"Je dis souvent que les économistes sont des sociologues en situation de handicap cognitif, des spécialistes de sociétés qui n’existent pas qui construisent des modèles qui ressemblent plus aux Sims qu’à la réalité."
translation:
"I often say that economists are sociologists with cognitive disabilities, specialists in societies that do not exist that build models that are more like Sims than reality."

A cyberattack targeting check-in and boarding systems has disrupted air traffic at several major European airports. On Friday night, the attack hit a service provider affecting airports like Brussels and Berlin's Brandenburg. Brussels Airport says the incident has forced manual check-ins, causing significant delays. Berlin's airport operators cut off connections to the affected systems. London Heathrow, Europe's busiest airport, reports a technical issue with a service provider. Collins Aerospace, the provider, is experiencing problems that may delay departures. Airports are advising travelers to check their flight status and apologize for the inconvenience.
