I was reading Heckman, Urzua and Vytlacil (2006) because in our cookstoves paper/ongoing followup @BerkouwerS and I have a continuous instrument and a binary treatment. I needed to draw some graphs to build some intuition for this result, and figured I'd share them. 🧵

The Prisoner's Dilemma shows that cooperation in international politics (and other areas) is hard. But it's not right, nor is it useful. That's what Harrison Wagner taught us. [THREAD]

scales, which formats numbers for presentation, is such an undersung package. I use it all the time. If you make anything in R that is intended for an audience to see - graphs, tables, RMarkdown/Quarto, it's perfect.

@lrberge @pachadotdev Hi Laurent. Thanks so much for fixest. I have been using it every day. Quick question. Is there an easy way to get the Sun and Abraham (2020) weights from the feols(sunab) 'aggregate' post-estimation command?

Ok, so I come bearing good news for ~93% of you: esp. those bootstraping complex models (e.g. w/many FEs) Instead of resampling, which can be seen as reweighting by a random integer W that may be zero, you can reweight by a random non-zero non-integer W x.com/instrumenthull…

@lrberge @martinmoland Thanks so much for fixest! I have a quick question about the sunab() ATT and the estimate produced by the aggregate() function. Where would be the best place to pose the question? Thanks so much.

California, on statewide basis, is now experiencing its worst drought in observational record going back to late 1800s--narrowly beating out peak of last drought in 2014-15 (as measured by PDSI, a metric that takes into account both precip & temperature). #CAwx #CAfire #CAwater
