Does the word "next" in "next weekend" mean the immediate next weekend, or does it mean the weekend after the immediate next weekend? Come to my workshop on causal inference next weekend starting Sept. 27 to find out that and about other things! https://t.co/LsZPUOB8M7

We are hiring (again!). We are searching for up to four tenure-track hires. Two of these are open-field/open-rank. Two are endowed at the full professor level -- one with a focus on applied micro and poverty, the other with a focus on demography.

I would like to point out that family economics is a field, and it does consider the value of housework. It answers interesting questions like "what were the main reasons for women entering the labor force?" and "why did fertility rates recently increase for richer women?"

It's obsession with measurable data and its assumption that value = price. Also often leads them to the sociopathic conclusion that work that goes unpaid (e.g. housework) is worthless to the wider economy, rather than the result of exploitation and/or power dynamics.

So, if you want me to come do a workshop at your school or location in Europe, send me an email! And fingers crossed I can get the books out by then. 6/6

And then with each school, distribute copies of the new book to all guests there. I wrote Yale about it; let’s see if I can pull that off. But I think that’s how I can seed the book, getting copies all throughout Europe as best I can, and also book more workshops. 5/n

I think what I’m going to try to do is see if Yale can get the books ready for distribution prior to Third annual CodeChella Madrid in May and basically use it as a book launch. And then I’m going to try and line up my workshops around Europe, bounce country to county 4/n

That rabbit trail was rewarding for sure. I learned things that I then had to write up and remove. But it looks like it’s done. I’m reading proofs and editing that to send back. Haven’t seen any artwork. But point is, it’s going to be out next summer 2026. 3/n

I deleted the probability and regression chapter but then moved regression into unconfoundedness. It instantly screwed up that chapter and sent me on the longest of all long rabbit trails. Is it a rabbit trail or a rabbit hole? Let’s say rabbit trail due to character limits 2/n

My new book, Causal Inference: the Remix, which updates the first one, the Mixtape, is clocking in at around 750 pages. Two chapters on diff in diff, all up to date, a very long synth chapter, complete reorganization of unconfoundedness, then touch ups and deletions 1/n

So I bet if I scoured the email again, it would be clearer that the hyperlinks in the email itself would’ve had me giving away a password. I’m to the point where I don’t click on anything ever anymore. Nothing. 4/n

Well I logged in and got through all the security, thinking to myself how even could they have gotten my password given I create a new one every time, and sure enough — Twitter does not indicate anyone logged in. You can see the history in notifications and nothing 3/n

This was a fun exercise, and I'm going to keep practicing presenting it, probably to myself, before I integrate it into my workshops, but most likely I'll cover in Causal Inference 2 later this year.

Most of these YC kids dropping out of Stanford to work on AI SaaS slop come from very well off families. DO NOT let them psyop you. Go to school. Fall in love. Make friends. Laugh. Go work at a Series A/B startup. You'll learn and mature a lot.
