in the last two weeks, I’ve made snide comments to at least four drivers facetiming while passing them on my bike.
We’ve 100% lost the war on using phones while driving and it’s the worst.

after much deliberation, I succumbed and bought the $89 amazon doctoral regalia rather than renting it for $75 or buying the real stuff for $1370.

well, it finally happened #econsky.

my partner is out with friends, my kid’s aftercare spot is doing an “after dark” special, and I’m… eating dinner and drinking a beer solo while reading an @ecmaeditors.bsky.social paper on my phone at the bar.

today, i allowed myself some excitement about research for the first time in a long time by looking at some dormant papers that need to be revised and sent back out, just as a little treat, as i feel the end of the semester approaching. 📈📉

sure, things are terrible in america, but I got quoted by local public radio about riding bikes to school with my kindergartener.

apropos of nothing, if any Swiss universities want to pay me many millions of dollars/francs to move to Europe, my email is publicly available.

having spent the day fighting jet lag by drinking espresso, eating stroopwafels and French fries, and drinking Dutch beer, while watching bicycles whiz around, I regret to inform you that it is no longer a fair coin flip.
coin flip on whether I decide to come back at this point. I’ll just send for the family and dogs.

one very low-stakes annoyance I have is how fantasy football win projections assume that points accumulate linearly throughout a game.

I don’t have a better idea, but incorporating some larger margin of uncertainty feels appropriate.

one of the worst parts of being a journal editor is that you develop a greater sense of empathy for other editors and thus end up saying yes to way too many referee requests. #econsky
