No, it was a joke about naturally occurring datasets disappearing like crazy. Too subtle I guess!

As an experimental economist, I’d like to welcome all of my soon-to-be new colleagues who now have no choice but to start generating their own data.

Ha! Obviously only the coolest people got this prestigious invitation.

I just finished a 2 hour meeting of our hiring committee to decide who to invite for first round interviews. As always, I come away with two conclusions:

1. You people do not make it easy to make decisions! So much incredibly cool work being done.
2. The future of economics is in very good hands.

darth™️ (@darthbluesky.bsky.social) not the darth u are looking for

When dogrates moves here it’s all over for X. The reunion of the dogrates/ darthbluesky.bsky.social synergy will be the final blow. Among functional adults at least.

Thanks to starter packs and the Brazilian influx a few weeks back, I now have nearly triple the followers here than I did on Twitter, despite rarely posting anything.

I think it’s pretty clear the network effect of the old cesspool has finally been overcome, for econtwitter at least.

Thank you, that was badly needed.

Did I zoom in on every single one? Yes, yes I did.

Dear people new to #bluesky:

Consider adding a profile picture and short profile blurb before following a bunch of people.

This masks it easier to distinguish you from the bots and crypto scammers.

👌🏼

I’m starting to see more posts here about cool stuff that people are working on than at the bad place. That’s awesome. However, it means that Bluesky needs to implement a bookmark function immediately please!

This week I got an email from one of my favorite students ever. He’s starting the phd program at Minnesota and was having his first bout of impostor syndrome. All I could think was this.

Tobbler, who appears to be their tripod relative, agrees that this was a good idea.

#econsky 📈📉 I have 5 codes that have built up to give to remaining econtwitter refugees. Anyone with more reach than me want to go back over there to give them out?

@dogrates for sure. I miss his interactions with darth

My landline in theory still exists. But there hasn’t been a phone plugged into it for over 10 years ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

If you unfollow 95% of the stuff you used to have in your feed on the old site and keep just the fun stuff, there are still some real gems that come through @darthbluesky.bsky.social
