The shift to remote work during the COVID-19 pandemic increased the full-time employment of physically disabled individuals by between 9 & 11 percent, say researchers at @stanforduniversity.bsky.social, @ucsandiego.bsky.social, and @stockholm-uni.bsky.social. #econsky www.aeaweb.org/research/cha...

The effects of remote work on the disability employment gap

A rise in work from home explains most of the postpandemic gain in full-time employment among people with physical disabilities.

We had a #DSLab walking through using the {mall} pkg + {ellmer} in #rstats (& chatlas in #python) to process text columns in a dataframe with LLMs. This is something I find super helpful, esp when the task is tedious, big, & only needs to be done once, then reviewed. #databs youtu.be/ZNHNVWUMTJA
