In general I think it's hard to combat scientific misinformation when some of the best research is locked behind an academic paywall, while lots of nonsense gets published free for everyone to read in predatory journals.

Just to say, I noticed that #AcademicBluesky has become a lot more insightful recently. I have great hopes for this place.

To celebrate my moving to BlueSky I am giving away LaTeX goodies.

Always wanted to have a clean, nice-looking, readable, complete and supporting visual track changes reply to referees?

Look no more: the template you're looking for is here: github.com/paolocrosett...

Happy BlueSkying to everyone.

Hi #econsky!

After more than a decade working with .dta and .csv files, I FINALLY checked for alternatives 💾👴

All these datasets have the "same" content. This is mad! 🤯🤯🤯

Can anyone point me to current best-practices?

Thanks!

This is the best comic ever!

Could every seminar organiser put this up on the projector at the beginning of every seminar?

Have a look at Andrei's very cool job market paper (which I was lucky enough to co-author)!

Does 'knowing the right people' help to make it to the top? Absolutely! But here's the catch: it works best if you're from ‘the right’ (read: wealthy) background.

Sunday morning fun fact.

The Danish version of the Great British Bake Off is so popular that in weekends where an episode of Den Store Bagedyst is released, bakeries across the country experience a 8% higher turnover wrt the rest of the year, measured by card payments.

You are welcome! 😄

I’ve released a new version of pyfixest - it ships some performance improvements for CRV1 standard errors. I’ve also set up some benchmarks, and I was pleased to see that pyfixest looks quite competitive:

While prepping my JMP slides, I've made some pretty cool updates to my latex slides template:

- bottom left beamer buttons: \bottomleft{}
- customize theme colors(!)
- full-size figures: \imageframe{}
