Sometimes you just need a friend to tell you this. That is why I have @SethDZimmerman

Check out my new paper in Political Analysis! If you like Mister P, then you are sure to love his sophisticated cousin, Señor P. cambridge.org/core/journals/…

Political scientist friends: what is something you wish you had learned in your graduate methods sequence so you didn't have to cobble it together on-the-job? The well-being of a first-year cohort hangs in the balance...

My wife has me in charge of managing the gift exchange for her friend circle, and each year it gets more challenging to construct a network that avoids repeats, dyads, and cyclic triples. What I'm saying is it's nice to be with someone who really gets me. xkcd.com/2554/

🦜 New Paper Alert 🦜 “How To Train Your Stochastic Parrot: Deep Language Models for Political Texts” with E. Blasingame and Jake S. Truscott, Ph.D. Thanks to Gary King and everyone at PolMeth2022 for a great discussion this morning! wustl.box.com/s/obuoiz4pj7cw…

We're hiring an Assistant Professor in American Politics this year! I will be APSA Thursday and Friday. Please reach out if you want to meet and listen to me gush about how much I love UGA Department of Political Science.

On deck at #APSA2022: E. Blasingame, Jake S. Truscott, Ph.D, and I show you how to (politely) ask GPT-3 to classify your political text data. Tomorrow morning (9/17) at the High Dimensional Machine Learning panel. Join us then, won't you? 🦜

Today's #EPSA2023 fun fact: did you know that for nearly 400 years every student at University of Glasgow was examined orally, "seated upon the Black Stone"? There's a handy 20-minute hourglass built in to the top of the chair. Post-ChatGPT, is it time to return to the Old Ways?

I've updated my Text As Data course materials for 2023. Includes some new tutorials on working with APIs and Large Language Models (LLMs). joeornstein.github.io/text-as-data/

E. Blasingame, Christina L. Boyd, Roberto Carlos, & Joe Ornstein demonstrate that the October 2018 performance quota policy for immigration judges led them to issue more removal orders (both in absentia and merits orders). Read more in #APSRFirstView. ow.ly/LrCw50QoUrw

Thanks to Joe Ornstein and others in UGA Department of Political Science, UGA Department of International Affairs, and School of Public & International Affairs | UGA for having me out to talk about statistical power. A great, engaged group of faculty and PhD students. carlislerainey.com/talks/2024-10-…

Today, we celebrate labor economists, everywhere. (Right?)

My first tweet was a re-tweet. #hashtagging
