I’m very sad to share that Ned Phelps passed away last night. Ned was my undergraduate advisor and the reason I’m an economist. He was beyond brilliant but more importantly an amazing human being. His deep curiosity about the world will always be a lodestar for me.

“When I grew up I did become a scientist, a social scientist. I’m an economist, which allows me to study how we humans coordinate and cooperate and compete with each other, in ways that have made us, on average, live longer and healthier lives.”

Someone asked how the growth in working papers on SSRN compared to other websites. SSRN vs. NBER vs. ArXiv papers per month -- interesting to see the lack of "ChatGPT" response in NBER relative to Arxiv -- SSRN looks more mixed but clearly trending way up.

Added indirect inference to estimate the QoL effect of density by matching causal reduced-form estimates in the model => more realistic counterfactuals. Quick read

Here’s a graph from the Economist showing GDP data from official government sources versus private estimates. Free countries, like the US, don’t manipulate econ data. Less free countries do. Trump is seeking to break that for short-term PR. (Yes I know GDP is BEA and not BLS.)
