Most people can't fathom how those in a war-torn country still manage to live their lives. But having experienced it firsthand, I'm convinced: even if the sky comes crashing down, people will keep getting up in the morning and going to work.

There is something so sweet about the human capacity for enthusiasm. For a few days everyone in LA has been glued to Watch Duty and getting in the weeds of how water drops work. Now there are people out here who honestly have a favorite water plane that they are following closely and rooting for.

I have an op-ed in the NYT today about how to reduce crime.
The key idea, based on decades of strong research evidence: focus on increasing the probability of getting caught, not the punishment.

For a while inflation was coming in surprisingly better than expected. But that is no longer the case. There are two more months of data to go but looks like core PCE inflation this year (Q4/Q4) will be about 2.9%. That would be at least a touch above EVERY median FOMC forecast.
