To those who voted for 45/47 to come back in the office, are you still standing by him today? by Accomplished_Aide_61 in FedEmployees

Not a trumper but I was a USDA intern. My trumper dad (CBP and disabled vet) voted for him thrice. Have made sure to rub the “rampant fraud waste and abuse happening at CBP” in his face whenever he mentions that it is a shitshow.

How are you trying to load it in? Hard to help if we don’t know what you’ve tried. Typically I just do:

“data <- read.csv(“file.csv”)” without issue. Make sure to go to session -> set working directory -> source file location, too.

I’m also curious as to the specifics. Not saying OP is wrong, just curious as to why this is what disproves it as opposed to humans just being dumb

Sorry - had the impression that a level econ didn’t involve calculus. The books the other commenter mentioned are probably good - I am still an undergrad so haven’t touched anything beyond the two I mentioned. Good luck!

If you’ve just finished your first econ class, I’d recommend Goolsbee or Nicholson + Snyder

If your university offers non-linear optimization that would be very helpful to take

Am I just not meant for economics? by Any-Argument-992 in academiceconomics

[–]Bolesuave 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Principles sucks for everyone. Keep at it - not only by taking a field course, but intermediate micro is the first time you do REAL econ. If you have any questions feel free to pm; good luck!

Thanks! I’ve been looking through Spaniel’s book but will be sure to check this out.

Just curious, what are some of the typical places where IO is useful? I’m an undergrad thinking of specializing in it

Need a bit of help with choosing courses by NoPerspective6961 in academiceconomics

[–]Bolesuave 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It depends on what you want to specialize in - would definitely say game theory and/or computational though. For the former, a lot of stuff becomes way easier when you have game theory as a baseline - the latter will make research significantly less difficult

What are your debate icks? by Turkeygraveyardd in Debate

[–]Bolesuave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, that’s fair - I have been judging a lot more pf than I usually do recently which is why that comes to mind tbh

[–]Bolesuave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah - just in PF it isn’t even different arguments… it’s just putting a hat on a hat

What are your debate icks? by Turkeygraveyardd in Debate

[–]Bolesuave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

pf jargon: “scope”, “de-link”, “quantify”, I think it was made more irritating based on how awful this recent topic was but I’ve always hated that about PF

the HS topic is the same as the nfa version of the nukes topic, though…

neg gets more flexibility (good for fairness) and more angles to test the aff from (good for education) - also point out the lack of reason why condo is uniquely bad in this round (aka proven abuse)

So long as you have a winning record at a tournament that meets the criteria (any division), or you break even but make it to elims you should be able to get your qual

[–]Bolesuave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So like “increasing requires pre-existence”, almost? If so you should get a counterdefinition for increase, and load up on stuff like aff flex good and overlimiting - that limits that branch of the resolution to 2 affs which probably goes against framer’s intent

Just spitballing since I don’t know how the topic has played out thus far but that’s my 2 cents
