Have (or love) an applied Bayesian persuasion paper but hate the full commitment assumption? I’ve got great news for you: you don’t need it — 1/🧵 (link: maria-titova.com/papers/PVI-tit…) 

@ben_golub That thread gets so much better in comments, too

@SonestaHotels what is going on with your customer service? I double booked due to a glitch on your website, called CS within 15 minutes and they cancelled 2nd reservation and said I wouldn't be charged. Got double charged this week and the hotel rep confirms all is correct?

@LucieKalousova Yeah I’m mentally prepared to be double immune to measles!

@andreamoro I’m not sure it will teach me anything but time will tell!

@mariatitova Hilarious 😅. That will teach you to use \newtheorem{theorem}{Proposition} next time instead of search & replace!

A few weeks ago I decided to rename my theorems as propositions using find all -> replace all. Went through it a few more times, paid for copywriting, too. Today I discovered that the submitted paper refers to Black’s“median voter proposition” 🤦‍♀️

@anthlittle You are the MVP because I ignored 100+ email reminders but this tweet made me actually submit lol

@AArdaGitmez @BilkentEconDept You’re welcome to check out the Political Economy of Elections course I’m teaching here: maria-titova.com/teaching/polit… the syllabus should also be somewhere on my website…

@SouthwestAir DMd!

@mariatitova Thanks for your patience, Masha. in order to assist you, please DM us with your confirmation number. -Logan

@ZetaOf1 @ben_golub in theory, as it turns out, Ben missed at least two opportunities

@ben_golub IN THEORY

When the time comes to edit the draft I'm currently writing, I will probably need a whole day just to rephrase all the ``as it turns out,'' just to appear slightly less shocked by my own discoveries...

@KimFeCramer @kerrysiani This is a very useful resource and thank you for that! I just wanted to add that adding major edits to your JMP throughout October and even beyond is very doable and very normal!

Job market guide! What complementary skills do you need on the market? How to prepare the Spiel? My Columbia PhD colleague @kerrysiani (now MIT Sloan) and I discuss these and other questions in our new jm guide. Share it with your colleagues/students! kimfecramer.com/public-goods

@ben_golub Okay but how long did it take you to figure out how to put $\mathbb{E}$ in a tweet?

@anthlittle G Fi is good because you get to keep your American number so you’d still be receiving texts and (spam) calls as usual

@anthlittle May be worth upgrading the phone just for this honestly, it’s very convenient! Another option is Google Fi. It’s like $70 a month for unlimited worldwide data so your phone would just work as normal in (almost) any country.

@renee_bowen_lyn Being a theorist doesn’t define me, being 🏳️‍🌈 defines me

@mariatitova @DKasatkina A brilliant gay Russian theorist, that is.

@BerkouwerS @MarthaOlney @LGBTQ_Econ Me three!

@MarthaOlney @LGBTQ_Econ If you have leftover water bottles, can I buy one? 😅

Are you attending #CTREE2022 in Chicago? Want your @LGBTQ_Econ swag? Look for me near the registration desk 9-9:25, 10:35-12:30. And around after that! I’ll be the one with the @LGBTQ_Econ cloth bag! 😉🏳️‍🌈

@florianederer If only NYT knew 😎

@mariatitova This is GOAT-level stuff. 👏

Apparently, at my most recent talk, I said something like “the judge considers defendants who stole at least 70 cars guilty, but 69 is not a crime.” — I wish I could take credit for this joke but all the props go to my subconsciousness
