Motivated by random coefficients models and using a large combination of methods, I have computed positive weight quadrature rules for the normal and uniform distributions in up to five dimensions with far fewer nodes than the tensor product. 1/8
* Julia rules up to 80 digits precision are at github.com/NittanyLion/Quadr…
* there are also python, r, and stata versions, but they stop at Float64
* the software to find these is at github.com/Nit.../PositiveWe… (bring a big computer) 7/8
* replication package is at github.com/Nittan.../Quadric…
* paper is at arxiv.org/abs/2609.26840
* official rules deposit is at zenodo.org/records/22881864 8/8

Hey #EconTwitter, I'm on the job market with a paper about open source software. OSS is a global public good, widely used and provided by the private sector, but the target of recent industrial policy.

We wrote this paper for a special issue in the honor of Jonathan Eaton whose work and character has been such a great inspiration.
Also unique for a paper to be written by three of Jonathan's advisees! (and all with Indiana-related affiliations!)
Really happy to see our paper online doi.org/10.1016/j.jinteco.20…. Here is a thread about the paper. 🧵🧵🧵 @JIntlEcon @ALashkaripour @Farid__Farrokhi

Emory University Economics professor Caroline Fohlin's arrest video was bad in a vacuum but seeing what precedes it makes it even worse.

Always try to be "sharp". Please check our recent pub, with my amazing co-authors Lixiong Li (JHU), and Desire Kedagni @UNC_econ.
Unveiling risks in non-sharp identified sets: This paper reveals that non-sharp identified sets, contrary to the intuition, could be misleading. It provides a framework to address discrepancies for more robust empirical analysis econometricsociety.org/publi…

Something IO folks should keep in mind!
@eizenb_alon and I are editing a special issue of IJIO on "Market Power and the Macroeconomy"
See the details below
1/2 @conlon_chris and I are jointly editing a Special Issue of IJIO titled "Market power and the macroeconomy"
Recent trends such as inflation or rising interest rates create a nice laboratory to study how the macro environment shapes firms' strategy and competitive conduct.
