Pour comprendre la rationalité du système Musk, il faut en déconstruire les grands principes. À travers la désactivation de Starlink en Ukraine ou sa tentative chaotique de racheter Twitter, le milliardaire est en train de construire une puissance géopolitique formelle, complémentaire des prérogatives actuelles des États-Unis — une puissance fondée sur un cocktail nouveau : trolling, technologie totale, techno-politique. Asma Mhalla fait le point dans cette étude.

Past research has found that experienced well-being does not increase above incomes of $75,000/y. This finding has been the focus of substantial attention from researchers and the general public, yet is based on a dataset with a measure of experienced well-being that may or may not be indicative of actual emotional experience (retrospective, dichotomous reports). Here, over one million real-time reports of experienced well-being from a large US sample show evidence that experienced well-being rises linearly with log income, with an equally steep slope above $80,000 as below it. This suggests that higher incomes may still have potential to improve people’s day-to-day well-being, rather than having already reached a plateau for many people in wealthy countries. Data aggregated by income level have been deposited in OSF (<https://osf.io/nguwz/>) ([23][1]). Granular data are stored in a repository and are available to qualified researchers who wish to verify or extend the claims of this paper; contact the author for access information.
