At the risk of exposing how big of a nerd I am, I was so pumped to have met THE @ChrisPerkinsDnD on my flight today! Big thanks for the photo, will always love that 4e adventure with the robot chicken crew.

A new DP is out: https://t.co/99o3fV5zus. @IsabellaMasetto and @diegoubfal reproduced "Targeting High Ability Entrepreneurs Using Community Information" by Reshmaan Hussam, Natalia Rigol and @BenRothEcon.

Updating some of the exercises for my class “Data Science for Business Applications”. If you have/know of cool (clean) data that can be used for causal inference and/or prediction, let me know! (It’s undergrad level, and topics can be broad).
