I’ve launched a website on measurement, experimentation, and causal inference: danrschley.github.io/Measurement-... I built it to share methods ideas that are often taught separately, but are deeply connected in practice.

New blog post: LLMs are going to summarize your papers whether you like it or not — and they're going to drop your limitations every time. Here's a proposal for how to fix that (and help with the reproducibility crisis at the same time!): paulgp.com/2026/03/10/l...

Really useful thread for getting started with Claude Code for economists!
Jessica Leight@leightjessica.bsky.social · 7mo agoHesitating very much to put this on the internet, but: any suggestions for guides for exploring Claude code for applied micro analysis (these days I mostly work on RCTs); primarily in R; not a current Github user (I'm open to changing); AND step-by-step from very beginning
A big obstacle of studying fake reviews is that the ground truth is missing. Which review is fake and which is organic? Brett and coauthors provide a dataset that contains the ground truth for individual reviews using a novel method developed over several papers. A really valuable resource!
Brett Hollenbeck@bretthollenbeck.bsky.social · last yr.🚨Free data alert!! 🚨 Please share. Large new dataset of Amazon product reviews, including full text and photos and product characteristics, with individual *reviews labeled as fake reviews*. I believe this is the first publicly available data of this kind. github.com/bretthollenb...

This week, I am happy to present our fake review project at the Tilburg/Rotterdam Workshop on Digital Markets. Such a great group with constructive feedback. Thanks for organizing!
Murat M. Tunc@muratmtunc.bsky.social · last yr.Next, David Kusterer @davidkstrr.bsky.social presents his work on fake reviews. Leveraging a lab experiment, they design a feedback system with reduced incentives for sellers to buy fake reviews. Spoiler alert: Displaying all ratings and inspection seem to reduce fake reviews. Cool project!
Want to run (economic) experiments in your classroom? Follow this thread for nice software recommendations!
Carl T. Bergstrom@carlbergstrom.com · last yr.I'm interested in software for an interactive game theory class. Is there a good software / web package that lets students play basic game-theoretic games (hawk-dove, PD, market entry games, etc) against one another on their phones, records the results, and presents summary statistics?
