The movie of the same name, though unrelated, is vastly better.

Steve, already ahead of you! Thanks for the rec!

Personally, and it’s really me and all of the world in unison. Stop fucking holding your 6 year olds giant birthday at a brewery on Friday night. Please just do better and give a shit about everyone else who isn’t you.

Everyone is a fan of upside volatility. Not so much the symmetric part. I tell my students to hit the giant corporate treasury jobs. If you are good there, you’ll be set for life.

Ummm. I can’t find the fact-checked expert-driven media, can you point me there? Is it just Pew, ProPublica, and Stat? (I did write a paper using news deserts…)

It’s in Section 2, Parts e and f of Article XIIIA, part f, purchase of comparable property vs reconstruction is particularly interesting! Thanks all for pointing me to it!

Thanks a lot!

Thanks, I hadn’t heard that! That’s super helpful, do you have a link?

I think one of the most under-appreciated parts of this carnage is its relation to Prop 13. My reading (?) is that the rebuilding of homes would reset to market value, making property taxes exponentially higher than before. Will there be loopholes? Something I’m pondering…

As an occasional drunk and student of history, this is a microcosm of why Democrats lose elections.

People who didnt live in 170 Rome need to stop acting like they broed down with Marcus Arelius. In fact, if you don’t speak old Latin, shut the fuck up about Arete.

Does alcohol use drop in January relative to trend? Do prices fall in response to Dry January? Anecdotally no, but maybe #EconSky can document deep drops in beer prices in January, sort of like the 70s asset pricing anomaly. I wait!

I’m also considering area as a weight in county-level regressions because of the serious cross state differences in county assignment, but then again, I’m likely crazy

So population as a weight is super weird to me, because it essentially only selects urban areas. Ln(pop) is interesting, but I feel more strongly that estimators should match on density because city and country ain’t the same.

Dog smelling flowers

Cat yawning

For my first post, I’ll be encouraging everyone to stop and smell the flowers, like Rockford. And deal with stress like Snowflake.
