Joint work with @AltenSjoerd, @SilviaHBarcell1, Stephen Dorn, @GalamaTitus, Catharina A. Hartman, @Q_StatGen and @DilyaMuslimova. Read the paper: https://t.co/USnRoDAwjI 12/12

Personality predicts earnings and wealth. But does it cause them? That is hard to answer: personality is correlated with family background and much else. In our new working paper, we use the randomness of genetic inheritance to get closer to a causal answer. 1/12

[Leandro Carvalho @leandroscarvalh]

Genetic effects depend on context and may operate through behavioral and environmental pathways. Results do not imply that economic outcomes are predetermined. 11/12

@NordVPN If this is not a device to prevent inattentive consumers like me from canceling, I do not know what that is

I'm currently reading a difficult-to-navigate introduction of an economics paper.

I admit that I appreciate it when papers follow this simple formula https://t.co/ROkh7iFnMf.

@Econ_4_Everyone John, have you seen the self-driving Waymo cars in the streets of LA? Mind blowing. Haven’t seen them in Westwood. Many of them in Culver City and Santa Monica

I’ve handled the review of > 1000 papers at @nature. Over time, you notice aspects of presentation on which reviewers tend to comment. In the interests of minimizing hassles during review, I offer the following suggestions (a bit targeted to climate papers).

[David Powell @thedavidpowell]

I guess I would have assumed that economists would feel more comfortable on twitter now that no one is reading what they write.
