Paul Goldberg: Not just a little local difficulty
http://paulwgoldberg.blogspot.com/2015/02/not-just-little-local-difficulty.html
Theoretical computer science, economics, and academic life in general. Writing in personal capacity, not representing my employer or other colleagues. Thursday, February 19, 2015. Not just a little local difficulty. Last week I attended a debate on a proposal for work to be carried out to improve the appearance of the Castle Mill student residences. At Oxford. This article. To the latest issue of the university’s Gazette. I couldn’t give the debate a write-up that would do it justice; it touched on...

Noahpinion: A case where RBC works
http://noahpinionblog.blogspot.com/2015/03/a-case-where-rbc-works.html
Economics, neologisms, and distraction from productive activity. Saturday, March 21, 2015. A case where RBC works. I am a fan of John Cochrane because of his intellectual honesty. He's always very up-front and clear about what his priors and his politics are. But he almost never lets that make him tendentious (the one exception being when he is talking directly or indirectly about Paul Krugman. He goes out of his way to acknowledge alternative interpretations and the limits of knowledge. The Arezki et al...

Noahpinion: When have econ blogs changed your mind about something?
http://noahpinionblog.blogspot.com/2013/07/when-have-econ-blogs-changed-your-mind.html
Economics, neologisms, and distraction from productive activity. Sunday, July 21, 2013. When have econ blogs changed your mind about something? There are quite a lot of strong priors. 1 Tyler Cowen convinced me that the Great Stagnation is real. At first I was very skeptical; citing slow productivity growth as evidence of stagnating technology seemed a bit like low-frequency RBC, and the ongoing boom. Piece of technological stagnation: energy. Cheap oil began to end around the same time that the Grea...

Noahpinion: Did macro theory fail us in the crisis?
http://noahpinionblog.blogspot.com/2015/04/did-macro-theory-fail-us-in-crisis.html
Economics, neologisms, and distraction from productive activity. Tuesday, April 14, 2015. Did macro theory fail us in the crisis? Have posts defending macro theory from (some of) the people who say it failed us in the crisis. Both are good posts, and you should read both. Anyway, here's a quick (and probably incomplete) taxonomy of criticisms people make about macro with regards to the crisis:. 1 "Macro models failed to predict the crisis, therefore DSGE sucks.". Nor are expert predictions any better.

Unpredictably Rational : Decision Theory 101
http://yyasuda.blogspot.com/2010/11/decision-theory-101.html
Selected Keywords: Business, Economics, Finance, Game Theory, Market Design, and Soccer. Let me continue to quote some basics of decision theory (or economics) from the Gilboa's recent book, "Making Better Decisions.". In Appendix A: Optimal Choice, the author nicely illustrates the framework of decision theory and its key concepts such as axioms. The following might be especially helpful for those who are against or suspicious about the fundamental tool of economics, utility maximization. Such that the ...

The Lowly Wonk: Latex: tikz
http://lowlywonk.blogspot.com/2011/09/latex-tikz.html
Politics, lifehacking, data mining, and a dash of the scientific method from an up-and-coming policy wonk. Wednesday, September 7, 2011. In the runup to APSA, I discovered the absolutely fantastic tikz packag. E for diagrams in LaTex. See the gallery of example here.

Noahpinion: The Science of Hippie-Punching
http://noahpinionblog.blogspot.com/2013/09/the-science-of-hippie-punching.html
Economics, neologisms, and distraction from productive activity. Thursday, September 19, 2013. The Science of Hippie-Punching. Hi, I'm Josiah Neeley. You might remember me from such blog posts as The Libertarian and the Union Organizer Can Be Friends (Maybe). And Corporate Personhood: Why It's Awesome. But today I would like to talk to you about an important issue facing our nation: hippie-punching.*. But the practice itself is far older. Bill Clinton, for example, was an expert hippie-puncher. One of th...
