How is economics doing in terms of representation of women and researchers with a region of origin outside North America or Europe? I looked at the top 5% authors on RePEc in the last 12 years. - Only 12% are women - 25% a region of origin other than US/Canada/Europe #EconSky #AcademicSky #PoliSky

It was great to be in Clermont Ferrand to present my work with @econom.bsky.social on local social media activity after refugee arrival. Thanks so much to the organizers and the other participants. It was a super interesting workshop!

Are you using LLMs for your research and want to classify millions of text? This can be a very slow and expensive process. But it doesn't have to be. In my blogpost I explain how to use multiple GPUs and vLLM to analyse thousands of texts with an LLM super fast! #econsky #polisky lnkd.in/di9AbciU

Want to learn how to run your own version of Deepseek R1 or Meta's LLAMA model on a remote high-performance computing server? I wrote a brief blog post explaining how you can install and run the models using ollama. www.paulbose.com/thisandthat/... #econsky #polisky

Can we learn something about gender and age from a person's tweets? Yes! In a new project with Lorenzo Luro, Mahyar Habibi, Dirk Hovy and Carlo Schwarz, we provide a labeled dataset of 20k Twitter users. We show that demographic classifiers using tweets outperform traditional tools.
