Did you notice that these things allways happen a couple of days after you present new work in an IZA event, Jonas?

So glad to be in Wien! My favorite conference that I don’t organize: the annual meeting of the Ausschuss für Bevolkerungsökomik of the @vfsecon.bsky.social, this year at the @ihs.ac.at. @simontrenkle.bsky.social presenting here.

JMP alert 🎉

thanks Ingo!
