Das #Sondierungspapier enthält mit Steuerantlastungen für Investitionen und Arbeitseinkommen gut Ansätze, es fehlen aber konkrete Ausgabenkürzungen, denn Rüstung sollte nur vorübergehend mit Schulden finanziert werden. Das muss in den Koalitionsverhandlungen kommen.

OpenAI has launched Operator, an agent that can perform tasks in your browser. I asked it to complete a Qualtrics survey I created. The results are very promising for Operator but *very* concerning for survey researchers

Heute ist ein sehr trauriger Tag für alle Aktiven, Ehemaligen und Freunde der ifo Niederlassung Dresden. Mit Unverständnis sehe ich die Kürzungen des Freistaats in der Wissenschaft. Die VWL-Standort an der TU Dresden schrumpft damit weiter. 1/ tagesschau.de/inland/regiona….

Wow! This project looks amazing. In it, three scientists at Columbia, Michigan, and Maryland introduce VRscores: a measure of the partisan leanings of employers in the United States. The dataset is constructed by linking U.S. voter registrations to online worker profiles.

Bei den steuerlichen Themen in #Koalitionsvertrag gibt es zwei richtig gute Nachrichten (und viele weniger gute). Zuerst zu den guten: 1.) Unternehmen werden sinnvoll entlastet: degressive Afa ab sofort für drei Jahre macht Investitionen JETZT attraktiv. Langfristig ergänzt 1/

🚨 New #Publication: We tracked how policy and parenthood reshaped gender inequality in Germany from the 1960s to today. In early decades, only 14% of the gender gap was due to kids—now it's 64%. How did children become the biggest factor?🧵 🧑‍🤝‍🧑w/Hansen,Dominik Sachs & Lüthen
