Trying to keep up with all the smart kids!

Reach out if you have questions!
Is someone on here an expert in the short- and long-run effects of government shutdowns on workers and/or local economies?
I'd love to read a thread about what to expect.
Things I hope continue here:
People sharing their new papers.
People promoting conferences.
People complaining about econometrics.
Policy discussions.
Threads promoting job market candidates.
Comments on new macro-data.
Offers to help junior people and grad students.
What do you hope continues?
