    Incentives are against doing long term research outside academia (6 month - 1 year product cycles are norm). Incentives are against doing immediately useful research in academia (can't publish simple methods that solve problems up to 90%). Do what you like, but tradeoffs exist.

    This bears repeating: PhDs who end up working outside the academy (for whatever reason) are not failures. The academy has no monopoly on great and important work. There are great success to be had in other sectors. Enough already with the professional elitism.

    DAE when they bake and get instructions to preheat to 425 instead set the oven to 420 and go “nice” when they hit the bake button?

    If you're a grad student interested in ML, causality, experiments, social impact, or econometrics you should consider this very strongly.

    I have post-doc openings in my lab. Do you want to use empirical methods, design experiments, and collaborate with both large and small tech firms for research and social impact? Have interest in ed tech, fin tech, charitable giving, and social sector effectiveness? Apply! 1/3

    If you are in the NYC area, the NYAS ML Symposium has an easy abstract submission deadline of Jan 20th. I've found the event a fun way to catch up with local ML folks.

    Empirical results showing that armchair theory is often wrong. Eg. minimum wage studies. Great complement to standard 1st year micro.

    Why don’t we have a little poll? I think macro is not foundational to economics (anymore) and should be relegated to 2nd year field classes in the PhD curriculum. If you say yes, please also comment on what if anything should replace macro:

    People said having a puppy would be work. I find this inaccurate. For example, today is a work holiday and yet she still wants to go outside.

    Does anyone in tech believe that the standard coding interviews (“write a BFS in base python”) teach you anything about a candidate? I have yet to meet someone that seriously does. Which raises the question: why haven’t we moved beyond these as an industry?

    But rather, I just ignored everything else that didn't help me towards writing original research. I don't think I ever did well on any of my grad school classes, but who cares, the only thing that counts is papers published, not transcript grades. n/n

    Instead I took 2 extra courses outside the department and started writing papers. Were the papers amazing? No. But parts of them became part of my dissertation and I finished in 3 years. This worked not because I was super smart or something 2/n

    A third way for the first year: *be like water, do the minimum to pass*. I stopped going to macro for the year after they taught RBC (because, really? You want me to believe this?). I got the minimal passing grade on my macro prelim. 1/n

    A quick, personal, thought on the recent first-year discussions. A way to make the first year not a terrible 80/hour a week job is to know all the material already and treat the year as a refresher. In practice many of the students who perform best are doing it this way. 1/7

    In Thai, when we eat something that’s not to our taste, we don’t really say “I don’t like this” or “this is bad”. We say “I don’t know how to eat this” (กินไม่เป็น) Just a big tiny difference.
