Introducing our new lecture series on @GoogleOSS JAX! JAX's high-performance features and compatibility with #NumPy is ideal for quantitative economics that require heavy-duty computing. Access the table of contents here: jax.quantecon.org/intro.html

This new @cgousu paper from our CEO @MaxGhenis applies the @OpenFisca US microsimulation model to evaluate the work incentive and poverty impacts of a proposed cash assistance program in Cambridge, MA. OpenFisca is the model that powers PolicyEngine US.

I loved the @PSLmodels DC Workshop today. #OpenSource policy demos on Tax- Calculator (@MattHJensen), Cost-of-Capital-Calculstor (@jasondebacker), OG-USA (@RickEcon) and @ThePolicyEngine (@MaxGhenis). Thanks to all participants.

Tune in to see @jasondebacker talking about @PSLmodels and @MaxGhenis on @ThePolicyEngine (a @PSLFoundation sponsored project) at the @UCBITSS conference on Friday.
I'm looking forward to returning (virtually) to my alma mater on Friday to share how @ThePolicyEngine is improving transparency in public policy analysis.
Join the @UCBITSS Berkeley Initiative for Transparency in the Social Sciences Annual Meeting here.
