Exactly 1 year ago I was given 2 weeks to live. Last week I taught 4 days of executive MBA, cancer-free for nearly 7 months and the healthiest in years. It took a lot of simple luck, support, biotech, and grit. It doesn't feel like victory. Just lucky survival. But I am back.

@OrgStratProf I view it differently at ManSci, which is that a TC could involve new theory, unique and robust evidence on existing theory, destroying theory, or empirical results that suggest the need for better theory. Or awesome new data. But I am of little use to you!

For those of you now concerned with national security, they’re doing this with your medical visits as well, and more. Hope this finally spurs some congressional action on privacy rights.

Strategy translation: "Uber short-term losses decrease as Uber stops investing only (meager) hope for long-term profitability."

Uber losses dramatically improve thanks to sale of self-driving unit

Uber's first-quarter net loss was $108 million, a tremendous improvement from a $968 million loss in its fourth quarter of 2020.

@jpeggers What I like about this thread is that it raises the role of academics as watchdogs. I believe we are, and have no problem with most uses of scraped data for non commercial purposes. Very different than the Ashley Madison data that partly motivated policy.

My own interests are in papers with big implications for organizational performance and social and individual welfare. I am particularly interested in understudied populations, such as Delecourt and @AnneFitz13 on Ugandian mother-run businesses.

@LauraHuangLA Really sorry. I’ve only once issued a rejection after an R&R. It’s incredibly costly for everyone. I view it as a nuclear option. But it does mean as an editor I have to be extremely careful in issuing R&Rs, and sometimes quite patient with weak resubmissions. But some disagree.

A great clarification that field experiments don't in fact support gains from loss-framing. Two points to add: 1. Our theory shows how loss-framing can produce either gains or losses; 2. Research design (and thus evidential) strength varies across these few field experiments.

In applications of behavioral science to policy, magnitudes matter. Unfortunately, magnitudes are often exaggerated in academic research. ⬇️: Estimated effect on productivity from framing incentives as losses rather than gains is large in lab & just above zero in the field. [1/8]

1. Schools have pushed earlier and earlier to grab good candidates with exploding offers in what is effectively a “race to the bottom.” There are many good reasons why we should standardize market and offer timing to protect candidates.

I have to say that spy software would not show me as productive the last couple of weeks. While there is a place for employee monitoring, this is not a good knee-jerk reaction to pandemic-induced remote work. Managers can do better. @ethanbernstein

I've enjoyed seeing so many great papers, and have had the honor of working with remarkable AEs. This has always been an aspiration of mine, and it lived up to expectations. If your paper is already with me, I will attempt to handle it in the coming weeks or when it returns. 2/n

I am committed to an efficient and fair evaluation and revision process, which was difficult for nearly all editors and journals in the last two years. I want authors who receive revision requests to feel they have clear guidance for a path to publication through a few rounds.

Congrats to both of you on a great paper. But everyone should know that you got a first round "minor revision", so it didn't need much help! Except maybe to not ask you to change much. It's easy to be an editor with great AEs that pick great reviewers for great submissions.

"Low-Wage Workers and the Enforceability of Non-Compete Agreements" with @MichaelLipsitz is now out in Management Science! Huge thanks to @LamarPierce1 and the editorial team for an excellent review process that made the paper markedly better!

2. Early exploding offers force candidates into inefficient matches on average. These are bad for candidates and bad for schools (see Al Roth for questions). They are inevitable, given the staggered timing of hires, which is an argument for standardization.
