Så fik jeg lejlighed til at samle tankerne om differentieret moms og andre afgifter. Tak til @altingetdk.bsky.social for at bringe det.

Jeg har strikket til mine døtre.

DESVÆRRE har Sigrid (hende med hættetrøjen) mistet sin på baren Osborne på Nørrebro i København i fredags. Hun vil blive mega glad (og også moren, der så ikke skal strikke en ny 😌) hvis den dukker op igen. Vil I dele?

Heya #EconSky,

has anyone read the recent @nber.org WP on "Uncertainty in Empirical" Econ by Shorfheide and You?

Based on a quick look this morning
- this is interesting!
- I need more time to read it and someone to discuss it with

Just got my first BOOX tab ultra c pro ebook reader!

I am super happy with it so far but eager to hear if anybody has some good tips/tricks/apps for scientific use.

(I have synced my papers using FolderSync with dropbox)

Just using the build in reader for now.

30 years after arriving in the US, I just resigned from Northwestern and we sold our house.

We are an American family, I became a citizen in 2014, and until recently did not expect to ever leave. But now, this no longer feels like the right place to raise a family and pursue a research career.

🚨Report your NSF grant terminations! 🚨

We are starting to collect information on NSF grant terminations to create a shared resource as we have for NIH. The more information we collect, the more we can organize, advocate, and fight back! Please share widely!

NSF Grant Termination Information Collection Form Please use this form to submit information identifying specific NSF grants that have been cancelled for any reason after January 20, 2025. We are tracking these grants to increase transparency, organize affected PIs, and facilitate responses, including via litigation. Please share the form as widely as possible with your networks. We are actively building a pipeline to organize these terminations and will soon have a tracker akin to our NIH grant tracker at https://airtable.com/appjhyo9NTvJLocRy/shrNto1NNp9eJlgpA WE WILL NOT DISCLOSE THE IDENTITY OF ANYONE WHO USES THIS FORM TO PROVIDE INFORMATION. We will keep your identity confidential. These resources are maintained by Noam Ross of rOpenSci and Scott Delaney of the Harvard T.H.

This statement from the NSF is insane.

Science is, in essence, designed to separate the true from the false.

Understanding how falsehoods spread is key to the scientific endeavor. It is not a violation of free speech to be proven wrong.
