I disagree with this post almost completely. Done right, a reasonable paper limit is not "asking scientists to slow down" because progress isn't measured in the number of "papers." It's the old salami. Write a good, thorough paper, instead of 10 padded slopbombs or inconsequential mini-pies

Turns out the problem with two-way fixed effects is that it performs badly when there is effect heterogeneity, rather than...whatever it was we were arguing about? That's why the new models perform better.

"Not always towards the null: reconsidering the direction of overadjustment bias" - read our new paper in the @intjepidemiol.bsky.social led by Frerik Smit! Overadjustment for a mediator is often thought to 'bias towards the null', but the bias can be in any direction - as the paper explains!
