The closing of the tabs...
- When I tweet my columns, probably best to thread them with the link to the column coming late in the thread, and maybe a screenshot of part of the column in the lead tweet. Twitter's downweighting tweets with links.
- Meta pulls back from news in Europe. There was so much wishful thinking among the bien pensant about the ability to extort platforms to pay for news. I think NZ media still believe it. It won't end well.
- Is there a betting market on the John Bates Clark? I'd be putting some money on Seamus's former student David Baqaee.
- Immigrant entrepreneurship in Canada and location choice. Canada's just so well-placed to take advantage of American xenophobia.
- New York bans AirBnB. NZ's hoteliers would very much like to pull this kind of trick too.
- Man but Works in Progress are putting out great stuff. Judge Glock (that's just his name, he's not a judge) on local government anti-growth incentives in the US. And Sarygulov & Arslanagic-Wakefield on understanding the Baby Boom (hint: housing costs matter).
- Great long essays from Scott Wilson on NZ Land Transport Policy. Part 1 on the history. Part 2 on what's wrong with the current system. Part 3 on fixing the mess. I had a podcast chat about some of this with Scott, in context of the Government Policy Statement, late last week.
