ASU prestige continues to climb!

It’s not surprising

Oil prices like this make me glad I’ve been VO2 maxing the past year.

Free Trade Boys WE UP

"Against this theoretical backdrop, there is a growing body of empirical research documenting that early childhood programs can generate meaningful and lasting improvements in children’s life chances" #Econsky

Open shot, fate of the Universe on the Line or the Martians have the Death Beam pointed at Earth you better hit it...I WANT BAD BUNNY!!!

Chapter 📖 "Decomposing Economic Choices with Drift-Diffusion Models" with @krajbichlab.bsky.social and Xiaozhi (Taro) Yang is out in, "Neuroeconomics: Core Topics and Current Directions" edited by @dvsmith.bsky.social, @thepsychologist.bsky.social, @dfareri.bsky.social tinyurl.com/yey56tup

I know all eyes are on Minneapolis, but there's a fast-approaching nightmare in Springfield, Ohio. Trump is revoking protected status for tens of thousands of Haitians living there on Feb. 3. Reportedly, on Feb. 4, 1000 ICE agents are arriving to remove this population. Ethnic cleansing.

Recessions aren’t uniform events. Decomposing the labor market by race, education, and underemployment, using @claudia-sahm.bsky.social-style turning points, the cyclical sensitivities differ sharply—because some people experience recessions first. There’s an inequality to recession. #EconSky

For those attending ASSA, EconScience meetings, here is our session on LLMs in experimental economics (as synthetic subjects) 1015am 5 Jan 2026. Audience will be discussants, using Slido app; everyone can submit questions at any time. We're all looking forward to it. @thomashenning.bsky.social

I find it comforting to remind myself on occasion of how big the world truly is. Happy New Year to all; I hope you all have a great 2026.

This is extremely important

That’s a wrap for #SNE2025! Grateful for the chance to share some of our recent work as a spotlight this year and thankful to the society for supporting me as one of this year’s travel award winners along with @gloriawfeng.bsky.social, @jaehyungwoo.bsky.social, Laura Globig, and Minho Hwang)!

If Cook had done the very same thing in 2023, after her public service began, it still would not be obvious to me that an error on a mortgage application would constitute “cause” for these purposes. Would a traffic violation? An adverse finding on a tax audit? open.substack.com/pub/petercon...

A new paper by Nobel Prize-winning economist Claudia Goldin has found that countries where men take on more of the household labor and child care — in other words, those who buck traditionalism’s standards of the provider husband and homemaker wife — have higher fertility rates.

Why is dollar cost averaging so popular. It makes no sense. EV in the market is highest right now! Unless you believe in market timing (you shouldnt unless you sit in a big Bank/HF and have access to all “public wink wink” data, you should invest what you plan to DCA right away! With few exceptions

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, the best defensive lineman in the world players power forward for the New Orleans Pelicans. Thinking back on Julius Peppers career and contrasting it with Williamson; does Peppers focus on basketball full time with today’s NBA salaries? Incentives matter!

We’re fixing Atlantic Avenue! This is what a comprehensive community-led rezoning looks like 🏠

Flying into LA after traveling is always depressing; LA should be one of the greatest cities on the planet and instead it’s a destitute suburb. America needs to revitalize and modernize our cities, it’s embarrassing.

On my reading list (by @thomashenning.bsky.social). Very interesting.

Nice article written up about a working paper we just submitted! Check it out! www.ai-street.co/p/ai-as-an-o...

Might be presenting a poster to some Nobel Laureates today; gonna make sure to get a wicked chest pump first.

Should we find this at all surprising? Knowledge is building on top of eachother. As we go deeper the pre-requisites increase. This is like saying Calculus is harder than Algebra; frontier math is getting harder to understand!

It’s hard to visit Asia and not come away thinking that American cities are dinosaurs. We need to be so much better.

Just touched down in Seoul and instantly started arguing about housing policy with a friend on instagram. How cooked am I?

It’s power law distributions all the way down.

Anyone have a good example of a pre-registration document? Ideally something in the Cognitive sciences/Neuro but open to any. Also let me know if there’s a good resource to find a few.

This place needs group chats; and I’d be on here exclusively over Twitter.

How many other times in history has this happened, and what can be done to get this back in order? It feels different than just misinformation; anyone studying this type of phenomena?
