Highly endorse the WAYB Pico portable car seat for 2Y toddler travel. Lightweight, foldable, installs easily in any car, very safe, and straps into the plane seat (less to check and kid can’t unbuckle himself). Mid-flight referee reports are back!

If you are a PhD student doing a replication project for class, why not apply for this and become a co-author on a nice meta-replication paper? Everybody wins :-)
Seeking advice - I resubmitted a manuscript on June 30 (initial decision was reject and resubmit). It was sent to review and all reviews were received as of Aug 3. System has shown ‘editor decision started’ since August 5. Do I ping the editor or just keep waiting “patiently”?
DM or email me if interested. Open dates are 9/22, 9/29, 10/6, 10/20. Workshop meets 1:40-3:40pm and you can join by zoom (unless you are local or have your own travel budget). Circulate manuscript 7 days before, 75 min presentation including q&a, workshopping after.
For any job market candidates (or advanced PhD students) in Dev Econ: I have a few open slots left in our grad development workshop at UGA. Give a full seminar length presentation and get feedback from students and dev faculty (@matfilipski@ShanjuktaN).

@eeshani_kandpal Thanks for sharing this @eeshani_kandpal - it is crazy how many fields of economics are crammed into “development” simply because of where the data are collected. And we should absolutely reconsider what “general interest” means!
