    The Person You Are Is Not a Parameter: Markov Chains, Bad Decisions, and the Probability You Become Someone Else (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    I am not a neuroscientist, psychologist, behaviouralist, or relationship coach. I am an economist with an Economics degree, experience working with economic datasets, Stata, heartbreak, and a citation style.We had just spent an entire chapter establishing that an estimate is not a fact, that samples move, that standard errors exist specifically to ruin the confidence of anyone who has become emotionally attached to a coefficient, and that eventually we would have to answer the obvious next quest

    This is Regression Not Repression: What Households Hear When the Central Bank Speaks (opens the original)

    What the Model Missed Series 2: The Model Prices the Average. It Cannot Feel the Distance From It. (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    I read one quantitative paper every day (as part of my day job) and wrote one note about what it found and what it missed. I aimed for thirty papers in thirty days. That’s why it is called “monthly.” LOLThe papers came from the National Bureau of Economic Research, SSRN, and peer-reviewed journals.

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    I am not a neuroscientist, psychologist, behavioralist, or relationship coach. I am an economist with an Economics degree, experience working with economic datasets, Stata, heartbreak, and a citation style.In the last chapter, we collapsed a whole distribution down to a single number, the expected value, its center of gravity.
