I am completely mistified as to how Alice Nakamura didn't have a page before, I believe that it was @franceswoolley who pointed this out earlier.

Alice Nalamura: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alice_Nak…
One of the pleasures of this project is not only seeing more about the women I know, but learning about many women whose work I have not studied. These economists include:

Ann Fetter Friedlaender: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ann_Fette…
Global Chief Economist for @HSBC is here:

Janet Henry: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Janet_Hen…
When I talked about this project here earlier this year, the suggestion to include @KEBroady was made and one of my students thought that was an excellent idea!

Kristen Broady: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kristen_E…
I am loving the mix of industry/banking/academia here. @EllenHughesCrom is Senior Economist at University of Michigan Energy Institute.

Ellen Hughes Cromwick: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellen_Hug…
@DKyriakopoulou is also here - she is Chief Economist & Director of Research @OMFIF. And looks like a cool #EconTwitter person.

Another account that will need some attention.
Phew, that is it for now!

I am ready to go for a drink with all of these amazing women!
One more! The fabulous @franceswoolley! How did she not have a Wikipedia page already?!

I would like to offer up a game theoretic perspective on why leadership feels that the nomination of #Kavanaugh must be protected at any expense (even the possibility of taking a hammering in the midterm elections) and why #ChristineBlaseyFord’s life must be destroyed.

Thread.
I apologize to those who see this as obvious, but it seems to me that it warrants being clearly spelled out.
The first thing to note is that no one is convinced that #Kavanaugh is of good moral character in the treatment of women. In a single interaction, the Nash Equilibrium is to withdraw the nomination, even at the expense of losing the opportunity to put their guy on the bench.

Thread on algo trading, mostly in the Indian market-

algo trading is broadly of 3 types- execution, market making, directional
Execution algorithms are the ones used by large traders to get the best possible price for their orders. 1
Instead of a trader manually putting in orders, an algorithm does the optimization of when and how to make these trades. Why do you need an algorithm at all instead of a human trader?
Say you're buying 10 lots of Nifty, you dont need an algorithm. Just hit a market order
2
You'll get a fill. But what if you need to execute an order for 1000 lots of nifty?
Exchange doesnt even let you punch in a single order of 1000 lots at one go. Moreover, if you put in a market order for hundreds of lots, you'll impact the price drastically.

For some of us, too, it /IS/ all men, or has BECOME all men. Saying “Not All Men,” then, is telling us our experience isn’t real, which— fun fact— makes you one of those men.

Instead — 👏🏼 ACTIONABLE ADVICE AHEAD 👏🏼 (thread)
Apologize for your gender (leave the part where you blame society for how you’re socialized until later— she may even bring it up herself! We know!), thereby acknowledging & validating her experience, and ask yourself or even her (!) How can I make THIS experience better?

E.g.
Hang on, I have to get a beer.

And dinner— it’s not /just/ bc of this thread! 🤣

From Poverty Central to Prosperity: How the Obiageli 'Oby' Ezekwesili Presidency will lift 80+ million Nigerians out of poverty. #Thread
#Fight4Naija
Today is an exciting day for this campaign as we will be sharing the most important issue in our ambitious plan for Nigeria that shows our readiness to govern from Day One. I will be telling you how we intend to lift 80 million Nigerians out of poverty. #Fight4Naija
We expect citizens to hold us to account for every word we say and every promise we make, not just on our innovative solutions for tackling poverty which I would be sharing today, but on our entire manifesto to be released to the public on Friday. #Fight4Naija

I have been working on radicalism, populism and extremism for 15 years, having published my first (co-authored) article in 2003. Time to take stock and reflect on the field and its gender unbalance #Thread
When I first started doing research on radical right-wing populist parties, I didn’t notice there was a strong overrepresentation of men. The other PhD students of my supervisor @CasMudde were mostly female and I met plenty of talented women scholars at conferences.
Moreover, influential books on radical right-wing populism were published in 2005-2006 by Elisabeth Carter, Michelle Hale Williams @PippaNorris and @TerriGivens by university presses and Elisabeth Iversflaten was publishing groundbreaking work in highly ranked journals.

Today's bird was really hard to find pictures of, especially ones that are in the public domain. But today I wanted to talk about the Opal Crowned Manakin and here's a painting that doesn't do it justice, and a photo by Ze Carmago on birdseyephoto.com:
There are three kinds of Crowned Manakins found in the Amazonian rainforests. There's the Opal, with that bluish crown, the Snowcap, with the white crown, and the Golden, with the yellow (duh). Photos of specimens by Jason Weir
That pretty bluish crown is stunning on the actual bird. It's, again, like other irridescent birds I've talked about, not actually a color. It's a crystalline structure within the feather barbs that is almost exactly like the way an opal is set up. It's got a jeweled head.
