Just checked my LinkedIn feed for the first time in a while --- way more interesting than Bluesky, way less noisy than X. Maybe this is the place to be?

"I'm going to govern in econometrics" is a winning campaign slogan for the ages.

This paper develops moment conditions for dynamic ordered logit models with fixed effects, allowing consistent GMM estimation in short panels without assumptions on unobserved heterogeneity. @bohonore.bsky.social @weidnerecon.bsky.social buff.ly/WSsNScT

Two insights from Economics:

1 Markets are flawed.
2 Government allocation is often worse.

Two insights for research assessment in Economics:

1 Journal rankings are flawed.
2 Replacing them with something else is often worse.

Exciting news! We’ve been awarded a UKRI Metascience grant to modernize research practices in Econometrics! Our project will develop innovative platforms — including SQARE.org — to enhance research evaluation & collaboration. Stay tuned!

Researcher: "We let the data speak for itself."

Earlier that day:

New working paper with Koen Jochmans and Stéphane Bonhomme: 'A Neyman-Orthogonalization Approach to the Incidental Parameter Problem' is now available on arXiv. We explore bias correction in panel and network models: arxiv.org/abs/2412.10304

We've created a starter pack for all of the economics journals on Bluesky. Please nominate other journals to join the list.

Detecting a clear structural break in Bluesky migration over recent days. The process appears non-stationary with a strong upward trend. We might finally be observing that long-anticipated regime shift in platform adoption.

I just logged in here for the first time in months, and it’s clear there’s real momentum—Bluesky’s community is steadily growing. If this keeps up, we might all be able to close our Twitter accounts soon!

Think the academic journal system is outdated? We do too. Let’s modernize it with sqare.org! Join our initiative in Econometrics by signing the support form. First, we revolutionize Econometrics; then, we tackle the rest. #ResearchInnovation #Econometrics”

📅 10-11 June 2024: Conference on "Recent Advances in Panel and Network Data" in Oxford. If you are interested in presenting, then submit your abstract by Feb 11 to [email protected]. More details here: users.ox.ac.uk/~econ0610/PA...

Years back, I programmed this game where NOT making the first move is the key to winning. It still runs smoothly! However, aside from nuclear war and business negotiations, this approach might be a less practical life lesson than I originally thought.
