#econtwitter (especially historians) - I've been reading about the Dutch East India Company, and came across the following anecdote (see pic) but unable to find any details on the story (or a cite-able reference). Any references would be very much-appreciated.

Happy to see this important paper in print!

#econtwitter is there a good primer/guide to having chatgpt or claude (or some AI) convert very basic stata code into something that will generate latex tables? cc John Horton

Just a couple more days to apply for the REStat fellowship. #EconTwitter

I asked chatgpt for a witty/punny title for a book on what does and doesn't work in corporate social responsibility, built on economic theory and evidence. It suggested:

'A CSR Blueprint - Building Profit, Purpose, and Puns!'

There are still tasks that require a human touch

REStat will sponsor 5 early-career researchers in the U.S. who can contribute to the diversity of the economics profession or the diversity of economic research to attend the applied microeconomics meetings at the 2024 NBER Summer Inst.

#EconTwitter Does anyone know where you can find roll call votes for US state-level legislation, for bills that go back as far as 1998?

Adding a couple of specific people who might know! Katy Milkman Eugen Dimant

#econtwitter Are there good studies and/or metastudies of the efficacy of reminders (text message or otherwise) on (a) taking meds; (b) saving; (c) paying CC bills; etc?

This is an inspired choice. Congrats to LBS and to Sergei!

#EconTwitter -- I'm teaching a senior thesis writing class next year. Any resources/ideas/syllabi appreciated - I'm excited to be doing the course but starting from scratch.

Hi #econtwitter ! (or what’s left of it)
