Trigger warning: Today’s post will be deliberately provocative and inflammatory!
Instead of recognizing an econ giant like Richard A. Posner or Thomas Sowell, the 2026 Nobel Prize in “economic sciences” (see here) went to Robert Hall (Stanford) and Michael Woodford (Columbia). Alas, this year’s prize will be all but forgotten by the end of this week, if not sooner. (For a contrary view, see here, but feel free to compare all four of their Wikipedia pages linked above if you don’t believe me.)

Reasoning about reasoning, mathematically.
I don't mean to sound critical, but I am; so that's how it comes across
