Hi 👋 I'm an applied guy working in social welfare, mostly child welfare, youth homelessness/employment. I work with linked admin data to build better evidence — by trying to do less terrible causal inference — using #RStats (I like DAGS) and have recently jumped on the bayesian meta-analysis 🚂
Excited to get my hands on this new meta-analysis text by @rlgrant.bsky.social @bma-net.bsky.social

Love this!
in my "economics and policy" class (ie, econ 101 for non-majors), I have students earn "participation points" in various ways throughout the semester, and they can earn points by generating econ memes based on course content.
here's a thread of some of my favs from this semester... #econsky
