I have a PhD and consider myself a fairly sophisticated user of technology, but I have failed after multiple attempts to access the academic readiness results that my kids' school district has allegedly placed online. There's got to be a better way.

Paul Niehaus + Pierre Azoulay are incredibly inspiring mentors, researchers, and individuals -- I couldn't recommend this J-PAL/MIT Sloan post-doc in the economics of innovation / metascience more highly as an invaluable opportunity to work with and learn from them. aeaweb.org/joe/listing....
