Wow, what an amazing database! Also there is nothing hotter than a complete matrix. Note the regional MFNs sticking out.

🚀 Stata #bimap is bumped to v2.3 with a major new feature: 👉 New option statvar() allows us to summarize the information in each bin for a specified variable, such as population. This might be more meaningful than cell counts. The example below shows bin counts and

New publication: Satellite Data in Agricultural and Environmental Economics: Theory and Practice: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ag… Based on our courses for Master and PhD students and including replication code and data as well as many examples of possible applications

A new estimator for all the #DiD fans still here.

The mother of all #DiD papers just dropped and #X is completely silent about it: Difference-in-Differences Designs: A Practitioner's Guide Baker, Callaway, Cunningham, Goodman-Bacon, and Sant'Anna arxiv.org/abs/2503.13323 Comes with a complete checklist of steps!

15 years here 😬 #MyXAnniversary

🚀 #Stata #ridgeline is now bumped to v1.9 with new features: 👍 Sorting on marked peaks is now allowed. If more than one variable is specified, the sorting will be on the first variable. 👍 Marked peaks can now be labeled and fully customized. Test it out! More info here:

All online material that could be cited should have a #DOI. Publishers who also run journals should also DOI #books and #chapters for easy referencing. #JSTOR has some of the best archives but hardly provides a way to auto import citations. Exporting .bib files one by one is

Here we go with Stata 19.5! Looking forward to testing it out in the coming days 😎

🚨 New Working Paper alert 🚨 : Global demand and supply elasticities and the impact of tariff shocks WIFO: wifo.ac.at/en/publication… SSRN: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cf… This study applies the Quadratic Almost Ideal Demand System (#QUAIDS) to the Asian Development Bank (#ADB)'s Multi-Region

Made it to #Innsbruck! #AAR2

In terms of data management, this is possibly a significant update in #Stata19. Given that #frames can now be saved as a collection, managing complex datasets will become easier.

#Stata #alluvial is now bumped 🚀 to v1.5: ⭐️ This version is a complete rework of the base code which should now run much faster. Please note that the color sequencing has been modified and aligned with the routines in sankey. Rerunning old code might give different color
