Wow. This is wild. Researchers from Columbia, Michigan, and Maryland released VRscores. VRscores is a dataset linking voter registrations to online worker profiles that allow you to measure the partisan leanings of U.S. employers. 24.5M workers. 500k employers. 2012–2024.

Finally, our paper on the pervasiveness of corporate fraud is in print. It has a simple, but important, result: On average 10% of large publicly traded firms commit a relevant fraud every year, costing equityholders $830 billion a year. rdcu.be/c2RhV

In most econ applications, clustering std errors is a problem of design, not sampling. What does that mean? Clustering is needed if treatment assignment is correlated within clusters, not because some clusters were sampled and others were not. 1/8 @jmwooldridge

For those of you who have not been admitted to Econ PhD programs... The first time I applied, I was rejected everywhere. I worked for a year, took a breath, and tried again. Not my first failure, certainly not my last. But it was worth it to take another shot.

One of my pet peeves is when reviewers say something like “I was not surprised by these results” or “these results were not surprising” as a criticism of the paper. You’re not at a magic show, it’s not my job to surprise you.
