The Decline in Transformative Science This trend has been partly reflected in the transition towards “nano economics” -- the thorough investigation of narrow research questions whose results are self-evident at the outset or inconsequential. tinyurl.com/5t5fshk7

tanti colleghi in università mi chiedono dove abbia fatto il liceo: che io abbia un PhD in economia con un passato da perito elettronico (e non da liceale) e che questo non sia neanche pensabile dall'accademico medio italiano parla molto di #merito

Thank you for a fantastic workshop at an impressive venue @tim_ruberg @JasminVietz @almostcertainly @YanaRadeva1 @jackbrusco90 @AndTulli @GiuseppeCappe

I dont think @nickchk gets enough credit for his service to the community in providing coding examples for common, yet advanced tasks IN THREE DIFFERENT LANGUAGES: lost-stats.github.io -LASSO and Machine Learning -Balance Tables -Geo stuff like heat maps And much more. ❤️

The ultimate clustering standard errors paper just dropped: When Should You Adjust Standard Errors for Clustering? by some big names in the field :) academic.oup.com/qje/advance-ar…

We've all seen these maps on the lasting impact of the East/West divide in German society. But you would've been able to spot that divide war before the Iron Curtain! A small 🧵 on Germany history, geology and culture that goes back to Charlemagne and Caesar Augustus.

We document that middle class jobs are disappearing faster in large cities and we find faster skill-biased technical change + demand spillovers is the main driver

Algorithmic collusion, cartel price markups, transfers in fiscal federalism, identity in environmental valuation, immigrant-native wage gap, bioeconomy.. stay tuned on what @UniHohenheim #Econ #PhDs are working on! Great seminar with @GiuseppeCappe @nadjadwenger & others.

Almost three out of four Germans (71%) mistakenly believe that Italy received much more or very much more money from the EU budget than it payed in. In fact, Italy was a net contributor to the EU budget for decades. #CAIN

Well, that was unexpected 😀 #KenStrzepek and #EddieGauntt on "the impossible dream" of modeling #climatechange in #economics @UniHohenheim #ResearchSeminar

The 2015 introduction of the minimum wage in 🇩🇪 -raised wages -had negligible employment effects -lowered East/West wage differences -reduced wage inequality New paper in Journal of Labor Economics won‘t make min wage haters happy. Via @sanderwagner journals.uchicago.edu/doi/epdf/10.10…

3 economist types Fixers solve problems Bean counters count Philosophers play with ideas but don't focus on solving problems But I'm interested in playing with ideas that solve problems and suspicious of ideas that don't #Economics #EconTwitter go.shr.lc/3rW7O94

Important to remember that the wage share (the part of national income going to wages) has fallen markedly across the €zone over the last decades. Lots of room for recovery via stronger wage growth/lower profit margins. chart via @MattVermeiren

#EconTwitter I am putting together a list of open-sourced macro models (DSGE, etc) that are used in practice by central banks and ministries of finance. This should be helpful to economists, #PhD students, and RAs. You can find the list here: github.com/dkgaraujo/Open…
