If you’re a PhD your entire existence is leisure time as it would be understood by anybody working before automation.
Bei @reuters.com warnt #ZEW -Präsident Achim Wambach, dass die wirtschaftliche Lage Baden-Württembergs ein „Weiter so“ nicht zulasse und das Land vor einem tiefgreifenden #Strukturwandel stehe. Entscheidend sei, neue Wachstumsfelder zu erschließen.

Bluesky’s CEO is stepping down and saying “the company needs a seasoned operator focused on scaling and execution, while I return to what I do best: building new things."

Two dose-response functions. When probabilities of exposure are not homogeneous across units, we can only partially identify the expected average outcomes from the average outcomes by exposure — even when the exposure map is correctly specified; see Corollary 11.2 — as shown here using data from Cai et al. (2015). AFEOs by exposure (left) only partially identify the EAO curve (right). Lines indicate bounds on the EAO, with red lines being the bounds when outcomes are assumed to be monotonic under exposure levels. Error bars and bands are 95% confidence intervals.
I'm giving the upcoming Online Causal Inference Seminar, this Tuesday 11:30am Eastern.
I'll be talking about different dose–response functions you might want to estimate when treatment effects may spill over from one unit to another.
Tune in & ask questions!

ayatollah is supposed to be an academic position and you can tell this is true because after an extensive search they went with an internal candidate
Pop cultural references in class start off as a way of making the material more understandable and the instructor more relatable, and incredibly quickly turn into a way of emphasizing how old and out of touch the instructor is.
All tibble haters take heed
Non-examinable? 🧐
Particularly funny, if there's a little corner in that field, which has been influenced by "complex systems thinking."
It's funny when fields, which have relied exclusively on verbal, handwavy theory, start to use DAGs and realize what a mess they've maneuvered themselves in.

A fluffy white hamster wearing pink sunglasses sits in a pink toy car with sparkles around it. Text reads: “Me hyping myself up before another day of work” and “the horrors persist, but so do I.”

Achso, war nur Spazierfahrt 😉

The sky is not falling; high-quality platforms (Prolific, Verasight, CR Connect) have low rates of apparent bots. osf.io/preprints/ps... But also not zero; vigilance is very much needed!
Polls have closed in the first of this year's five German state elections, in prosperous Baden-Württemberg. It's looking like a remarkable win-from-behind by the Greens under @oezdemir.de. Full results over the course of the evening.
