on here rather than to a single corporate entity, Bluesky Social. they should certainly get money from it but they shouldn’t administer the funds.
How do we all feel about the possibility that the long-term viability of a platform like this remaining not crappy would require many of us to pay a small monthly fee?
Optimist: the cup is half full.
Pessimist: the cup is half empty.
EU: after 6 years, a HISTORIC milestone!
As part of the #EUDEL package ("A Europe that delivers"), the EU approved the Comprehensive Cup Act (#CCA), thus becoming the first major economy to lead the way in the regulation of cups!
There's one for US admin lawyers!

It's a delight to share the publication of my book on a sane network!
I wonder if there are more (EU, comparative, or national) #administrativelaw scholars out here, from any jurisdiction?
Would my followers help me find out by reposting this? :)
We should connect and create a starter pack!
I was skeptical of the “X is slowly cooking your brain” discourse because I don’t think my ideological worldview has shifted much, but having now experienced both Bluesky and X I think the big difference is I got used to fighting/provocation as the standard “tone” of posting without realizing it.
A graph comparing Spanish and German gdp, which diverge in 2008 but reconverge between 2017-2024
Here’s a crazy fact for you: Spain and Germany have now seen basically the exact same amount of economic growth post-2008. Would have been unthinkable to people during most of the 2010s. Spain has seen ~10 percentage points more cumulative growth since 2017.
Wishing the Elsevier editors who desk-accepted this all the best for their next career moves.
