Code of the Day

The easiest thing in coding is forgetting the commands. Luckily, Google can help. This morning, I wanted to combine the scatters that demonstrate the characteristics of our data and explain why some observations are outliers.


twoway (scatter dlnfixasset dlny) ///
       (lfit dlnfixasset dlny),  /// 
       ytitle(value of change) name(dlnfixa)
  
twoway (scatter dlnfixasset dlny) ///
       (lfit dlnfixasset dlny),  /// 
       ytitle(value of change) name(dlnfixa)
  
graph combine dlnfixa dlnfixa


And the result is a cute picture containing both scatters!
But here is a cool real life photo (from Leisson Café).

The Friday Lunch is the best part of Friday!
(We don't usually get burgers and dessert)

Have nice weekend!

Hi from the Campus!

Image
New students are moving in with the help of their parents. Starting next week, my colleagues get back to work and tomorrow I move to Denmark. The semester starts officially in September. Did you know that our campus is a great place to haunt some Pokemons? They are the reason why I have been spending many hours on campus - even though I'm on holiday! Domus Botnica in the sun light. "Auringon lapsi", the Child of the Sun The sea is a great neighbor.  Fabriikki in the spot light.  Place that I found after spending couple of years on campus. Inner yard between Teknobotnia and Fabriikki. Here will soon be lots and lots of bikes. Building in the front is Konttori. A part of Puuvilla -houses.  Sunbaths on campus. How about studying outside..?  Ready for the semester?

International Women's Day, PhD and Career

Image
Happy women's Day! To celebrate strong women, here is a speech of Nadia Jaber, who explains outside Academia options and tells her PhD career story. Just like her, I have searched online for different kind of career advice that resulted as activating this blog, following couple of blogs and buying a career advice book. The book tells about how to get a tenure track job. However, some outside academia options are starting to sound enlightening. It is going to be interesting to see where I end up, but here Jaber describes how much PhD students need career advices - and how to provide them to yourself: The Economist published a the glass-ceiling index . If you put 100% weight on education cap, Sweden and Finland are on the top. Indeed, when I started my PhD journey, half of the new PhD students in Finland were women. In our economic department, 75 % of PhD students that are present at the university are women. However, the professors and assistant professors are all mal...

Cut the Words - and Draw

Image
The Monday started with the third class of Writing better academic English . My biggest gain was that I can also draw. The upper picture is a visualization of the spillover effect that my dissertation is about. In the middle, you can see the home country (our point of view). We export a product that a trading partner uses in production. In that process, we can learn about their practices (organizational capital) for example. This is the export organizational capital spillover. We can also obtain a spillover effect from imported intermediate products. Importing a middle product is similar than exporting in terms of learning but we learn directly from their catalogs or the technology used in our ordered products (R&D spillover). However, patents protect the newest technology and thus the spillover cannot be strong for recent innovations. In the class, we went through some wordiness and academic writing style. The conversation took different tracks: How to refer age objectively...
