Here’s one explanation for why we haven’t seen tariff driven price hikes yet!

All one needs to know about ili incidence is that tests are in short supy

It annoying that outward shifts in demand raise both price and quantity in the short run. And we're busy cancelling power projects that would reduce price in the long-run 🤦‍♂️

Oh no. This is bagel violence breadflavors.com/types-of-bag...

Honestly is anyone surprised that Bill Clinton is in the Epstein files. I mean we have known for over twenty years that he is a predator. www.rawstory.com/bill-clinton...

A recommendation from ACIP is hugely significant for the half of American children who get their vaccines from the Vaccines for Children program since they only cover RECOMMENDED vaccines.

listening to a podcast about RFK and I'm reminded of a story from one of the first criminal trials using DNA evidence. the scientists had their own meeting to resolve the science without the lawyers. Scientists start from evidence and draw conclusions. Advocates have a position and seek evidence.

Am I the only one who thinks "deathstar" when I see the moon in daylight?

Apparently he truly does have a very special set of skills. SAdly just like Taken those skills are awful

Given all of the Denmark is the greatest for vaccines coming from people like TBH it's worth noting that my cousins in Denmark were fucking pissed at the slow rollout of the COVID vaccine

Omfg. Learn to deal with stuff. Not everything that bothers people needs a legal intervention. www.rawstory.com/jd-vance-267...

The basic failure to understand research ethics among the acip goon squad is disheartening. At least try to write an IRB protocol you fucking nitwits.

Ugh. Realized I've been trying to regenerate results that used 2010 census bpock groups with data at the 2020 census block group level 🤦‍♂️

I’m finally leaving Chicago and following Bovino to Charlotte on Thursday. If you’re in the area and have any leads on finding CBP/ICE/DHS, dm me for my number.

This isn't rocket science. ANY student who has passed a principles of microeconomics course should be able to explain this at the Thanksgiving table, the week where I have an open lecture day

Has anyone seen a paper using regularization to manage noise in event studies? I’ve got an idea that I’ve been toying with that should reduce the point to point noise in event studies (and may yield more precise honest bounds on did estimates)

PSA for people with NIH grant periods starting January 1st (including most NIGMS MIRAs): your RPPR is due Saturday, but they haven’t sent out the usual automated reminders, presumably due to the shutdown

I've seen this go by a few times on TikTok now and I have to say, I love this idea. We need a way to convince people to keep running even if they don't win, maybe building the loss into it as a troll move is the secret.

@kavehmd.bsky.social I'm sure you have thoughts about this! Likewise @iwriteok.bsky.social too.

I'd be happy to record my principles lecture on the incidence of taxes. It might be illuminating to Sauer

Uhhhhh. This doesn't sound like the AI boom is going to keep booming. More like a crash boom!

This is a Christianity I recognize from my(limited) Sunday school in the Danish Seamen's church. One that focuses on a supportive social mission, not a mission to deride the poor and spread misery on the "undeserving”

This is such a great idea. I would love to be able to park under a solar panel and avoid the hot sun heating up my car.

Pennsylvania has an important Supreme Court race coming up on Tuesday, November 4. If you live in the Keystone State, or know someone who does, vote YES to retain three justices who will protect your fundamental rights and freedoms.

This is something I am looking into using mobility data. I haven't been able to look at Chicago yet (feed hasn't updated yet) but I've seen some evidence of similar drop offs in DC and LA during earlier periods. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/17/u...

Literally at a meeting yesterday and someone was saying how hallucinations are no longer an issue .... 🤔

Waiting for some resignations and denunciations

This take is unbelievably stupid. The Animus is long-standing and reflects events from January to March of 2016.

The program I work for, @scifri.bsky.social, is one of the programs that WNYC Studios is offering free to affected stations. Heads up, station friends!

Genuinely a historic speech/monologue defending America and her true values against the fascists. THIS is the kind of stuff that makes me proud to be an American.

Wow. @jimmykimmel.com was on fire last night and hit so many great points.

@kavehmd.bsky.social how about 300 shots of colonoscopy prep?

Astute take on the stakes from @emptywheel.bsky.social www.emptywheel.net/2025/09/22/t...

If you live in NYC and have successfully managed to obtain a 2025 COVID vaccine for your under-12 child, I'd love to know where.

Arjun Srinivasan has figured out how to talk to this ACIP. Basically explain it at a kindergarten level.

What Trump said is a fucking outrage. It’s against democracy. If Donald Trump has his way on this, our democracy is over.

With Hepatitis B vaccination under threat, here is one frustrating fact about testing for Hep B. It’s super complicated, based on multiple tests. I’ve often consulted this chart to interpret tests, and occasionally ended up in the dreaded “four interpretations possible” section.

Didn't Malone say he didn't have any conflicts of interest? Apparently he has contracts that affect his participation in the MMRV discussion.

important pre-bunking of the misinformation ACIP is likely to discuss tomorrow. Unfortunately the new ACIP know how weak their evidence is so they (still) haven't posted the meeting materials

Part of me wants to create a "family tree" of the vaccine schedule showing how all of the currently.approved vaccines can be traced back to a study against a placebo control

FWIW, I’ve run the numbers & if the enhanced ACA tax credits *do* expire, my own families premiums will jump over $11,000 next year. On a completely unrelated note, if you find my healthcare wonkery useful & want to support it, you can do so here: secure.actblue.com/donate/acasi...

Gotta listen On the same day we got a survey about AI use…

Quarterly reporting primarily affects research analysts, not corporate behavior www.hks.harvard.edu/centers/mrcb...

Just out of curiosity, but how much of the AI VC money is coming from university endowments? I wonder if it's a substantial fraction and they are "talking up their book" with all this AI boosterism. @edzitron.com do you know/have thoughts?

Wtf. Is discrimination now legal?
