Environmental organizations create or make changes to 1000s of programs each year, but rarely do they deliberately design these innovations to learn about impacts or to test our implicit models of how the world works. We can do better. science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

Today DHS unveiled a regulatory plan to severely restrict international students & exchange visitors, by making it difficult for them to stay in the US for their full duration of study. Let's dive into this latest thicket of useless red tape... 1/ federalregister.gov/document…

"I'm glad to see you're not devoting all your time to pot or the guitar" - I had a class from Akerlof and this not something I would have expected Solow to worry about, even in 1967.
Eu estou apaixonado por essa carta do Solow para o Akerlof (que havia mudado para Berkeley após o PhD no MIT). Assim conversam dois prêmios Nobel

Research by @PurdueKrannert Professor @Tim_Cason shows that women, more so than men, prefer not to impose negative externalities on others and make more prosocial choices. #NoBeC2018 #groupdecisionmaking #socialnorms #behavioralchange
