With apologies if someone has beaten me to the punch... I've cloned and updated the economics job market tracker from @paulgp.com to get a sense for how the market is going so far this year. Good news: better than 2025 Bad news: not by much

In the first Trump administration I was constantly seeing stories from NYT, WSJ, etc., that would describe inner workings and dysfunctions of white house and inevitably include a line like "this account is based on interviews with more than 25 administration officials"

Looking to get up-to-speed on cross imputation: getting a relationship between X and Y in dataset 1, and then imputing Y in dataset 2 where I have X but no Y. I'm told this might be more of a sociology thing -- would love any papers/handbook chapters for the state of the art. #econsky #sociology

back in maybe 2022 there was this brilliant video of Ben Simmons passing up wide open layups in 2K with Steve Nash (remember when he was coach?) looking around in disbelief I assume it's lost to internet history but would love to find this... #sixers #nba

I think a useful heuristic for social science is: is this question interesting if I find a (precise) null effect? And I will submit that the problem with a lot of these fraudulent marketing studies is the answer was clearly "no." www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc...

"Some studies implicitly adopt the view that, perhaps because of some benevolent identification deity, the data at hand necessarily include some set of conditioning variables that suffice for the CIA." incredible line from Barnow and Smith (2015) 🔥🔥

I know the crypto crowd won big and bitcoin is at record levels, etc., but I am still so incredibly down on this whole thing. Like, it's-going-to-go-to-$0-eventually level down on it. www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

Trump’s win has Bitcoin soaring. The ‘normies’ want in.
Expectation that the new Trump administration will be favorable to cryptocurrency has sent prices soaring, luring in some investors for the first time.

I feel like the word "elite" has just fully lost its usefulness after the 2024 election. I can't think of a coherent definition that fits all the ways it has been thrown around the last week and a half.

Life as a PhD student has been rough on my eyes and I'm really feeling it. I downloaded an app to make the light on my computer gentler (justgetflux.com) and I'm trying to take more screen breaks; anyone have other tips? Are blue light glasses real?

The democratic party is an actual coalition, much more diverse (ideologically) than the Trumpified republicans. For this reason I feel like it's a bit of a Rorschach test -- everybody sees something different.

Very poignant that reelecting Trump (who, among other things, is going to delay climate action during 4 crucial years) during a bizarre November heat snap :(

OK maybe this is too econ-brained but the thing about the election is we don't (and really can't) know the counterfactual. As in it might be true that Harris ran a good campaign and in some sense did "well", but also that she lost.

I think one of the most damaging things in US politics is the idea that political hobby-ism is activism. Scrolling, watching the news, and posting (for most of us) are just not going to do anything.

This is a chess set my dad bought on Arbat in Moscow in the 90s. I think it was produced by ‘artel kuktsport’ based on a stamp that says ‘OTK-8’ on the bottom, but I can’t find any similar set online. I would love to know more about it but also I lost a piece and desperately want to replace it!

Rightwingers are promoting aggressive anti-bikeism as a key element of the reactionary political identity. Just the most destructive people, reflexively raging against anything coded “left” or “woke.” And so even the most universally beneficial trends and behavior are declared evil and “Un-American”

the reason cats are no longer allowed to vote is because they all just wrote in their own names. for decades, they did this. absolute chaos. millions of cats, each earning one vote. plus, they'd get ink all over their paws. a mess. this stuff is in books, people.
an orange and white cat is splayed out on a green chair. he appears to be full of mischief. no shortage of mischief. his wide eyes suggest he has never done anything wrong in his life.

I love when the economics "Nobel" goes to someone whose research is accessible and relevant to everyday people. I just taught a mini lesson on Claudia Goldin to my freshman elements of micro section and it was an *awesome* way to review income/substitution effects!
