Great two days at the 12th Atlanta Workshop on International Economics (@AtlantaFed & @EmoryEconomics). Fantastic presentations on trade elasticities, innovation and growth, international risk sharing, and optimal tariffs! Looking forward to next year's iteration!

@FlorinBilbiie David Griffiths book has the same. Let’s not worry about interpretation until the last chapter. Very amusing but I actually found it helpful.

@TradeDiversion This is great. But doesn’t uploading to arxiv do the same trick? Any cons of doing that?

PDFs aren’t enough.. Reading research articles as PDFs on a phone screen is miserable. LLMs consume plain text more easily.
I used Claude to write a pipeline to convert my LaTeX to HTML with the Tufte CSS.

We recently landed our first sponsor for Justified Posteriors and we're investing in making the show even better. Looking for an editor/producer to help take it to the next level, especially with audio / video editing and episode production. DM me if you know someone!

@Bellmanequation @MiamiHerbert Amazing hire! Always great to have more spatial/intl folks in the southeast!

On behalf of the Department of Economics at @MiamiHerbert, I'm happy to announce that Christina Qiu from Yale will be joining us in Fall 2026. Christina’s research examines the economic impacts of digital technologies. christinamqiu.github.io
Welcome to Miami and the U!

Great public service summarizing and benchmarking the currently available tools. This is such a rapidly evolving area of research. I recently had such positive experiences with Google’s document AI. It took weeks rather than months to digitize historical Spanish trade records!
Noah Dasanaike@dasanaike
Social scientists working with materials requiring digitization can only study what machines can read. In practice, that means printed Latin-script documents from well-funded archives. In a new working paper, I show that Vision Language Models used zero-shot outperform every existing OCR system across every script evaluated, and I propose a pipeline for deploying them on new collections. I apply it to six archival collections spanning 1.8 million pages across six countries for under $1,900.

🚨🚨 The early bird deadline to register for the Nottingham International Trade Summer School is approaching. 🚨🚨
Don’t miss this opportunity to move to the research frontier in international trade alongside leading scholars in the field!

Excellent, super topical and provocative analysis! Much recommended!

Tax pass-through is a delicate issue. We must carefully look at firm pricing strategies, transaction data, and demand responses to make progress. 2018 US Tariffs had incomplete pass through and over 50% tax incidence on suppliers. This is currently NOT the consensus.

This is an ImageNet moment for autoformalization
Math, Inc.@mathematics_inc
We are pleased to share that using Gauss, we have completed a ~200K LOC formalization of Maryna Viazovska’s 2022 Fields Medal theorems on optimal sphere packing in dimensions 8 and 24. This is the only Fields Medal-winning result from this century to be completely formalized, and is the largest single-purpose Lean formalization in history. We are honored to have assisted @SidharthHarihar1 and the rest of the sphere packing team in this achievement. math.inc/sphere-packing

@florianederer Im curious to what extent these achievements are driven by technological improvements, better knowledge of the terrain that incrementally becomes available, better skill, or pure increase in audacity…? (Or some factor I’m missing)

On October 15, 2025, Jim Morrison achieved the first ski descent of Mount Everest's Hornbein Couloir, completing what many elite ski mountaineers regarded as the sport's final great challenge.
The footage is absolutely breathtaking.
Tom Isitt 🐝@masaccio60
He climbed to the top of Everest, scattered his partner’s ashes (she died climbing Manaslu) into literal thin air at the summit, then skied back down the steepest route on the mountain. And he’s called Jim Morrison.

1. Who pays for tariffs? It’s a simple question that’s surprisingly tough to answer. We often see only a rough aggregate measure of prices at the border or the retail price, missing many steps in the chain.
