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?

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. (this post is not about SQARE but about DORA!)

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!
