- Reposted by Hunter YorkEXTREMELY BAD NEWS for economic research, per former BLS Commissioner @ericagroshen.bsky.social on LinkedIn. BLS is suspending access to its restricted data "for the forseeable future." Applies to projects through the Federal Statistical Research Data Centers & onsite projects with BLS. #EconSky
- Sad to miss @isa-rc28.bsky.social in Milan, but I'm basically in Europe because a choir I'm in is performing Joby Talbot's Path of Miracles, a ~17 voice part and 4 movement "pilgrimage in music" following the Camino de Santiago. @tenebraechoir.bsky.social has a gr8 recording youtu.be/GPHcqHzzTC8?...

- (Big) Pub day! What was once a replication project for my first-year PhD stats class turned into a different beast. Read on for some thoughts on intergenerational mobility along axes of occupational characteristics. (Coauthors @xisong.bsky.social and Yu Xie) www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10.1086/...
- This work was originally motivated by the question of occupational "mobility" itself. While sociologists have plenty of theories of what explains immobility (class theory, micro-class theory), describing trends in inter-occupation movement is something we're not very good at.
