@YujungHwang3 I think since they could not distinguish people, they just offlined Fable for everyone. And it is supposed to be online again next Monday?
Enough is enough. Just because you can generate an academic paper in minutes doesn't mean you should.
When your name is on something, you should check every reference and claim before submitting. If you can't be bothered to do that, you should be banned from submitting.
Our next Chicago School in Experimental Economics summer programs are coming! One will take place at the University of Bonn on September 7-11, and the other will take place at the University of Chicago on September 13-17.
The summer school is an intensive one-week course based on my forthcoming textbook https://t.co/wtsdu8HLxq. The goal of the summer school is to deepen scholars’ understanding and knowledge of frontier experimental methods.

@Henkel_Lu is my wonderful co-organizer!
Hi #Econtwitter, I'd like to share the slides from the PhD Applied Econometrics course I just had the privilege to teach at @AreBerkeley
Regression & causality, selection on observables, panel data, IV, RDD --- usual topics but hopefully in a modern way

"Regarding the damage to the 'Admonitions of the Instructress to the Court Ladies' at the British Museum.
The British Museum once defined the restoration of the 'Admonitions of the Instructress to the Court Ladies' (ignorantly and confidently) as a 'Japanese folding screen technique.' After being 'repaired' (damaged) using this technique, one can clearly see signs of silk splitting and powdering on the scroll.
A century ago, the British Museum claimed that due to their unfamiliarity (standard discourse) with the preservation methods of Chinese paintings, they confidently mounted the scroll in a Japanese style, forcibly segmenting it and pasting it onto wooden panels. Due to the nature of the wood and temperature fluctuations, the 'Admonitions Scroll' cracked along with the wood, causing multiple damages. The colophons left by countless literati from the Yuan, Ming, and Qing Dynasties were cut off, and the cut edges clearly show chipping, breaking, powdering, and fading, causing irreversible damage to the 'Admonitions Scroll.'
The British Museum's method of dividing the 'Admonitions Scroll' into several sections and mounting them on wooden panels is tantamount to destroying cultural relics. This irreversible damage to Chinese treasures that have been lost overseas cannot be simply dismissed as 'accidental' or 'an oversight.' Although Chinese and British experts later jointly discussed the technicalities, analyzed the damage using technology, with the most recent discussion in 2013, and in 2014, Chinese experts and UK-based restorer Qiu Jinxian (an expert from the Shanghai Museum) decided to use a mix of starch paste and chemical paste for repairs, the damage to the 'Admonitions Scroll' is fundamentally irreversible.
In 1900, during the invasion of China by the Eight-Nation Alliance, Captain Clarence Johnson of the 1st Bengal Lancer Regiment of the British Army, stationed in the Summer Palace (later evidence suggested he was originally stationed in the East City and went to the Summer Palace to loot), stole the 'Admonitions Scroll' amidst the chaos. Johnson's family later argued that the 'Admonitions Scroll' was a gift from a noblewoman whom Johnson had saved. When Johnson returned to London in 1902, he did not realize the value of the 'Admonitions Scroll.' He took it to the British Museum to have the jade buckle on the scroll appraised. Sidney Colvin and his assistant Laurence Binyon, administrators of the painting department at the British Museum, recognized the value of the painting and bought it from Johnson for 25 pounds. Around 1912-1913, the British Museum commissioned Japanese painter Sugisaki Hidemasa to produce hundreds of wooden replicas. From 1914 to 1917, the 'Admonitions Scroll' was tragically segmented..."
