Ein fatales Dauerzeichen der Regierung: Schuld an der Krise seid ihr, die Bürger - und nicht wir, die Politik, die 20 Jahre lang keine Ideen entwickelt und nichts reformiert hat.

The "smartphones/social media" discourse suffers from some amazing historical amnesia. There was no 2008 financial crisis and no global pandemic starting in 2020, it's all SCREENS SCREENS SCREENS. Major world events? Just the backdrop against which SCREENS happened.

How is separation after childbirth linked to the labour earnings trajectories of mothers in Sweden and West Germany? Are there differences by mothers’ socioeconomic position?

I think there is a fundamental tension with full open APIs and information and an increasingly autocratic US as well as LLMs needing training data. Anything you post here can be used by both.

We just spent 6 months to add 1 figure to this paper. Some people said, "Couples aren't prioritizing men's careers. Men just have better earnings opportunities when moving."

Earnings effects of moves for couples on the left, singles on the right. Negligible gap between single men and women.
