And if you reckon banks have moderated their behaviour post-financial crisis, get this: US loans to private equity and credit funds have jumped by 60 per cent between the fourth quarter of 2024 and the second quarter of this year. To almost half a trillion dollars.

So I'll have 100+ papers to desk review tmrw 😔 It's not all AI, though publisher says that's a likely contributor. But I don't fully understand what else is driving this crazy increase - or what to do before journals collapse under the strain

Logged in to ScholarOne for the journal I co-edit and jfc we had as many submissions in 2 weeks as we used to receive in 6 months 😱 Just so you understand why journal desk rejects these days give no feedback - we just can't at this wild volume. Is it the same for other journals and editors?

At first I was confused by the "kitchen" reference but then I realised it's a space of both production and consumption, where technical skill meets amateur expertise, and taste blends with measurement - indeed it's where the blender is kept - and where all sorts of new recipes are tested out...

These people, they’re behaving like gangsters. The US delegates are pulling rude faces when others are speaking, challenging the rule of chairman, accusing the IMO secretariat of being biased. I’ve never heard anything like it at an IMO meeting. on.ft.com/3WRrUkx
