- With @overleaf.com down, here's a quick tip to keep working. If you're already syncing overleaf with Dropbox, you can still find your files in Dropbox/Apps/Overleaf Install the latex extension in vscode or download an editor like texstudio. Should take 15 mins or less to get set up! #econsky
- If you're headed to SF for ASSA/AEA next month, and don't know what to do about hotel workers' strike, this is a thoughtful read.

See this analysis @shirkandsteal.bsky.social @jennifercohen.bsky.social & me, & our call to support 3 small ASSA policy changes #EconSky aaronsojourner.org/hotel-worker...
