#FIFA is a mafia and I love #football anyway, so I did the only reasonable thing: simulated the whole #WorldCup 10 million times. 🇪🇸 Spain are your filthy 35% favourites — and the betting market thinks I've lost the plot. ⚽️

Who wins the 2026 World Cup? Probably Spain.

FIFA is a mafia. Now let’s watch football. Let’s not beat about the bush: FIFA is a mafia, their Peace Prize a disgrace and a host country so hostile towards the expected guests from all over the world not worthy of that honour. But as soon as the whistle sounds later today and the first ball is kicked, none of this matters anymore and football (or soccer in freedom units) rules everything. ⚽️

The Growing Threat of Flooding on Transportation Infrastructure Across Texas Through 2100

H/T @Rakibul Ahasan
“[The researchers] modeled flood susceptibility across Texas at 30 m resolution and projected how it shifts through 2100. The headline is not just that flood risk grows, but that it moves, into places current planning and regulatory maps are not watching. The July 2025 Kerrville flooding sat squarely inside the kind of inland hazard expansion this model projects.
KEY TAKEAWAYS:
● 95% of new flood exposure by 2100 is inland, away from the coast, shifting the resilience problem into interior river basins that planning has historically deprioritized.
● Where [they] benchmarked against FEMA's National Flood Hazard Layer, the model flags substantial hidden risk in rapidly urbanizing peri-urban areas, most notably in Greater Houston.
● Climate change alone expands the flood-susceptible footprint by 10–12% by 2100, before any new road or land-use development, so this is a conservative floor, not a ceiling.
● Half the state's roads and rail and 80% of its bridges already sit in flood-susceptible zones today.
● [They] accounted for both factor-importance and spatial-scale uncertainty, using a Monte Carlo weight-perturbation ensemble and multiscale analysis across nested neighborhoods.
The practical takeaway: this is a statewide screening layer, not a replacement for site-level hydraulic studies. It shows planners and policymakers where the gap between today's protection and tomorrow's risk is widest, and where unmapped peri-urban growth is walking into exposure that regulatory maps still call safe…”

🎓 The MCnet Summer School 2026 may be over, but we’re leaving CERN with new ideas, new collaborations, and many new friends.

A huge thank you to everyone who contributed to an excellent week of lectures, tutorials, discussions, and poster sessions focused on Monte Carlo event generators and the future of precision collider physics.

Until next time!
