How is it that the Heckman "selection" model for missing data started being applied to cases with no missing data? It's been a source of confusion over the years. I'm afraid I give it some credence by covering it in my MIT Press book. It's a weird, unecessary model for a corner.

Put differently, we shouldn’t be mesmerized by the advances we make in controlling our environment, nature, and information, and forget that these are technologies being used by humans and very often with the explicit purpose of empowering themselves and controlling others.

Just saw this cool JM paper exploiting randomization in college entrance exam questions to measure cognitive endurance. Then link that to later labor market outcomes (N=2 million obs). Kudos to the author, Germán Reyes! static1.squarespace.com/stat…

Replying to @JohnCKrumm
@JohnCKrumm and I are looking for a PhD student intern on questions about personal data privacy. We’re interested in how people would change their views on the privacy of their personal data if they better understood the consequences of that data being released.

An underappreciated open platform strategy that led to a winning company: Dungeons & Dragons. In 2000, D&D introduced the D20 system making its rules open so anyone could build on it. RPG startups then launched D20 games, boosting D&D and suppressing the birth of rival systems.🐲
