My Game Christmas Tree. What's on yours?

If you are on the market and it feels tough, know this. You are amazing. You have come this far, be proud of yourself. Rejection hurts, but you are not your rejection. Know your worth, shine your light.

This tip will be helpful for anyone who uses Beamer-made slides (or any PDF slides in fact) with a dual-screen setup, where the slides are projected on a big screen from a laptop in extended display mode. And who cares about their neck.

Plugging in the duck race numbers, n=6000, k=100, m=3, we get about a 5% chance of winning. We didn’t win, but on the plus side it was the most rubber ducks I’ve ever seen 🦆

🦆 Last weekend, Regensburg hosted a duck race. 6,000 rubber ducks drifting through a canal. Each duck corresponds to a lottery ticket. The first 100 ducks to finish win prizes. We bought 3 tickets. What are our odds of winning? ➡️ Read more: https://t.co/y9krI8YcqR

Clearly, what changes here is the number of non-winning combinations. If you buy m tickets, then this number is "n-m choose k". And then we compute the probability of winning as before, although it does not simplify nicely.

Econ PhD students doing experiments: are you doing something interesting with your econometrics? I will read your paper and give you comments!

Structural and/or Bayesian not necessary

@erickoester @I4Replication It was, indeed, interesting to work with people you've never met before on a project for a day

[Alex Alekseev @aalexee_econ]

Big thanks to Lenka Fiala and @I4Replication for organizing the replication games in Brno. It was fun. We loved the songs 🤘
