These are cool jobs for early career folks and you should spread around your networks.

Great fit for those interested in something like a pre-doc (econ, polisci, soc), but great fit also for those a bit further into their career and want to work on policy with a foot both in and outside academia.

Serious question: Why doesn't the Pope excommunicate him? Backlash? Or is it just that that's not how excommunication works?

i kind of assumed they're just trying to give themselves arbitrary limitations for coming up with tech that would perform well for other types of robots with more commercial uses

Preliminary Analysis: Eviction Filing Patterns in 2025 Amid benefit cuts, rising rents, and immigration enforcement, renters faced mounting pressures in 2025. Our data show landlords still filed over 1.2 million eviction cases across the country.

shouldn't the expectation just be that you know the unique assumptions of the model you're using and can justify them? are these differences entirely ideosyncratic?

hmm i guess i take for granted that everyone accepts with the former that "so does A and B and C etc" and are just saying they think the relative effects are larger for consumer sentiment atm, but maybe that isn't actually being argued idk

for the uninitiated, what's this distinction?

it's a weird policy. many (some?) commercial leases base the rents on a percent of self-reported revenue, but it's risky because businesses sometimes misreport. anyway that's a bit more viable as well if there's some better enforcement mechanism to incentivize that type of lease

tbh i have no idea how small businesses determine prices but i don't see the problem with them increasing prices to pay for rent. drinks in tourist traps are crazy expensive and so are rents, but the tourist traps remain

i guess the idea is this is an amenity the public wants to pay for, but maybe they should just pay for the lost tax revenue by adding a local sales tax at the benefitting businesses since the customers apparently value it so much

not a jmp but this is a very good paper that heavily relies on empirics (and is getting an expanded follow up that will likely be published outside of a law review)

Nicole Summers has a couple good ones. I think K-Sue Park as well. I usually avoid law review articles so maybe your question is rhetorical

ah makes sense. gas stoves are less and less common in the us so partially explains the rarity. but even growing up in new england where gas is most common, never saw these before

you're right, what is that

imo in the financialization literature it is pretty hard to find models that are as concrete as this, even if there are lots of data limitations on actual measurement

Landlord Distress Isn’t Our Fault, But It Is Our Problem Unable to realize enough profit from their portfolios to repay their investors, landlords are turning the screws on tenants in the form of rising rents and declining conditions.

ah ok well a sort of measure of "financial untethering" along these lines i've seen proposed is described here, and i'd recommend digging into some of jacob's other work:

Whenever I see someone's windshield wipers going much faster than the current rate of rainfall requires, I immediately lose all respect for them as a driver/person
