@jondr44 @AmandaYAgan @deaneckles That's right, the Judging Judges data isn't public. Data for a similar application in Miami is up on my website in connection with a draft of a practitioner's guide to examiner leniency designs. I believe similar data for Philadelphia is available on @causalinf 's site.

Examiner designs or "judge IVs" use variation in the leniency of decision-makers for causal identification. Are there good public data sets with this setup? I'm thinking of starting some methods research here, and public data really helps.

@Viquibarone @BarbaraBiasi Yes to Valparaiso. Has a very West Coast feel to me.

@BarbaraBiasi I'd say Valparaiso or Concon (full disclosure, not Chilean, but love the area and the seafood!!)

My husband and I have a recurring joke when we get a talk somewhere nice that “we’ll make a family trip out of it” (we know it never happens bc we have small kids). Well…this time it’s no joke: we’re taking the crew to Chile in Nov. have ~5 days of leisure. Where should we go??

metrics twitter: what are your favorite examples of BLP (or BLP-style) discrete choice models fit with true (or "natural") experimental variation?

@jt_kerwin @AudreyDorelien Acceptable response

Twice a week, while the kiddos are in daycare, @jt_kerwin and I go on jogging dates. This is our chance to talk and catch up and learn what the other is thinking about. So it's nice to see this write up with his fleshed out thoughts on the issues with "effective altruism".

@BarbaraBiasi Such an amazing and collegial group!

I have missed this crowd 💙 looking forward to the Fall meeting!

@imbernomics @Andrew___Baker When I traveled to Montreal recently, I took a test in the airport on the day of the flight and the results came back within an hour (which was fine for my schedule). The test cost about 100 Canadian.
