Possibly, but I do think it’s funny how every month or two this sentiment is brought up, and in alternating months there’s a somehow disconnected discourse about why this site is not growing

Just FYI the link appears broken

Cowardly seems too strong a word, surely the one quarter+ of foreign born professors at US universities are not cowards for taking the best option for themselves

Wow! Do you say even yes to journals you’ve never heard of? And you recommend it?

Are these goods that stay in Hungary, or is some of this using Hungary as the EU gateway?

I hate do-operators in DAG (sim city for epidemiologists mercs and clinician investigators) as much as I hate waterfall diagrams and trial emulations(*) and only slightly less than I hate kale.

(*) be honest it is just an observational study, which can be quite valuable without the emulation hype

Currently debating whether my contribution is “novel” or just so dumb no one’s done it before.

It seems to me that like a lot of stacked DiD studies there isn’t a real “first stage” available. What we really want is the effect of a minimum wage change for those that the minimum wage is binding.

Review and Publication Times and Reporting Across Journals on Health Policy This cross-sectional study compares how a broad range of journals vs a narrow set of specialty journals report and measure review and publication times and assesses these patterns across journals.

Our study in JAMA Network Open found review & publication times across health policy journals often missing or murky, with wide variability. Need more transparency, standardization, & analysis of how to achieve fast dissemination but also high quality. jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

How do I subscribe to this

High-Deductible Health Plans and Receipt of Guideline-Concordant Care This cohort study examines receipt of guideline-concordant health care among individuals with chronic illness enrolled in high-deductible health plans compared with those enrolled in non–high-deductib...

New paper alert! Are you in a high-deductible health plan (HDHP)? Chances are you or someone you know are. We studied whether ppl with chronic illness can get the care they need in these plans. Read on for more! 1/n

I think most Americans don’t realize how rich the US is

I would imagine a good portion search for positions, see the salaries, and change their mind

The number of people Ive known for a while suddenly asking to connect on LinkedIn is…unsettling

Medicare prospective payment was initially a demonstration project

This indeed seems very good, but I can’t help agree with the person in the last passage about another attempt that won’t go anywhere. Do we think this one is different?

You won’t miss it

Did everyone else know that journals use offshore staffing companies for editorial staff or is this news to just me

My understanding is that unless/until something changes, all VA researchers will be terminated this way within the next 3 years

The most popular politicians in America | Politics | YouGov Ratings The most popular politicians in America according to YouGov Ratings. Popularity is based on millions of responses from the American public and YouGov's innovative survey methodology.

A well known stylized fact is that Americans approve of their rep but not Congress. So you can do this with any three. But the three you picked are actually quite popular!

What is the test? They all easily won their elections so they are in fact popular

This compares pretty favorably to other care systems, but interestingly, we could not find other work that breaks it down by patient and clinic reasons for cancellation

About 10-11% of VA primary care appointments are either missed or cancelled the day of the appointment. About one-third of that is VA cancelling on the patient.

I think if it said “differences in trends” the answer is true (in the sense that there is evidence against the assumption) but if it said “differences in levels” the answer is false.

Anyway ‘fect’ and ‘did2s’ both have nice formal tests

I think the poll just doesn’t specify if it’s a difference in levels or trends

I have the same question, but my sense is it seems to be risk aversion.

lol amazing

You would think! But if you login to a particular MC for the first time with Orc ID, they still want that particular MC password

I thought they counteracted this by making you change your password every time

It definitely feels like overleaf is out of growth mode
