Today is a very, very sad day. My colleague Ed Prescott died this morning. Needless to say, he was one of the great minds of modern economics. Ed influenced many of us in multiple ways. He will be missed greatly.

Welcome to @DukeEcon - we are thrilled to have you!

Some personal news : I’ll be joining @DukeEcon in the fall as AP with my husband (he’s a Twitter lurker, no handle). Sad to leave so many awesome colleagues but excited to meet new ones . T-2 months to bring inflation to 2% 😂😂

This week's paper is "How to Build an Economic Model in Your Spare Time", an essay from Hal Varian. While the essay is meant for economics graduate students conducting original research, it contains wisdom that can apply to anyone seeking ideas. 📝 fermatslibrary.com/p/e2e6484d#ema…
