Hey #EconTwitter, I'm on the job market with a paper about open source software. OSS is a global public good, widely used and provided by the private sector, but the target of recent industrial policy.

Paper:

1/ jeffgortmaker.com/files/Open_Sou…Image 2/ I build an empirical model to quantify the global effects of China expanding its OSS policies (and a US response).

Before the model, what's going on in China? Most OSS collaboration happens on GitHub. Less-known is its Chinese counterpart, Gitee, state-backed since 2020. Image

Hey #econtwitter, I'm excited to share a new WP with @conlon_chris about micro data (e.g. consumer surveys) in BLP estimation. Alongside it, we finally released PyBLP version 1.0!

Paper: jeffgortmaker.com/files/micro.pdf
Code: github.com/jeffgortmaker/…
Docs: pyblp.readthedocs.io/en/stable/

1/16 ImageImage Since releasing version 0.1 with our 2020 paper (onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/17…), the most common request has been micro moments.

So we dug through published/recent WPs to see how "micro BLP" has been used in practice. Turns out it's been used a lot. Let us know who we missed!
