#EconSky: Tymofiy Mylovanov from the Kyiv School of Economics is a simply a hero. While Trump is busy allying with Putin, Tymofiy is out in the cold working for his students and his country. I will match all donations to KSE, up to $1K total (link below). www.youtube.com/shorts/RgDXI...

Today a student raised the bar for what’s required to visit me outside of my office hours.

In case anyone is interested, here is my latest contribution to DiD. In this case, nonlinear models with repeated cross sections. A (short) paper will be ready soon. It's nothing path breaking but shows the obvious extensions from the panel data case works. www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/lne2y...

Registration closes at 5 pm EST today!

Still time to sign up! Register on or before Dec 8. The group of attendees is shaping up nicely, and I'm looking forward to the online interactions. @msuecon.bsky.social @imbernomics.bsky.social

And here is a much better answer (from @noahgreifer.bsky.social al, citing @jmwooldridge.bsky.social) than my mumbling in response to the Poisson vs negbin question. stats.stackexchange.com/questions/65...

Hi! I’m Mary and I’m on the #EconJobMarket this year. Extreme heat doesn’t just affect students, it affects the people teaching them. JMP 🧵:

I was in New Orleans recently at a conference and I tried to reach out to Big Freedia. Apparently, we're not as tight as I thought. 😬

The times are not currently listed on the website: 10 am to 4 pm EST on both days. After each 90 minute lecture, a 30 minute Q&A. Hope to see you then!

The next online installment of ESTIMATE: The Reduced Form is coming on Dec 11-12. I've continued to unify and expand regression-based methods to apply to exit, non-binary treatments, DDD, discrete outcomes, and more. All proceeds to the MSU economics PhD program. econ.msu.edu/academics/es...

🚨 We are hiring! ‼️‼️ tenured track assistant or associate prof in economics at university of Melbourne @unimelb.bsky.social welcome applications from all fields (but especially from econometrics) econjobmarket.org/positions?sh...

Thanks Paul. It’s nice to have a paper that’s both elegant (if I may say so) and practically useful. The conclusion is that using a particular covariate balancing PS estimator — inverse probability tilting — renders IPW, AIPW, and IPWRA all numerically identical with a linear conditional mean.

We finished days 2-3 of our #summerschool in #healtheconomics Packed with insights from @jmwooldridge.bsky.social on recent DiD methods StefanieSchurer on policy applications @erdaltekin.bsky.social on the publication process Plus great presentations throughout💪 #econbluesky

First of all, I added an implementation of extended two-way fixed effects (@jmwooldridge.bsky.social 2021), etwfe(), with inputs and outputs aligned with fetwfe(). There's also now betwfe(), which implements a bridge-penalized (includes lasso and ridge regression) version of etwfe().

🚨 One spot just opened up for our Summer School in Health Economics! Top-notch lectures by @jmwooldridge.bsky.social and Stefanie Schurer, presentations, and a great social program are waiting for you. First come, first served – apply now! #EconBluesky #economics @healtheconall.bsky.social

It’s a real pleasure teaching a course with @pedrosantanna.bsky.social. Many are calling us “Fire and Ice.”

To calculate CPI, BLS teams collect 90k price quotes every month covering 200 different item categories. When data not available, BLS staff typically develop estimates for approximately 10% of cells in the CPI calculation. However, in May, share of data in the CPI that is estimated increased to 30%

Met Big Freedia and entourage on an elevator in NOLA.

Thanks so much to the organizers of @hayfestival.bsky.social, my super-sharp interlocutor @jennifernadel.bsky.social, and an enthusiastic audience for making my first appearance at the incomparable books jamboree in the Welsh countryside so enjoyable. Hope to be back someday.

Universal school masking reduced weekly COVID-19 deaths by 0.57 per 100k people. 50 percent of districts removed mask requirements by spring 2022 contributing to 9 percent of COVID deaths that year, from Guzman, Imberman, Filosa, Kilbride, and Malkus https://www.nber.org/papers/w33849

Hugh to Pippin: My kingdom for your fish. Happy #Caturday!

Still time to sign up for ESTIMATE, which starts in less than two weeks. Those near East Lansing can attend in person! An online option also is available. Still planning on the Saturday evening soccer match .... econ.msu.edu/academics/es...

Expected to tune into the Tigers’ game. Got the mesmerizing Dutch Darts Championship instead.

That feeling when the morning tea doesn’t taste quite right, and you get to the bottom of the cup to find a big, white globule.

All of the orange and white beasts found a sunbeam on this #Caturday!

Here's a link to sign up for a free webinar that I'm giving ahead of the Timberlake Summer School in Cambridge: timberlake.co/uk/cambridge...

Thanks very much to Anil Pratinav for this generous review of my new book in The Guardian. www.theguardian.com/books/2025/m...

The method of Poisson regression for estimating lower bound WTP appears in this paper. It dates back to a 2016 report valuing damages from the Deep Water Horizon oil spill. The exponential mean allows covariates, ensures positive predictions, and leads to a logically consistent WTP estimate.

Congratulations to all for their Faculty awards, but special congratulations to our own Riley Acton (@riacton.bsky.social) for being this year’s recipient of the James Robeson Junior Faculty Award for Research Excellence. miamioh.edu/fsb/news-eve...

I enjoyed the conversation very much. Thanks to all at @thebrianlehrershow.bsky.social for inviting me on.

She updated another one, which is my absolute favourite of hers. The attention to detail is just magnificient. If ever you've wondered what a Halloween (or χ²lloween) party among econometricians would look like, this would be it... Notice the level of detail in the background

Workshop alert! We are trying to figure out if enough people will attend ESTIMATE, either in person in beautiful East Lansing, or remotely, in order to make it worth running. It's a fun three days! Rumor has it that this is how one gets a beta hat. econ.msu.edu/academics/es...

Evidence of Trump's impact is everywhere — except, for the most part, in economic data itself. So forecasters are scouring earnings calls, sifting through obscure indicators and collecting anecdotes to try to suss out where the economy is headed. #EconSky www.nytimes.com/2025/05/07/b...

Welp, there goes my 2028 presidential run.

I had a lot of fun talking to @jenniferdoleac.bsky.social on her Probable Causation podcast about the IGNITE program: an innovative jail-based rehabilitative program in Flint, Michigan www.probablecausation.com/podcasts/epi...

Since last week, Harvard has been signaling to the White House "that they would see it in court, where the university would be able to make a strong case that the government’s actions are illegal." My new column on the $53B war chest enabling this defiant stand: www.newyorker.com/news/the-fin...

Congratulations to newly appointed AER Board Members (starting in Jan ‘26): Christiane Baumeister, Ruixue Jia, Michaela Pagel, Evan Sadler, Laura Wherry (@laurawherryr.bsky.social), and Sevgi Yuksel @AEAjournals #EconSky

Pippin: “Sunny may work for treats on #Caturday, but I refuse to.”

Looking forward to being on This Week with George Stephanopoulos on ABC News tomorrow morning at 9am ET.

Checking in from the Lansing “Hands Off” rally!

Seven econometricians, all four census regions represented. At Clemson U.

60 hours now without power. It’s basically like being an assistant professor—only worse.
