Weekly Collection of Interesting Things (4/24/2023)

paulgp.substack.com

A collection of interesting links, content, and papers I have found over the past week (mainly through Twitter, but other places as well):


Links

  • The amazing Jenny Bryan has some wonderful slides on how to name your files:

  • Julian Reif has an amazing set of resources on how to construct a credible and compelling paper replication package (in Stata!). Would love for a kind and generous soul to do the same in R. He also has a wonderful Stata coding guide

  • Call for mentors in economics!

  • Kieran Healy of Data Visualization: A Practical Introduction (and “Fuck Nuance”) fame will be doing a three-day livestream lecture on designing data visualization on April 27: https://codehorizons.com/Seminars/data-visualization-using-r/



Papers I’m Reading

I’m stuck doing a lot of referee reports this week :(


Code

  • Jeff Gortmaker and Chris Conlon have absolutely amazing code for doing BLP and MicroBLP effectively in Python here: https://github.com/jeffgortmaker/pyblp Make sure to check out the corresponding papers (Conlon and Gortmaker 2020, 2023)
