Maybe it's only for me, but I have to make some effort to re-adjust myself to Japan (my country of origin) every time I go back there. I feel I have to behave like a local because I look local.

I don't have to do this when I come back to Europe.

Is there a country other than Japan where people use this emoji 🙇? I often use it with my Japanese colleagues, but a colleague in my uni (in 🇳🇱) was surprised to see me using it 🙈 I understand you, I also think it's very strange...

Not sure I have the bandwidth to learn another social media platform, but here goes...my first post here:)

Excited to share a new paper:

Hello #EconSky, I need help! I have the following empirical CDFs and want to test: the blue line is not on the left of the other lines (H0).

The figure seems to be consistent with H0. But someone asked me whether it was due to the small sample size. How could I argue it is not the case?

Wow just read the best freaking post by @economeager.bsky.social

This is literally the most important advice. This should be framed and posted in every department. The hammer hits people into the anvil too often.

"Women spend so much more energy being nice to people in the workplace! When will they ever get credit for that?!” This audience question is common in our public talks about research on gender equality in the labor market. Our new paper gives striking evidence on this point. 1/7

I am very happy to share that our paper, “Pension reform preferences in Germany: Does information matter?” (joint with S. Uebelmesser, R. Baginski and C. Aprea) has been accepted at the European Journal of Political Economy! www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
