Remote Work Solidifies Traditional Roles: New Causal Evidence on Gender Inequality Post-Covid
Alipour: "Does Remote Work Reinforce Gender Gaps in (Un)Paid Labor?" CRC Discussion Paper No. 542
Does job flexibility foster gender equality? On the contrary. Our new paper reveals that the shift to working from home significantly intensifies gender gaps in both paid hours and care-giving among couples.

How well do people predict the results of studies?
@sdellavi.bsky.social and I leverage data from the first 100 studies to have been posted on the SSPP, containing 1,482 key questions, on which over 50,000 forecasts were placed. Some surprising results below.... 🧵👇

The Economic Impact of Brexit

Still reeling from the Stanford report on Brexit. Reduced GDP by up to 8% and investment by as much as 18%. The UK Treasury would have £40 billion more each year if Britain had remained in the EU. Devastating self-immolation.

Merz still stands by his minister ...
What's so hard about realizing what a conflict of interest is, and fixing it?

Most people hear “heat pump” and think of small air-source units at home. But Germany is building one of the world’s largest heat pumps in Mannheim: a 162 MW river-source system using heat from the Rhine.
Big reminder that heat-pumps scale far beyond households — they can decarbonise whole cities.

As co-editor, I once got the advice "the reviewer selection is the key step - do it with utmost diligence". When inviting reviewers, I therefore wrote 2 or 3 personal sentences lines to each, explaining why I need them. Never had any trouble with people not responding etc. But it was long ago.

The minister has now transferred his 50% company share to a trustee.
Good but not good. Does it eliminate the appearance of a conflict of interest?
No. If his political actions influence the company‘s earnings, he will have access to the additional earnings immediately after his public service.
