@arindube How do you reconcile the change from 1940 to 1950 with the findings of Goldin & Margo (1992)? If I'm reading their results correctly, they find a much larger decline in the 50/10 ratio and a smaller decline in the 90/50 ratio.

Changes after 2020 reversed around 1/3 of the rise in wage inequality post-1980. However, these gains were more concentrated in the bottom half of the pay scale than past episodes. 2/

NY KRONIKK! Sammen med Laura Khoury @KhouryLaura1 og Manudeep Bhuller finner jeg at den mentale helsen til innsatte er mye bedre etter at de slipper ut, enn før de fikk fengselsdommen. Også partnere har bedre mental helse i årene etter løslatelse dn.no/fredagskronikk…

Every now & then I come across a beautiful paper that makes me answer the question "Is this economics?" with an emphatic YES. The debutante season was disrupted in 1861-63 by Queen Victoria's mourning. This led to less assortative matching & reduced aristocratic power.

Is this patient having a heart attack? After 10+ years in the ER, it’s still an agonizing question for me I turned the angst into a long paper with @m_sendhil in @QJEHarvard—doi.org/10.1093/qje/qj… Tl;dr—machine learning can have *huge* benefit, and help fix docs' errors 🧵

Add that to the research on how much test scores are affected by air conditioning on hot days, and it is pretty clear that good HVAC systems will often pay for themselves in schools, offices, and anywhere else thinking matters. twitter.com/emollick/statu…
Ethan Mollick@emollick

One of the moat effective educational interventions is air conditioning. “Without air conditioning, a 1°F hotter school year reduces that year's learning by 1%. Hot school days disproportionately impact minority students, accounting for roughly 5% of the racial achievement gap.”

“They want equal opportunities for everyone else’s children, extra for their own” Young (1958) wrote in his seminal work on meritocracy. My JMP “Unleveling the playing field? Experimental evidence on parents’ willingness to give their children an advantage”, puts it to the test!

Congratulations Guido Imbens on winning the Nobel Prize in Economics! An extremely well-deserved win (with David Card and Josh Angrist) for causal inference which has changed the direction of the entire field of economics and almost all of its subfields. Go @Stanford Econ!
