Application review:

Response within 24h: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Greeted with “Moin”: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
No H1B sponsorship: ⭐️

Would apply again.

On the bright side, when others proceed similar, at least the response rate to my applications is going up compared to two years ago. 🙃

🚨 Our new investigation out today reveals how thousands of people who've taken their bosses to employment tribunals & won, never got paid, even after they approached the government for help.

This has serious implications for the Employment rights bill.

Thousands of rogue bosses get away with not paying tribunal awards
The government scheme ‘enforcing’ money owed to workers has been unsuccessful in a staggering three-quarters of cases

Check out this scatterplot of health spending per capita (x axis) & life expectancy (y axis) in OECD countries (lines = averages).

The United States sits alone in the bottom right area due to its very high spending rate and below-average life expectancy.

I am excited to spend this Fall in London at UCL/@sriucl.bsky.social. I already had the chance to provide first insights into Captured by Conflict.

I love this place! They have a monthly coffee RCT, randomly pairing people up for chats. Worse places to be for a coffee loving experimentalist.

New from @arindube.bsky.social and me: the minimum wage own-wage elasticity repository, an online collection of estimates of employment responses to minimum wage changes.

In contrast to a lot of “sky is falling” scenarios, most studies estimate small negative or positive employment effects.
