Do not write 'Abstract', but use Pumping elephant from now on! I applaud these authors for their creativity. Abstract, so boring! A pumping elephant is more interesting!

Epidemiology is not ridiculous enough to fit in the bottom right corner IMO

It should be something like “Machine learning is economics” (Who can say otherwise, they are fitting data to model!)

Uh, well, fun fact of the day:
I made a presentation about one of Dali's paintings during my second year undergrad and then entered a 10-year amnesia (?)
