About this episode

After 16 episodes of working with Claude Code to study the effect of abortion clinic closures on marriage rates using a natural experiment, so to speak, in Texas called "House Bill 2" and continuous difference-in-differences with a treatment of "change in distance", Caitlin and I start our descent. Caitlin shares her own thoughts about returning a poisson estimator, and we continue to wrestle with the implications of differences in econometric estimators and interpretation, as well as what we are willing to live with. Plus a lot of discussion about the implications of AI for our lives as researchers manages to creep in its pretty little head!
