Great summary. The economics profession should be doing more write-ups like this that give non-economists an easy entry it the key principles derived from the field.
This is bullshit. Econ is, and should continue to be basically applied math and stats. Better for you to do math and then read these papers. Otherwise you'll be a posturing morherfucker who rectum sniffs his phoniness incessantly.
Firstly George Mason is a shitshow of an economic program.
Econ is nothing but applied math and stats ...exactly the way it should be.
All this Hayekian bullshit is for fuckers who want to posture as professional economists but don't have the skillsets to do math and mathematical stats classes.
All these papers etc are basically for ppl who want to rectum sniff themselves as "serious" .
Phony ass shit. You'd be better served reading and understanding a Real and Complex Analysis txt or through understanding of linear algebra and multivariate calculus at the very least.
I dont really understand this way of looking at the discipline.
Maybe you think of it as applied math and stats but in the pursuit of what? What exactly are you optimizng for here, where mathifying the problem comes first and useful conclusions second?
I did not dignify it with a response then. I do not think that Mr. Narayan is familiar with most of the papers presented. I do not think he even read the titles — “The Simple Economics of Optimal Auctions”? Really?
Thank you for the write up! Non-economist here who’s been roughing an education via public source information. Sorry for the banal question, bur how do you read while walking around? I feel like I’d either hurt my neck or run into things/people.
You'll be better served learning math and then reading shit, otherwise you're just rectum sniffing some fucking economist based on a popularity contest.

Spoken like a true “posturing morherfucker who rectum sniffs his phoniness incessantly.”
Id have fucked your wife, and she'd have given birth to two of my progeny before you could even pass a fucking PhD level econ class.
This is bullshit.

"in pursuit of what"
Whatever you're trying to model.
"What exactly are you optimizing here"
This was a statement on epistemological underpinnings, not a chapter on optimization.., glad you know that word exists. Makes you very smart ..🙄
Think you're a clueless fuck.
I say that as an actual PhD economist, with two other graduate degrees .
If I were you, I'd focus on not being a rectum sniffing, social media posturing, poseur .
Think your mommy's tits are calling for you,kiddo

Don’t read when there’s lots of people around
🙄....Enough with your posturing , morherfucker...
how much actual math have you done?
