Are you using DiD to learn about something *continuous*? If so, then new DiD tools for binary designs don’t seem to help much. But here is something that will help! An update to “DiD with a Continuous Treatment” w/ professional age forecaster and Brant Callaway: psantanna.com/files/CGBS.pdf

Out today in JAMA Network Open, Michael Darden and I explore how individuals select into screening for lung cancer: tinyurl.com/pv6343mf tl;dr: nearly half of all lung cancer screening occurred outside USPSTF recommendations!

Using DiD with continuous treatment, actual treatment distribution may not be close to the distribution of weights used by the TWFE estimator (Callaway professional age forecaster Pedro H. C. Sant'Anna 2024). Lewis JFE 2023 develops a test that the TWFE weights match actual treatment distribution.

The claim that a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve would function like the official U.S. gold stockpile is a great argument _against_ creating an SBR, for as anyone who understands how the U. S. monetary system has worked since 1973 can tell you, all that gold serves _no_ purpose at all.

When you've lost George Selgin, whose work helped inspire Satoshi's paper, and nic carter on strategic crypto reserve (SCR), you probably lost the script on this idea. Here George explains that like the Ft Knox gold, the SCR will serve no use and be costly. (1/5) Kekius Maximus

In 1750 BCE, a merchant took 6 hours to stamp a furious complaint about a botched copper ingot delivery into a tablet. Today an academic spends 6 hours crafting a measured email before deleting it & just writing ‘We appreciate the excellent comments of #reviewer2”

As the editor of Japanese Economic Review, I've been following the vision that the JER's role as the English-language journal of Japanese Economic Association is to introduce high-quality work, especially (although not limited to) related to the Japanese economy, to the world.

The Editors of Health Economics are pleased to announce that we will now accept submissions for literature reviews that synthesize recent research on topics of broad interest to health economists. #HEcReviews More information at: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/journal/109910…

We're launching a new article type at Health Economics - literature reviews. These should be in the style of JEL papers or Handbook chapters, not "Systematic Reviews" common in the clinical literature. We're excited to provide this new resource for our fast-moving field! See 👇
