@SRamirez68083 Ig I’m just in a metrics bubble, but the type of methods in Angrist & Pischke seem to be the mainstream.
I don’t see much use of Bayesian methods or many people drawing DAGs. Pearl’s approach to causal inference is not the reigning one, at least in econ
I forgot about insurance, which is clearly the biggest expense, but otherwise:
Car was 6k cash in late 2020.
I haven’t kept detailed records but assume I drive ~the US avg of 13,500 miles a year. If the avg gas price was $3.25 over that period, and my car does ~30 mpg, that would be almost $9000 on gas.
I’ve gotten new tires a few times and some oil changes, but that’s easily less than $2500.
@MosheEcon No, the paper exactly reproduces the main methods and robustness tests from papers
Just because I rerun your regression and retrieve your estimates does not mean your assumptions hold. These are different things.
My family moved to the US when I was 8, but by the time I turned 20, my dad was still on an H1B (waiting to get processed for a green card).
Once I turned 21, I would age out as his dependent, despite the fact that I basically grew up in the US.
I thought I'd have to become a code monkey after college, and even that only if I was lucky enough to win the H1B lottery.
Otherwise, back to India.
I had become a huge fan of @paulg's essays in college. I was actually depressed that my desire to start a startup or do something entrepreneurial was basically hopeless.
Working on the promising podcast I was doing as a side project? A beyond impossible pipe dream.
Even after 9 years, my dad wasn't able to get a green card - and the lines were only getting longer over time. I figured I'd be an old man before I could quit some FANG job and build my own thing.
By some miracle, COVID travel restrictions cleared out the lines, and I got my green card literally months before I would have aged out.
If not for this unbelievable coincidence, I would not be hosting the podcast.
In the best case, I would be shifting pixels around in the 3rd sub-sub-menu of some big tech software.
I'm incredibly grateful I made it through.
But it's unconscionable that we put the kids of high skilled immigrants through all this anxiety, and in many cases make them repeat the nerve-racking indentured life trajectory that they had to watch their parents go through.
@NicholasD91704 Dude. It is not your job to decide the allocation of students to grad programs. That is the admissions committee’s job. You should not assume that you know better.
