I’m very sad to share that Ned Phelps passed away last night. Ned was my undergraduate advisor and the reason I’m an economist. He was beyond brilliant but more importantly an amazing human being. His deep curiosity about the world will always be a lodestar for me.

Someone asked how the growth in working papers on SSRN compared to other websites. SSRN vs. NBER vs. ArXiv papers per month -- interesting to see the lack of "ChatGPT" response in NBER relative to Arxiv -- SSRN looks more mixed but clearly trending way up.

Many people know that there are multiple metrics for racial bias in algorithms -- and that they can yield *very* different results. In a new paper with Aurelie Ouss, we show the same is true for racial disparities in treatment effects. 1/ #econsky #polisky

Here’s a graph from the Economist showing GDP data from official government sources versus private estimates. Free countries, like the US, don’t manipulate econ data. Less free countries do. Trump is seeking to break that for short-term PR. (Yes I know GDP is BEA and not BLS.)
free countries have gdp data line up well. partly free countries are only mediocre. not free countries are bad.

🚨 New working paper 🚨 In large cities, wages are higher. But so are inequalities. In fact, low-wage workers earn lower real earnings there. Why? What drives spatial wage disparities? Why some workers work at lower real wages in large cities?
