@JoelWWood Also damages are convex, implying the more others pollute the higher the marginal damages of an additional tonne. Meaning we should do more reductions not less.

@cblatts Damn. I’ve had similar injury, sorry! 2 months is speedy, wishing my best. Start rehab early. PTs working with athletes / sport injuries are better at rehab for returning to activity, IMO.

@carly_urban @DrBritWilliams I regret not doing this 👆sooner! Having fun used to be a reward for when I felt satisfied with my work. But research is not like a race with finish line and cheering crowds, it's more like a treadmill and it's important to let yourself step off.

[Dana Andersen @danacandersen]

@JuraWho I do see a decline after 30 minutes, either you are reducing effort or becoming less stressed.

[Dana Andersen @danacandersen]

@JuraWho I agree. You could experiment and sit down while lecturing? After 8+ years I still have adrenaline, but it's usually only at start of lectures before my mind is fully occupied by the topic. My garmin measures stress as function of HRV (lower=+stress), not sure it's reliable

Castle mountain, Banff. 13 pitches of fun climbing and some awesome views.

[Dana Andersen @danacandersen]

Feeling incredibly lucky to climb the same rock as some legendary climbers on Mount Yamnuska.

[Dana Andersen @danacandersen]

@sorentanderson @JaereAere It's akin to the main text using an external bib file, so it should work in theory. Good luck!

[Dana Andersen @danacandersen]

@sorentanderson @JaereAere You might need both files in same folder, and compile each a couple of times.

[Dana Andersen @danacandersen]

@sorentanderson @JaereAere I think so. In preamble to main text add 2 lines: \externaldocument{appendix_name_here}
\externalcitedocument{appendix_name_here}

You've heard of a parking meter that charges for parking. Have you heard of the work METR that charges you for working?

Enough.

Make work pay.

This is the fruition of long-term investments and talented people starting careers in the province decades ago. These investments are currently being reversed, and we will see the effects years from now. #ableg #abpse #ualberta

The U of A has landed in the world's top 100 for the first time ever in the @ShanghaiRanking #ARWU, placing 92nd in the world and fifth in Canada. #UAlberta https://t.co/exyd3t2PZ3

The UCP used taxpayer $ to study min wages, realized the study wouldn't help politically, and buried it. This is a misuse of public funds, but harm goes further. Censorship undermines trust in what experts communicate to the public and discourages experts from offering research.

This is great news for us in the Economics Dept. I'm thrilled to have you as a colleague, Andrew! Congrats.

[Andrew Leach 🇨🇦 @andrew_leach]

Some personal news, as they say. As of July 1, I was promoted to Professor in the Alberta School of Business at @ualberta. And, on August 1, after 16 years @UAlbertaBiz, I'll be moving to a joint appointment in the Department of Economics and the Faculty of Law at @ualberta. 1/5
