It's a very sad day. Just notified that @iza.org is closing its doors as of 31 December 2025. At a time when labor is under attack and technological change moves at an ever-faster pace, I can't help but think that this is a short-sighted decision. My heart goes out to those folks who work there.

The world is awful. The world is much better. The world can be much better. All three statements are true at the same time. Understanding this is key to solving big global problems. We believe data & research can help us understand both the problems we face & the progress that’s possible. 🧵

Eine interessante Recherche von @spiegelmagazin.bsky.social zeigt qualitative Fälle von sanktionierten russischen Oligarchen, die in Berlin Immobilien besitzen/besaßen. Sie verstecken sich hinter Briefkastenfirmen welche als Besitzer eingetragen werden. 1/10 www.spiegel.de/panorama/jus...

Gestern meistgelesen in der SZ, noch vor Sahra Wagenknecht: Steuerhinterzieher sind viel ehrlicher geworden. Die gute Nachricht trifft offenbar einen Nerv. Vielen scheint es wichtig zu sein, dass niemand sich davor drückt, das Gemeinwesen mitzufinanzieren. www.sueddeutsche.de/wirtschaft/s...

Next stop New Haven! Was positively surprised how reliable the Amtrak trains are - maybe just compared to my recent experiences with the trains in Germany.
