- "Because our students enter into Income Share Agreements (ISAs), in which successful graduates "pay it forward" to the next generation, the impact is in potentially unbounded." Amazing work. (Also a nice bonus that @johanneshaushofer.com is a shining light in the academy)

- An incredible read.

- I finally made the switch to R from stata, and as a fierce long-time defender of stata, I can concede that R is leagues better in almost every way. Still, I do wish there was an easier way to diagnose merges w/o complicated code. GPT hasn't helped, and joyn doesn't seem to do it right. Any advice?

- Today I gave a talk in Rome and choked up reflecting on the rare, incredible bonds that unite the global academic community. No matter where we're from, we speak the same language & believe in the same things (progress, truth, science). What an honor to belong here, even in these tumultuous times.
- Every day, they break things that will never be unbroken again. I grieve those, but I knew I would. What I didn't expect to grieve is my faith and belief in the good of my fellow people. Wondering if the person I nod to in the street *wanted* all this, is ok with it all. I mourn that loss deeply.
- Reposted by Manasvini Singh🚨 Action alert: Two days left!! Help protect NSF/NIH from political interference. 👎 A new rule (Sched. F) would allow for replacing career program officers with political appointees. ➡️ Action: Object here by THIS FRIDAY. Comments can be brief and/or anonymous. Helps future litigation.
