Grateful to have given the useR! 2026 keynote in Warsaw: "R Under Sirens - Research, Students & Community in Wartime Ukraine." Thank you to the organizers and the many wonderful people I met. We're still here. We're still coding. 🇺🇦 Slides: dariia-m.github.io/r-under-sire...

Inspiring talk from Dariia Mykhailyshyna about teaching and surveying the R community in Ukraine while in the midst of a war. #rstats #useR2026

Another very tough night in Kyiv. 17 people dead, almost 100 injured, multiple residential apartment buildings destroyed, countless people losing sleep and experiencing additional trauma. #UkrainianView

🧵 New WP: "Sleepless Nights, Safer Roads?" Does a salient threat make people take more or fewer risks? I use wartime air alerts in Ukraine - frightening, disruptive, often at night - to test it on real high-stakes behaviour: next-day driving. Link: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.... #EconSky 1/6

Excited to present at EEA Dublin in August - until I found two invited presenters affiliated with Russia's Higher School of Economics. HSE has backed the invasion of Ukraine and fundraised for its military. I feel unsafe sharing a room with people raising money to kill my family. #EconSky

Does anyone know of any medium-sized grants that are open for application that I can apply for for data collection for a paper broadly on preferences, conflict, and political economy #EconSky #AcademSky

Great pleasure to contribute my chapter on #Ukraine to CEPR's Europe 2050 Years ago, #California was the frontier of the “Wild West.” Today, it is the beating heart of innovation and the new economy. In much the same way, Ukraine is poised to become the “Wild East” of the European Union (EU).

T Deryugina, @ygorodnichenko.bsky.social & M Reguant argue a better approach to energy rationing is load limiting via smart meters. Rotational outages function as a regressive tax, but load limiting generates substantial savings while impacting fewer households. cepr.org/voxeu/column... #EconSky

Late spring thunderstorms in Kyiv make a perfect setting for my favorite game of “is this an explosion or a thunder?” 🫣 #UkrainianView

🎙️ New episode of Policy Implications. I spoke with @dariia.bsky.social about her new paper on UA migration to PL and what it tells us about migration and voting. The findings challenge the simple idea that more migration automatically boosts the far right. Listen here: tinyurl.com/52ar3c7k

Our with @zuchowskidavid.bsky.social VoxEU column on migration & voting dropped the same day Orbán lost Hungary election. Exposure to Ukrainian migrants in Poland reduces far-right support. Voters reject anti-immigration rhetoric when they know the people being scapegoated. cepr.org/voxeu/column...

Today I turn 30. Despite Russia’s best efforts, I made it. Thread 🧵

My (awesome) colleagues and I discuss our paper on donations by Ukrainians to Come Back Alive, a large 🇺🇦 nonprofit providing direct aid to the armed forces. tl;dr - civilian casualties cause donations. Huge thanks to @olhazadorozhna.bsky.social and @tderyugina.bsky.social for making it happen!

1/ 🎙️A new episode of Policy Implications is out, and I’m grateful to @tderyugina.bsky.social for stepping in to host this conversation on charitable giving during wartime with Margaryta Klymak, @dariia.bsky.social, @andrewkosenko.bsky.social, and Kathryn Vasilaky. 🎧 Listen: tinyurl.com/4p9zk4r8

I tried to recreate The Economist's recent chart - cumulative population within 1 km of reported strikes during the Iran/Israel war - but for Ukraine, over 4 years of full-scale war. Built it end-to-end with Claude (Opus 4.6). Code, data, methodology in repo below. #RStats #UAView #EconSky

-15°C in Chełm, Poland. Station building closed for over a year. Polish trains delayed 1h+. Passengers freezing. Who steps up? Ukrzaliznytsia 🇺🇦 — sets up an invincibility cart to keep people warm. A railway from a country at war, under daily Russian attacks, saving passengers in the EU. #Uaview

New paper in Economics & Politics: temporary labor migration (H2A/H2B), instrumented with a Bartik design, does not raise GOP vote share - it tends to lower it (especially H2B). Far-right polarization falls; far-left rises. #EconSky onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10....
