Fantastic job market paper from @vincent_rollet. Highlights key problem for upzoning — what can be built is shaped by the past. You need to demolish the small before you can build the large. This revises down the gains from upzoning, which accrue mainly to movers. 1/
RIP to this classic
i think the Ezra Klein/Ta-Nehisi Coates conversation is fascinating because it’s clear both men articulate their arguments entirely from a place of good faith, but their respective positions can’t be reconciled imo because Coates is a student of history & Klein is one of politics

btw my hit job piece on econ would be: 1. we choose topics too much based on whether there is data and a chance at credible identification, not because they matter 2. Theorists mostly talk to each other 3. Experimentalists need to tone down on external validity (1/2)

A lot of dunks on this, but it’s not clear based on what. I don’t know the terms, but seems like data centers are a bad deal for city: temporary construction but then very few jobs (50-200 people), drain on resources (which, as we know, are underpriced). What are the benefits?

I’ve heard this comment several times in replies, so let me explain why Marx’s labor theory of value has no empirical content i.e., no observable inputs/outputs for testing or prediction. But is still conceptually useful as means of thinking about power in systems of exchange 🧵

@RJSWtrilogyWhen @wideofthepost The left (Marxist / DSA or adjacent) needs to stop flattening debates w signifiers like “deregulation” or “neoliberalism” or “capitalism” or “centrist” that obfuscates actual policy context details into over-simplified friend/enemy ideological battles
