Econ記者 2017刊出嘅文章

早兩日講過Paul Romer在世銀與下屬不和，所以被迫放棄研究部的管理工作。以下有幾個跟進的報道: 1) Paul Romer在報道刊出當日，就正式回歸Twitter，而且有不少有趣的留言: Hey, did I miss anything since October?— Paul Romer (@paulmromer) May 26, 2017 BTW, I guess I’m in kinda in trouble: https://t.co/x6ygqMvjGu— Paul Romer (@paulmromer) May 26, 2017 @OliverSherouse See https://t.co/UW4ZGbbxic and the references from the post on writing. Test for “and” frequency is a gimmick but it sure gets attention— Paul Romer (@paulmromer) May 26, 2017 @t0nyyates Worst noun in Bankspeak: operationalization As Dave Barry used to say, “I am not making this up.” Think about it. “-tion” squared.— Paul Romer (@paulmromer) May 26, 2017 2) 另外，The Economist的跟進報道指出，2.6%的「And 對總字數比率」是學術論文的平均比例，更指出上一期的The Economist的「And 比率」只是1.5%，「合格」有餘。 And another thing: A spat over language erupts at the World Bank | The EconomistA WAR of words has flared up at the World Bank. Paul Romer, its new chief economist, has been stripped of control of the research division. An internal memo claimed that the change was to bring the operations department and research arm closer together. 3) 前Minneapolis聯儲銀行總裁Narayana Kocherlakota就計過聯儲局會後聲明的「And 比率」 ，指最新一份聲明的「And 比率」高達4.6%，較2007年時的2.4%顯著上升。 In May 2017 FOMC statement, 4.7% of the 492 words are "and". In May 2007 FOMC statement: 2.4% of 122 words are "and". https://t.co/mCuT1JCohr— NRKocherlakota (@kocherlakota009) May 25, 2017
